Preaching to the choir, brother... TA11 in particular
yah I'd have 9 if I hadnt sold 2 to you
TA11's my personal favorite ACOG - I have four. I really like the SpecterDR and OS4, but I still prefer the ACOG

This is true. I hope to get some Trijicon optics one day. I always opt out for Aimpoint or Vortex. Hard to justify the extra dollars. I've looked through them several times but still don't see the valve.
I always thought guns themselves were the expensive part, but experience has taught me now it the optics and the ammo that cost the most.
As for value, it depends on how and what you use your rifle for. If you demand your tools to be rugged, then the piece of mind coming from buying something of high quality is a reasonable investment. Not to say that aimpoint and some vortex optics aren't, but I will admit my old acog just came with that "ready for anything" confidence.

The Mini ACOGs are a bit better I find.
One of the reasons I love the TA11 so much is that the eye relief is extremely flexible.
And if you've got a recent-production TA33 you don't need, I can reduce your ACOG pile by one more
For the OP.
Mike, how to acogs work with people who have damaged eyes such as myself? For example when looking through a scope with my right eye (shooting eye) I always need to adjust the focus greatly in order to see the reticle properly,crisp and detailed. Acogs have no such ocular adjustment so how would that work?
No local dealers within driving distance sell these things otherwise I would just walk in and see for myself

depends on the model, ta33 the eye relief is quite far, ta11 its actually very good, ta31 is horrible
I also pretty much prefer all acogs to my old elcan specter dr, which I sold.
Since this seems to be the ACOG Appreciation Thread, I would like to ask a question or two...
I am very intrigued by the ACOG the ruggedness of it, the look of it, the pedigree, basically the whole package.
I am relatively new to the AR game... I have had a Colt M4 (LE6 what ever) for over a year and have been shooting it with the Iron Sights. I have just put together a short barreled one as well (10.5").
I am thinking I want an ACOG on the 16" M4 and some sort of red dot or a 1.5x ACOG on the Short one...
Does anyone have any feedback on the Trijicon RMR or the reflex?
I am just learning about Optics... I mostly shoot pistol but have been bitten HARD by the AR-15.
Thanks!!
