EoTech has a new sight tailor made for zombie slaying!

I stumbled on this awesome edition of the unstoppable EoTech holographic sight. They are calling it the XPS2 Zombie stopper. It packs all of the standard features of the Eotech XPS like:

  • Single transverse 123 battery to reduce sight length
  • Shortened base only requires at most 2 3/4 inch of rail space
  • Battery cap is a simple O-ring, tethered cap that offers a better seal
  • Average battery life at brightness level 12 is roughly 600 hours
It also has a killer recticle! It is a 65 MOA ring with a 1 MOA dot in the center. The kicker are the tails coming off of the ring. It looks like a bio-hazard symbol.
Of course the tails add no function. They just make a cool sight even cooler! According to the EoTech website this edition of the XPS2 will be available in April of 2012. I found this video from SHOT Show. Check it out! ( It's just below) I have to give EoTech two thumbs up for this one. A top notch holographic sight with a biohazard recticle is just too cool. The insignia printed on the outside of of the sight isn't too shabby either.

If you are not familiar with EoTech they are worth checking out. I am not going to spew out all of the technical information because every other gun blogger on the internet has already done so. I just want to say that EoTech's are nearly indestructible and add an almost video game feel to putting precious metal down range. They make target acquisition nearly instant and effortless. Now that is exactly what we need when facing a horde of brain eaters!

This post has given me another idea. I am going to add an ultimate zombie AR page to the blog. I will scour the intrnet and provide you, the readers, with zombie themed and components. It will essentially be a list of what you need to build the ultimate zombie slaying AR15. Don't worry, function will surpass aesthetics in the components I list.
