aimpoint 3x

Post by Grumble and Grunt »

Anyone like this thing? I'm experimenting with versatility and options between this iwth the m68 cco and a 4x32 ACOG with the docter optic red dot mounted on top.

Any real world applications of these optics and experience would be helpful.

I love it. The only draw back is that it also magnifies your red dot.


DS, have you guys tried the quick detach twist mounts made by Aimpoint for the 3 powers?

Nope, but will look into it. The only problem is that most of us have the GG&G PVS14 low mount, so they work for both minus the minor drawback I already mentioned.

When we all get the PEQ 2As in, then I can shitcan the PVS14 mount and go strictly with my helmet mount and PEQ. But we only have enough to issue to our Sniper Team and the operators that use strictly the ACOGs, the rest of us using the Aimpoints and EOTECHs use a second PVS14 on our M4s.

I do like the look of that twist off though......

Thanks
Sorry about that I should had read you other post more closely.

What is like shooting through a PVS-14 mounted on an M4.
