Clarity vs. Magnification for combat optics
There has been a lot of changes in the way people mount optics on firearms, years ago it was rare to find a zero magnification on a combat optics because to some people it didn’t make sense to have a scope that didn’t magnify. Now that we know that most combat ranges are well under 75yds, medium range optics like the Trijicon ACOGS actually slow you down. They are a great optic but the Eotech gun sights really have a better reputation for close range fighting. I’m still waiting for Eotech to come out with a holographic sight that is solar powers like the Trijicon optics but it’s not been built yet sadly.
The biggest selling optic we have going for us right now are the Trijicon TA26 scopes. The first thing our customers said when they picked up this small lightweight Trijicon rifle scope, or should we call it optic, was that it was light and very clear. The green reticles are far outselling the red ones but the definition between these optics and what you get from a blurry red dot optics are drastic. Many people with good eyesight really don’t like red dots because they can obscure your target and sometimes not give you a fine point.
