Opinions on R Guns Inc.?

Post by Catbird »

I was looking at ads for various AR accessories in the latest Shotgun News. I was looking at Eotech sights in particular. R Guns of Carpentersville, Illinoislists an Eotech model 512 for $360. This is $40-60 less than anyone else I've seen. A Google search of web forums finds a few good prices/lousy service type comments, but nothing very recent.

I've never dealt with them myself; perhaps that's because I've heard nothing but bad things about them.

Check out GG&G for some steals on EoTechs. If I didn't have an optic for each rifle that needs one, I would buy one from there while their sale is going on.

BoTac seems to have some sales too, with coupon codes.

They're a sponsor of gunboards dot com - might want to look around over there for opinions...

BoTach and Rguns are both companies with a rather lousy rep in terms of service and quality. YMMV, however.
