Apparently that is why some innocent bystanders were shot a few months ago. I guess the press believed that putting the sights on backwards made the gun fire out that back. Ala Matt Helm in the Silencers.
The EOTech 512, 552, etc. with the illumination controls on the back are difficult to turn off and on if a back up iron sight is used. By turning it around, which doesn’t affect how a holographic sight works, the sight can be manipulated with the off hand.
