holosight question

Give me some advice on holosights.

I see that the eotech and the bushnell have the same "name".

What is the difference, are there things to looks for that are desireable?

Who makes a good, yet reasonably holosight, and what is a good price to pay.

Are they durable, and what is the advantages/disadvantages thereof?

The EOtech and Bushnell Holosight are almost the same. The EOTech is the hard use model and is more impact resistent. It's basiclly the military use Holosight.

The guys at the shop were puzzling, "Who is this guy on the phone asking for? Wild or Space?"

The Eotech has a good field of view, has good brightness controls, and its reticle doesnt wash out in bright sunlight, nor against white surfaces.

Don't worry, Ken will hook you up real good with an Eotech. Unless of course, some walmart special reddot for airsoft guns will be sufficient for your needs.
