2010 SHOT SHOW OPTICS REPORT - Ilya Koshkin & Scott Berish

[PPGMD]

anything with a tube is going to be sensitive to head position. If you've spent much time running around in awkward positions and ambidextrous shooting then you'd be well aware of the issues of quickly picking up your dot or getting proper cheek weld. The EOtech design simply has more capability for a quicker dot aquisition.

I really do like the Aimpoint dont get me wrong. I'm speaking here in terms of theoretical and practical systemic advantages not in terms of quality or training issues.

My experience with the two sights, is that they both require your eye to be in the range where the aiming point is visible, the Eotech has a larger window, so it can be slightly easier, but it's not a huge enough difference to say that Aimpoint will die, and Eotech will survive. I think Red Dots and Holo Sights won't be going anywhere any time soon.
