Shortest EoTech model sight yet! This sight is smaller than the former N-cell battery sight (511/551) and runs on a single 123 battery. It also has a longer battery life than the N-cell style sights. Smaller, lighter and always fast with three Reticle options. With the new single battery configuration, the XPS uses less rail space than ever, leaving more room for rear iron sights or NV mount.

The Model 512 is the most popular model HWS. This tactical optic is perfect for agencies or individuals that want the best in Close Quarters Combat speed and versatility, without the need for night vision compatibility.

AA Battery model (supports Lithium and Alkaline) - 65 MOA circle with 1 MOA aiming dot Reticle pattern - Includes rugged aluminum hood assembly and knobbed, tool-less mounting bolt - Interfaces to 1" Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) rail

EoTech model 512-1 features sight hood guard and easy install knurled knob and side mounted adjustment buttons to allow use of EoTech magnifiers.

• Buttons on left side of sight (not in back) to work specifically with magnifiers
• CR123 Lithium batteries; model with 65 MOA ring/1 MOA dot Reticle
• Raised 7mm base with knurled cross bolt
• Interfaces to 1" Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913) rail

The HWS is designed to withstand Mil-Spec drop tests and still remain fully operational and hold zero. The HWS has been extensively tested in a punishing recoil simulator generating 3,500 G's of acceleration in less than 0.5 milliseconds (the recoil of a .454 Casull revolver) as well as various environmental chambers).

The Heads Up Display is constructed with a 3 layer, shatterproof laminate glass that is 3/16" thick for added durability. Additional protection of the Heads Up Display is provided with a "roll bar" rugged hood.

No Revealing Signature - The HWS does not emit any muzzle side position revealing light signature...the projected Reticle pattern is visible only to the operator. Even Gen III night vision equipment cannot detect muzzle side signature of the operator's position. All optical surfaces are flat and treated with anti-reflective coatings eliminating additional muzzle side signature due to reflective glare. No need for costly glare elimination filters that reduce the effective light transmission and further dim the target area.

Electronic Features

The HWS uses state-of-the-art digital electronics design. Twenty brightness levels ensure proper brightness control in either low light or very bright sunlight. An on-board microprocessor provides automatic battery check indicator, up/down brightness scrolling and programmable auto shutdown features. All electronics are fully encapsulated in shock absorbing resin compound.

The Holographic Advantage

The holographic patterns have been designed to be instantly visible in any light, instinctive to center regardless of shooting angle, and to remain in view while sweeping the engagement zone. Reticles are designed as large, see-through patterns to achieve lightning quick reticle to target acquisition without covering or obscuring the point of aim.

The HWS employs a true Heads-Up Display that eliminates blind spots, constricted vision, or the tunnel vision associated with tube sights. All user controls are flush to the HWS's streamline housing with no protruding knobs, battery compartments or mounting rings blocking vision at the target area. True, 2 eyes open shooting is realized. Instant threat identification is achieved by maximizing the operator's peripheral vision and ultimately gaining greater control of the engagement zone.

In holography, all the information required to reconstruct the reticle image is recorded everywhere in the Heads-Up display window. If the window is obstructed by mud, snow, rain, etc., the HWS remains fully operational , with point of aim/impact being maintained. Even in such extreme cases where the laminated window is shattered, the HWS is fully functional! As long as the operator can see through any portion of the window, the entire Reticle pattern is visible on target...the operator can still engage with confidence.
