The last time I checked the MSRP on a bushnell gen 2 holosight is ~179 in Canada from wholesale sports. Personally I think it's a waste of money to buy a site for your gun unless you have enough mags/ batteries/ BB's, boots, BDU/s Chest rig / Water bladder etc. Those other items are a far higher priority.

I can't find any resources online for this, so correct me if I am wrong. A milsim paintball enthusiast (and tactical shooter, tactical nylon manufacturer, ex mercenary) told me that you should never mount a real steel optic onto a paintball gun or GBBR because the recoil systems function in reverse of a real firearm which the optics are designed for. Thus rattling the optics to pieces. He has 2 dead eotechs to back up this claim.
