I have a very old Eotech 511. How old? Not really sure but maybe 8 to 10 years. Had it so long I don't know where all the paperwork, box, etc. are. It has the old round bubble/blister buttons instead of the rubber square ones like the ones now. Wear on the edges but, all in all, works great. Looking to move to an Aimpoint 'cause I just like the look of them better. So... what's the 511 like this going for these days? I can't find them used online. And... BTW... it is a real Eotech. Not the EoFakes that have been sold recently.

Not at the moment. I took my camera to work and forgot it. Will be Monday before I can get it. If I get a chance... I'll slip by there and snag it today but it is unlikely. I need to get pics anyway as I am going to sell it ASAP. Offer it here first then on to e-bay.

Look on the bottom and look at which "revision" model it is... That will give us a better indication of what the worth is. I'm still using a Revision C model, with the blister buttons. LOVE IT! EOTech did send me a new hood however, since the anodizing on the old 511 was turning purple. So, it says Rev F on the side... LOL!

I will probably get one of the tiny EOTech XPS's when I do another AR build, however. Looks be darned, I can shoot multiple targets extremely fast with the EOTech's reticle. So, function is more important to me than looks...

I have to go by work and get the EoTech as well. Realized I forgot to bring it home too.

As for the "look"... I do like the look of the Aimpoint better but I also like the function better as well. Just works better "for me". Never could get used to the EoTech and I have used it for years.

OK... finally remembered to bring this home. Manufactured in 2002... I've had this a long time. Some wear on the edges of the hood and light scratched but the glass is great. Shows all these years of use but it still works....

I would say its probably around $250 ...

That's kinda what I was thinking. Might hit e-bay with it and see if I can move it outta here to get something else.
