This would go on a 16" barreled carbine. I want the carbine to be as light as possible, so I've been eyeing the 1.5x and 2x compact ACOGs. On the other hand, I like the looks of the TA33R8 with it's 3x magnification and the chevron reticle. Even with the TA33R8 and Larue mount ( ) I don't think it'd be any heavier than the EOTech I was using.
I also have another question. Some of the 1.5x models use something called a "special short ring". What the hell is that? Purposes for this rifle are many, including recreational shooting and SD/HD and general SHTF / Katrina type situations. Which ACOG would be a better choice? |

Here is a picture of special short ring mount.
