EOTECH® Holographic Weapon Sights (HWS®) are among the fastest target acquisition optics in the world. Situational awareness is provided through the heads-up display that supports engagement with two eyes open. The system optimizes the operator’s peripheral vision capacity, and even with the sight window shattered or partially obstructed by mud, snow or rain, the sight will still function effectively.
Multiple brightness settings (some models are compatible with night vision use)
Common batteries (AA or CR123)
Long battery life with auto battery check indicator
User-controlled auto shutdown (at 4 or 8 hours).
Holographic optics, internally sealed and fog-resistant for all-weather performance
Rugged — operates with shattered or partially obstructed sight window
Unlimited eye relief, adaptable to various weapon platforms
No reticle “washout” in bright sunlight or against white targets.
Scratch-resistant, anti-reflective coating on external surfaces
Rectangular viewing window for wide Field-of-View (FOV)
Adjustment range at minimum +/- 40 MOA travel at ½ MOA per click.
Both reticle and target maintain constant, razor-sharp focus. HWS delivers an instantaneous, razor-sharp view of both reticle and target – unlike red dots. With HWS, the holographic reticle is perceived by the shooter to be, allowing the shooter to focus on both the target and the reticle at the same time. No more shifting back-and-forth from near to far, reticle to target.
The HWS’s wide rectangular window heightens – not inhibits – peripheral vision. HWS encourages shooters to keep both eyes open, increasing speed-to-target acquisition and enhanced situational awareness thanks to the enlarged field of view.
Non-reflective sight window and holographic reticle visible only to the operator. The HWS’s non-reflective sight window and holographic reticle are visible only to you, the shooter. Engineered for day or night combat missions, there are no mirrored or metal-coated surfaces to give away your position.
Even when the sight window is partially shattered or obscured, the HWS continues to function. Even when the sight window is partially shattered, obscured by snow or mud, HWS will keep on functioning and delivering pinpoint precision. One of the many reasons they’re trusted by America’s elite in the most extreme, hostile environments in the world..
Night-vision-compatible technology provides a radically enhanced sighting system over traditional reflex sights with ultimate clarity even in complete darkness. Many Holographic Weapon System mode is equipped with night vision-compatible technology to allow operators to use a night vision device in conjunction with their HWS. Its multiple brightness settings are nearly undetectable by enemy night vision surveillance systems and promote the ultimate in clarity in complete darkness.
Its large ring with precise aiming dot promotes much faster target acquisition than a single dot, especially under duress. EOTECH offers many types of reticle pattern as opposed to only a single dot. Some designs are fabricated to incorporate multiple trajectory points of aim and range assist features. This variety in reticle patterns to suit a variety of firearm applications.
The “Speed Ring” reticle guides the eye to the center aiming dot for faster target acquisition.
Large rectangular window allows users to see more, aiding in improved situational awareness.
The EOTECH® magnifiers are designed to be used behind an EOTECH Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS®). The magnifiers can be mounted directly behind the HWS. Simply switch the magnifiers out of the way for quick 1X targeting. When used with HWS Models 518, 558 and EXPS (with side button interface), the user can easily operate the sight even with the magnifier engaged.
Choose between units that are powered by two different battery types.
The models that use two AA batteries increase battery life and are more readily available.
The models that use the CR123 lithium battery are more compact, taking up less rail space.
Choose between units that are either night vision-compatible or non-night vision-compatible.
Night vision models have 10 additional brightness settings.
Choose between units that are cross bolt mounted (Hex or Thumb screw) or have a quick-detach lever.
Either style mounts to a standard 1" Weaver or MIL-STD-1913 rail.
Cross bolt models are absolute co-witness; throw level models are lower 1/3 co-witness.
Depending on the model, buttons may be on the side or on the rear of the unit.
If using an EOTECH magnifier with your HWS, buttons on the side make it easier to adjust brightness levels.
EOTECH offers a range of holographic reticle styles (the last digits within the HWS model number indicate the reticle style for that unit).
Depending on the unit, EOTECH sights are water-resistant up to either 33 ft. (10m)or10ft.(3m).
EOTECH offers many types of reticle pattern as opposed to only a single dot. Some designs are fabricated to incorporate multiple tragectory points of aim and range assist features. The variety in reticle patterns to suit a variety of firearm applications.
