Well, that's something we don't see every day. What does the reticle look like? How does it work?

It is a large black inverted post with tritium at the tip of the post. Very easy to spot during rapid fire compared to a finer point. Last time I had it at the range I was hitting 12" steels at 500 meters with 55 gr free handing.

Ohh, that just isn't going to work.
Trust me I tried the Trilux and it doesn't belong on an AR and its 30 years out of date. Put it on a FAL where it belongs and put an ACOG or Aimpoint on the AR. |

Not only that, but the combinations of mounts will not hold a zero.
And the reticle itself will not allow consistant shot placement. |

I have owned this scope for 3 years now and have never had an issue with point of impact change.
I have found that its a chin weld not a check weld but it is a repeatable spot and works fine for me. Maybe one of these days i will get a A3 upper to lower it down but for the mean time it gets the job down with no problems. |

funny........  On the serious side, that is a fine example of a Bushmaster Shorty AK reincarnate- and a great photo Tell us about the optic |

Bushmaster told me that I could remove the brake and get the barrel threaded by a local gunsmith without a major hassel.

That must be a 16" thing-the 14.5" HBAR AK barrel is threaded and blind pinned-remove the brake and screw on a flash suppressor-no threading required. Nick |

Don't quite understand what your saying here. Theres only one mount being used for the optic and its the one designed for the optic. Dont know how he could have a COMBINATION of mounts when he only has one and its designed for the setup he has it used for.BTW: Nice rifle... Ive always liked th Trilux... Looks neat and unique and does the job. Dont know that id have used it on a A2 model but thats your choice.. |

A3s were rare when I ordered this setup back in 1999.
The tritum is past its half life but in total darkness you can still see a faint red point which works just fine. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=www.pkymasehist.fi/suit9.jpg&imgrefurl=www.pkymasehist.fi/suit.html&h=136&w=400&sz=7&tbnid=O0pC36ka0DgJ:&tbnh=40&tbnw=120&hl=en&start=5&prev=/images%3Fq%3DTrilux%2BSUIT%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26rls%3DGGLG,GGLG:2005-46,GGLG:en%26sa%3DN This site shows the reticle. The Isrealis actually issued them on A2s. |

very nice, not including the trilux (which is nice) I really like that carbine, just something about a basic CAR makes me happy, just need to get rid of the 74 brake

Yeah! To say the least..  I played around with one and mounted it on an AR...... Then put it right back. BTW the one I was playing with was Israeli |
