EOTECH 512
I have the EOTECH 512 on my M&P 15OR. Is it worth it to sell this and upgrade to a newer style EOTECH? My 512 is only about 1 year old and has only seen 300-350 rounds tops!

No. The only reason you might want to upgrade would be to change reticles. If you wanted a 2 or 4 dot then I could understand. Otherwise, I see no value in changing.

It would be worth it to me, if you were willing to sell it at a loss, like for half price of what you paid for it...

The other reason to change would be to get a smaller form factor.

I'll pay you 50.5% of what you paid for it.

I'm not sure how you meant this, so I will just say thank you and I'll be here all week!

Looks like you're approaching the service life of an EOTech.
Rastoff makes a good point about upgrading to a more advanced tactical reticle.
A lot of guys have upgraded to the EOTech XPS2 Z - ZOMBIE STOPPER II. Hard to believe EOTech could have improved upon their original ZOMBIE STOPPER, but they have! Definitely one of the best reticles on the market. I can't understand why Aimpoint doesn't make a zombie reticle. How can they be taken seriously without the latest reticle upgrades? 
Check out this bad boy! Reviewed by Poisen Stinger.

Finally! ChattanoogaPhil gets it. Man I thought we'd never see the day.
Yes, absolutely, how can Aimpoint be taken seriously unless they make a super cool and nifty reticle like this?
Just for the record, I'm so happy with my PA MD-ADS that I sold my EOTech. There may be an ACOG on the horizon though.

Meh, that Eotech zombie reticle is still only one color... Until they get with the program and offer 36 colors, they can't be taken seriously for zombie killin'!

Yeah, the least they could do is offer it in green.

You had your chance. I offered it here first and for substantially less than I ultimately sold it for. Carpe Diem

What's that, something about Carp and perdiem? You were going to sell it for a fish and traveling expenses? 
Sorry, couldn't resist. As the owner of a LGS once told me, "it ain't a museum, if all you want to do is look, the display will change".
