I love those sights, I just dont like them enough to spend the money. Would rather have another gun, but maybe when I'm older. _________________

Any reason to choose this one over the 512 that uses AA batteries? That is why I went with the 512 but I'm wondering if the battery life of AAs isn't good enough to make up the difference |

Battery life is probably similar if you go with some good lithium AAs. Honestly, its probably not worth the extra money for the 553. The main differences are that you get a 66 foot submersion rating (v. 33 i think), night vision compatibility, smaller size, and a better mount. However 2 of the 4 are pretty pointless (underwater rating and nv)

jgriffith, dude. Underwater rating is super important.
What? You don't hunt for octopus with your AR? Wuss.

Oh, I didn't realize that it was because I posted outside the meta-gun thread. I thought I was special.
Watch out Jg, I don't know if you plan on starting more gun threads, but apparently you have to post in the already existing meta gun thread, or else you get a visit from JT09. _________________ I walk 47 miles of barb wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie, a brand new house up on the road side, and it's made out of rattlesnake hide |
