I'm undecided between the TA01NSN or the TA31F. My shooting is <200 yards, mostly <100 yards. I'd like to use it for everything from CQB to the occasional 200 yard paper plate. My rifle is a 16" A3. Does the 4X magnification of the ACOG throw things off with close range shooting? Would I be better off with a 1X? There's clear advantages to a 4X, but I'm guessing there's a compromise in quick, close, target acquisition. Thanks...h |

I was reading up on that BAC feature on the TA31. Looks sweet. Anyone use this model ACOG? Do you like it? Is it worth the extra dough over a model w/o the BAC? Like the TA01NSN? Then again, if I'm gonna spend 800, why not spend 900 and get the 31 huh? Plus a dust cover, kill-flash, and rubber eyepiece, it's a $1,000 scope! WOW! Should I get an ACOG or what! (I'm trying to talk myself out of it, but it's not really working!) |
Damn you all for your knowledge and choices!  I see where this is going! I'll end up refinancing my house to buy 10 of these mofo's.Haha! Well, I've honestly not looked into the compact ACOG's at all. I know nothing about them. I assume 'compact' means they're smaller in size and probably have a smaller field of view? If so I'd rather stay with a larger ACOG... |
The 1.5x16 has the largest field of view among all of the BAC models (full size & compact) and is nearly half the weight of the TA31. |

YMMV but I dont think a .5 increse in magnification justifies the sacrifices you make going from a dot sight to a scope. The 2x and 3x ACOG compacts have similar eye relief and FOV to the 3.5 and 4x fullsized ACOGs. That would be my suggestion in the compact line. |
