Brownells and EOTech Team Up For Exclusive Sight
« on: January 16, 2012, 12:33:28 PM »

Brownells and EOTech, two leading companies in the firearms industry, have joined forces to bring a unique EOTech sight with a custom reticle to the market.
 
 The EOTech Holographic sight, famous for its user-friendly design, superb optics, and rugged durability is a standard for military use.
 
 Brownells is well-known for their industry-leading focus on customer satisfaction and more than 70 years of service to gunsmiths and shooters, both civilian and military.
 
 "We are honored that EOTech has agreed to have their first-ever co-branding venture be with Brownells. We look forward to working with them many more times to bring specialized products to the firearm marketplace," commented Pete Brownell, CEO of Brownells.
 
 The company will introduce the new reticle at the 2012 SHOT Show and will begin delivering sights in the first quarter of 2012. The EOTech will include both the nationally recognized EOTech and Brownells logos.
 
 Rod Coons, Director of Commercial Sales said, "EOTech is proud to partner with an industry leader like Brownells on this exclusive new holographic sight. Product collaborations like this strengthen our industry and provide our customers with a unique product selection."
 
 At Brownells everything is guaranteed period! ...Forever, 100%, with no restocking fees. Founded in 1939, they supply more than 50,000 firearms parts, accessories, gunsmithing tools and ammunition to armorers, gunsmiths, and shooters worldwide. Brownells provides free tech help and there's no minimum order size or small order fees. To place an order, or for more information, call 800-741-0015 or visit www.brownells.com

Did Pete Brownell lose track of the Bushnell Holosight, somehow?  That was the first co-branding from EOTech.

It looks like another XPS with a new reticle. I like it but it is still crazy expensive.

I'm torn between the XPS and the Aimpoint T1

Pic of said sight:

The center reticle is for a 50/200 yard zero and the second dot corresponds to 500 yards.  The "T" dot serves as an aiming point for targets within 10 yards.

98,are you mixing up licensing with cobranding?

I don't remember the Holosight saying anything on it but Bushnell. This new one is supposed to say both Eotach and Brownell's on it.

Probably am.  My point is about that misleading statement, though - This isn't the first EOTech made for someone else, but that statement makes it seem that way.   <dontknow>

The Bushnells do not say Eotech on them..at least I dont think so. This site is "co branded" meaning it says Brownells and Eotech right on it. That may be the distinction.

Thanks edgecrusher. 

Looked at Brownell's again, as I get a discount with them...same price as their retail.   <dontknow>  I like the reticle a bit better though.
