Hi guys I am trying to buy an 3x magnifier to go with my Eotech and Trijicon RX34.

Any recommendation or personal experience? Do $600 magnifier really beats cheap UTG magnifier?

Low price range: UTG 3X magnifier
Mid price range: Vortex VMT3X
High price range: Eotech G33 or aimpoint

If you have any experience you would like to share let me know! Thanks!
 
I've got an Eotech G33 paired up with their EOTech XPS2 Holographic Sight. Works well by itself or with the XPS2. Good quality glass, flips over to the left so that the shells don't hit it when not in use.
 
I had the Vortex behind an EOTech 512 for 5 years and It was an awesome setup. the Vortex had the most eye relief over the others and that is why I went with it. More clearance from my helmet at work. I used the same Vortex behind an EOTech 552 at work.

Had a VMX3T for one year of competition. It had a slight bit of play in it, and the button to deploy was a little awkward.

Tried the Aimpoint and Mepro magnifiers before choosing with the G33. I found it the most solid when deployed. Been beating it up for three years of competition now. I think it's the best of the bunch.

My brother has the UTG. I was surprised at how good it was for the price. He's only had it a few months, so I'm not sure how durable it is by comparison. The image isn't as good as the G33' but it's 20 percent of the cost, and price is a factor for many.

Nice! So in your mind, what's the biggest difference between G33 and UTG, besides the visual difference and price difference. Thanks. I am interested in UTG or Vortex, G33 is also in my list but I just want to know how much better G33 is compare to the rest. :)
