The US Military's New Smart Optic that Aims For You. The XM-157


The US Army has selected the XM-157 to work along side many new weapon systems including the X-M5 NGSW. This new optic from Vortex has a feature that ranges and calculates your exact hold to achieve first round impacts. The hold is displayed within the optic. The technology is incredible and we're excited to bring you this review.

TrackingPoint Wearables: ShotGlass

When paired with wearable technology, PGFs can provide unprecedented benefits to shooters, such as the ability to shoot around corners, from behind low walls, and from other positions that provide exceptional cover. Without PGF technology, such positions would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to fire from.

By the time that is offered for sale in Canada you'll have to figure out how to mount it to a catapult.

Also in the Garand Thumb video Vortex talks about how it wont be this exact optic that goes to retail but something similar with the same tech.

Here's something that is available now(complete rifle). "Mark your targets" (multiple) after marking targets sweep back on to marked targets and the rifle fires for you.
