any new specs other than the relocated battery?? Figures its out now, I just ordered an M4 from LaRue yesterday. If its only the battery, I could care less, as I'm a righty, and the upper position doesn't bother me, but I believe it was going to be some other changes as well though, but nobody could say what they were.

It is only battery location, as specified by DoD for the M68.

If no one else could tell you, they weren't in the loop- it has been around for a while now, thoght not among the masses.
Hope this helps.

Hey Pat,

Any idea who's got them?  I've sent out a few emails and so far no soap.

Probably should amend the title to say "Will be available" which is good news indeed

Not sure how much better it will be since peripheral vision is still similarly impeded, just in a different area.

Definitely looks better. (Do the 'other M4' Aimpoints have shrouded adjustment caps?)

The killflash thingey is on a flip cap too? nifty idea, although i thought the KF's weren't supposed to really affect the lighting by much.

Actually Redfisher, i meant what i said- but thank you for telling me what you thought i meant...
They are available now, through Aimpoint and have been since Friday.

From Lightfighter, and posted by FJB- who has direct knowledge

CompM4S has just started shipping to dealers, as well as certain U.S. military units. SKU# is 12172. Limited numbers in stock order now.

You can get them from any Aimpoint Dealer like ATS Tactical Gear or LaRue Tactical.



re vision. The battery box was lowered as a req from mil for the M68 contract.
I have been shooting optical sights- to include Aimpoints, eo's and others for a day or two now, and have never noticed any clutter- but then again, i was concentrating on hitting..

OK, they are available.

But the member I quoted stated he looked and could not find them, nor could I after looking at a couple of my favorite dealers.

Having a bad day or something?

Thanks for the info Pat.

Guess I could have held out for a bit longer but then, I have not noticed any big issue with the current set up either.

Pat, have you had a chance to shoot with both? I can see advantages and disadvantages to both. Do you prefer either one? I have one M4 now and another on the way and I think I'll just keep them both. What I am really looking forward to getting is my T-1 from LaRue. I guess their behind on the T-1 mounts.
