Accessories to rifle scopes for hunting or military applications
Anyone that has been at a firing range and done long range shooting is probable aware of the issue of scope glare. For those that want to understand the sniper/counter sniper training, one of the first things you are going to learn is how to conceal your weapon in and environment. The achilles heal of a sniper can sometimes be the optics that he needs to bring with him. Scope glare is what ends a snipers life and in most situations, there is always the potential that a rifle scope will give off some level of glare. Trijicon was aware of this when they were deploying the ACOGS in the MiddleEast and the flash kill is a must for those doing street work. For police work or certain environments the high visibility of the Trijicon Fiber Optics cable can also have it’s unwanted attention, and some actually cover there so they are only partially exposed.
I have scope covers on all of my optics because I’ve put guns away in gun safes and had things fall on them where if they did not have covers, I might be out several hundred if not thousands of dollars. Trijicon Rifle Scopes are for military or hunting applications. The Trijicon Accupoint gives you a unique reticle that is highly visible, but most of this is about preference. Trijicon reticles can vary dramatically depending on what the optics intended mission is. There are traditional long range shooting optics with Mil-dots and are also heavily used for designated marksmen as well as sniper roles
