Has any body had a go with a Trijicon VCOG ? looks a trick bit of kit ?

Over and above the 1-6 magnification, it's likely not much more capable than a Vortex PST. Not much of a 'looker' either if you ask me. Would be interested to know of anyone selling these in the UK, too.

$2000-2200 = £3000

Received a good review in the November 2013 edition of Guns & Ammo. The optic has been designed for professional use to meet a DoD requirement for fielding a single optic capable of handling medium and short-range scenarios on an AR-pattern carbine or other next generation carbines such as the ACR Patrol Carbine and FN SCAR CQC. In the US, its available with seven different reticles calibrated for use with 5.56x45mm, 7.62x51mm and .300 Blackout.

Thanks, need to try one ?

The Bushnell Elite Tactical 1-6.5x24 (BTR-1 or BTR-2 reticle) and the Meopta ZD 1-4x22 RD (K-5,56ZD reticle) had both been recommended to me by those who shoot carbine in the USA.

Any links to them ?
