This video from SHOT Show 2020 introduces EOTech's new G43 (3x), G45 (5x), and G30 (budget 3x) magnifiers, designed to pair with their Holographic Weapon Sights (HWS). It also details the Vudu 1-8x24 LPVO, a second focal plane scope with a daylight-visible fiber optic center dot, aimed at competitive and tactical shooters. The discussion highlights the benefits of HWS reticles, particularly how the laser-generated reticle remains on the same focal plane as the target, and how the center dot doesn't magnify with the ring when using magnifiers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the new EOTech magnifiers introduced at SHOT Show 2020?

EOTech introduced three new magnifiers: the G43, a compact 3x magnifier; the G45, a 5x magnifier offering increased magnification; and the G30, an affordable 3x magnifier designed for budget-conscious buyers.

What is the key advantage of EOTech Holographic Weapon Sights (HWS) when used with magnifiers?

The primary advantage is that the laser-generated reticle in an HWS stays on the same focal plane as the target. When a magnifier is used, the center aiming dot does not magnify, remaining a precise aiming point without obscuring the target.

What makes the EOTech Vudu 1-8x24 LPVO suitable for bright daylight conditions?

The Vudu 1-8x24 features a second focal plane design with a fiber optic daylight visible center dot. This design ensures the reticle's center dot is easily picked up and remains crisp even in extremely bright sunlight, unlike some red illuminated reticles.

How does the EOTech G30 magnifier differ from the G33?

The G30 is a more budget-friendly option, lacking rubber armor and the flip-out capability of the G33. It features a quick-detach mount but is designed to offer magnification at a lower price point.
