Wixom, MI—The compact Trijicon® ACOG® series is loaded with crucial features for operators needing a durable, lightweight, small, magnified optic. Adding to this line, Trijicon is introducing the GEN2 Compact ACOG. Retaining the same legendary features as traditional models, the GEN2 ACOG offers state-of-the-art enhancements; proving the greatest performance can come in the smallest of packages.
GEN2 models now feature easy-to-use finger adjusters, watertight gaskets and a redesigned forged-housing, offering unprecedented reliability and durability in the most compromising conditions. Reconfigured mounting base options ensure compatibility with full-size and Compact ACOG mounting adapters. This provides the widest possible range of mounting positions for enhanced flexibility and use on a multitude of firearms platforms. Select GEN2 models will feature a standard and low base height to better accommodate a variety of firearm platforms. Trijicon has also added a 3x24 model to the Compact ACOG line. This bonus model offers a 24mm objective lens, 1.4 inches of eye relief and precise 1/2-inch click adjustments at 100 yards. The 3x24 ACOG features popular Crosshair and Horseshoe Dot reticles, both calibrated for 5.56 and 7.62x39.

You're welcome.
Just saying... 
To stay on point, these new "low" mounts, just how much lower are they than the standard? One of the things keeping me from using Acogs on other firearms such as the FAL and M14-type has been the fact that the standard Acog height causes you to have a strained or no cheek weld unless the rifle comb is built up. If these are down in the realm of a standard scope for height, it would definitely be worth taking another look. |

ACOG is so reliable that I wonder if there will come a time when all service weapons like the m4 carbine will be equipped with one. If you lack an optic, you are at a severe disadvantage. In almost all conditions.
I think an ACOG is even more reliable than iron sites, which I havent used in 15 years, except on a shotty and even there aimpoint rules. I like the ta11 model 3.5x35mm but not sure it is the best choice, or for everyone, a 1.5x or 2x is a good one size fits all (or none). Even a compact is light years ahead of iron sites. |
