I do have to say here, Bruce is right. I bought a Bushnell and went through this whole saga. I ended up reselling the Bushnell taking a slight loss and bought an Eotech 512. Also consider the 512 'AA' model is even that much more ... D3Lta (lol) than the 511, 502 or Bushnell. Its actually much larger than the 502/Bushnell with the thick shield and added length, looks way more rugged/imposing.
As for justification - after spending so much already getting a gun to look the part, might as well accept the extra hundred here and hundred-fifty there and just be totally happy with it. Personally, I'm happy I went the extra mile with the 512. FWIW, the protective hood is peace of mind itself, its a hefty little chunk of metal, and the rubberized buttons beat the touch surface style on the Bushnell for ruggedness too.
I'd be more worried about what got hit by my Eotech than the other way around, I couldn't say the same about the Bushnell. I got mine for around 375 CDN NIB from ebay, but after tax/ship/duty it'll be around 425. Worth it!
