EIGHTEEN YEARS WITH USSOCOM … AND COUNTING

A giant screen with a forgiving field of view is extremely advantageous in a CQB environment and one of the many reasons the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) continues to equip its elite soldiers with EOTECH holographic weapon sights (HWS). These sights are credited with enhancing combat effectiveness when shooting in nonstandard positions, in and around vehicles, in tandem with night vision devices, and while teaching those new to firearms how to shoot at a more advanced level. A large unobstructed field of view allows lightning fast target acquisition while providing the shooter with plenty of observable area around a target. It’s also forgiving when tracking the aiming point during rapid-fire follow-up shots.

DON’T BE FOOLED

We’ve all heard various optics manufacturers proclaim field of view doesn’t matter when shooting with both eyes open.
