I have three AR's with three different optics...
Three AR's with 3 different optics. One with a ACOG, one with an Aimpoint, and one with a Burris 1-4x MTAC scope. While the ACOG and Aimpoint are great, I find the Burris MTAC to be the most useful. It has an illuminated reticle, that at least on mine, works really well in daylight or at night, and is easily adjustable for brightness. Really well designed reticle that allows hits out to 500 yards, and shows red when illuminated and black when illumination is turned off. On 1x it is like using a red dot sight. On 4x it is like using an ACOG, but with a reticle that is more user friendly to me..... I don't think the MTAC is as rugged as an ACOG, but it's worked well for me so far and is a lot more friendly to the wallet.....

- Gotta agree with Boge, the ACOG is an amazing optic. - Warhawk, 2012-11-27, 22:53
- I like the ACOG also - but I admit they are expensive. -
