Last fall I picked up a gently used (unfired) BW-15 LINK (http://proshop.blackwaterusa.com/bw15.aspx) for a good price. It came equipped with a 511.A65/1 LINK (http://www.eotech-inc.com/product.php?id=10&cat=2) Eotech. I'm an Eotech fan and have a 557.A223 LINK (http://www.eotech-inc.com/product.php?id=8&cat=2) mounted on my SIG 556 and a 556.A65/1 LINK (http://www.eotech-inc.com/product.php?id=20&cat=2) on my Colt AR. I use a 3X magnifier with the 557 on the SIG and really like it, so I thought I would try out a nice scope. I took the 511 off of the BW-15 and clamped on a 1.5-6X SN-4 LINK (http://www.usoptics.com/product.php?partnumber=SN4-150) from US Optics. One hour and a couple hundred rounds later, the wife and I actually agreed on something. We love it!!

The reticle is the JNG MOA with 11 pos. (green) lighting. Knobs are US#1 M40 style 1/2MOA.

Here's a couple of pics.

Here's a few of the SIG with the 557 and magnifier.

Looks like we'll be getting rid of the 511 Eotech, and keeping the other two. If anyone is interested in the 511, I'll let if go for $325 shipped in the lower 48.

Here is the 511

Yes Jeff very cool. I like the BW-15. That is an interesting rail system. You scope looks good and I know it's one hell of a nice piece. I like that setup better that the magnifier mounted behind the 511.

Isn't $325 pretty close to retail value for the 511?

Where?

Suggested retail $409
Most places discount to $380
Amazon $360

I'll let you have it for $300 + $25 shipping/insurance to the lower 48. :rolleyes:
