I'm also leaning towards putting on an Eotech. The 552 sight looks nice but does anyone have any experience with the XPS sights?
Thanks guys!

Congratulations, I don't think you can go wrong with a LaRue product. FWIW - I'm using ARMS 40Ls and GI fronts on all of my serious rifles. My plinkers use MAGPULs because they're cheap. The 552 is nice (I've got two) but do you need to spend the extra $80+ for the NV capability? The 512 does everything except NV and the price difference is 2/3s of the BUIS price. If you just want to spend money, I would suggest the 553 (current SOPMOD version). Better battery life (though nothing can match an Aimpoint) and takes up less rail space. My .02.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
