Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the EOTech EXPS2-0 Green optic?

The EOTech EXPS2-0 Green features an enhanced QD mount, a CR123A battery for reliable recoil resistance, and a green holographic reticle (68 MOA ring with 1 MOA dot) for rapid target acquisition. It's submersible to 33 feet and made in the USA.

How does the green reticle on the EOTech EXPS2-0 compare to red reticles?

Green reticles, like the one on the EXPS2-0, are often perceived as brighter and easier to see in daylight for some users. However, holographic technology and green illumination generally consume more battery power than traditional red dot sights.

Is the EOTech EXPS2-0 Green compatible with night vision devices?

No, the '2' in the EXPS2-0 model designation signifies that it is not night vision compatible. EOTech's '3' series optics (e.g., EXPS3) are designed for use with night vision devices.

What is the mounting system and co-witness height of the EOTech EXPS2-0?

The EXPS2-0 features an enhanced quick-detach (QD) lever for easy mounting and removal. It provides a lower 1/3 co-witness on standard AR-15 platforms, meaning the iron sights appear below the holographic reticle.
