I just wish I would've gotten the 1 moa dot around a 65 moa ring instead of 2 one moa dots around a 65 moa ring. If you can save up the cash get the ACOG. It's such a great sight and having the 4x magnification is awesome.
ACOG- Best
Eotech- Good, especially with a magnifier
Aimpoint- wouldn't use it for airsoft (YMMV)

Please elaborate on your experience with your Comp M4 usage.

Now when I say that. When we weren't on mission the dust covers on my AP were on and the entire time I was in Iraq with my EO on I never got more than a smudge on my lenses. The dot on my aimpoint also has an artifact that wasn't there until our second week in county. It looks like a "P" filled in rotated 45 degrees counter clockwise. Battery life is excellent though. I've never changed the batteries on mine.
YMMV. I know guys that swear by them, others think they'd be better off pitched in the sand.

Huh. I hadn't heard that about an Aimpoint's dot before. I've had my Aimpoint M4s for about two years now. Haven't noticed anything with the reticle. Of course I haven't used it as much as I'm sure you used yours. I still don't treat mine nicely in any sense of the word and the lens bikini has been off for a few months.
I did pick up a OPMOD EXPS2-0 a month or so ago but have yet to try it, other than in my hand. I'm waiting for my next upper. Who knows when that will be.
