AR = Everything

[43.6N]

How are your eyes?
Lpvo is nice, don’t get me wrong.
But don’t rule out an acog as a durable, simplified, do everything optic. 3.5x or 4x.

I do not like, or choose to use flown through cans. If a gun is gassed properly they are not needed, and they are loud. All of the US cans to date have had no issues in function on over gassed 10.5” AR’s.

@Formidilosus maybe drifting the thread a bit, but what would be your can recommendation on a 6 ARC gas gun? Would you recommend the Reaper for a setup where a OTB isn't feasible?

For the cost of an ACOG, you can get an LVPO.

You couldn’t give me an ACOG, it’s one of the worst optics I’ve ever had to use.

I've been hunting with a 4x ACOG (TA31RCO) with an RMR for a while. It fits my needs pretty well and is a good option if you don't mind the eye relief.

I was given one for work in the military, I couldn’t make it work no matter how hard I tried. I think my issue was due to having to wear a helmet, as a civilian I could probably make it work, but I’d rather have an LVPO.

I have the complete opposite opinion. I loved my ACOG.

I have yet to use an lpvo that's good at anything. They all have parallax issues at one end or the other. Maybe I'm just dumb and acog was simple, but I found it way, way easier to use.

I know several folks that really dig the ACOG, to each their own. I am just not a fan of a fixed 4x scope, and trying to make it do everything I need it to do.

I spend all of my time shooting with an LVPO, so I don’t have an issue shooting with it. I’d probably be able to do the same with an ACOG, but I am just not willing to invest that time into something I just don’t care for.

There’s a bunch of suitable gas gun cans. If you don’t need to full-auto it, yes I would choose a lighter printed Ti hunting can. The Realer works well on everything I have put it on.
