If you go with the 31 the CQ issue will be moot. The illuminated reticle will provide an adequate POI with minimal practice.

I was reading up on that BAC feature on the TA31. Looks sweet. Anyone use this model ACOG? Do you like it? Is it worth the extra dough over a model w/o the BAC? Like the TA01NSN?
Then again, if I'm gonna spend 800, why not spend 900 and get the 31 huh? Plus a dust cover, kill-flash, and rubber eyepiece, it's a $1,000 scope! WOW! Should I get an ACOG or what! (I'm trying to talk myself out of it, but it's not really working!) |

The BAC feature on the TA31 is well worth the extra money. I am a big fan of the compact ACOG series (own 3 of them) and feel the BAC feature and the fiber optic aided reticle really enhance the performance of an already great scope design.

If you just gotta have the Trijicon, I would recommend the 1.5x 16 Compact ACOG w/ the amber triangle.
I would much better in the house than the higher magnification ACOG's. |

Booyah, I agree with Gambit, he named the perfect combination in my humble opinion.

Damn you all for your knowledge and choices!
 I see where this is going! I'll end up refinancing my house to buy 10 of these mofo's.Haha! Well, I've honestly not looked into the compact ACOG's at all. I know nothing about them. I assume 'compact' means they're smaller in size and probably have a smaller field of view? If so I'd rather stay with a larger ACOG... |

Hokie,
The prices you quoted seem a bit high. Check out Donnie at sableco.net, best prices around and you'll get it quick! |

My first choice, too. With the higher powered ACOG’s, make sure you can live with the eye relief. |

I got the TA01 nsn and wish I had gotten the TA31, I cant complain I got a great deal but if I had it to do all over again I would get the 31, I have no problems shooting both eyes open and hitting up close with it.

The 1.5x16 has the largest field of view among all of the BAC models (full size & compact) and is nearly half the weight of the TA31. |

YMMV but I dont think a .5 increse in magnification justifies the sacrifices you make going from a dot sight to a scope.
The 2x and 3x ACOG compacts have similar eye relief and FOV to the 3.5 and 4x fullsized ACOGs. That would be my suggestion in the compact line. |
