I've been looking for an optic to mount on my carbine, and I've narrowed it down to an ACOG TA31RCO or Aimpoint with magnifier. I was at Cabela's the other day when I found a TA31RCO-M150CP Acog, so I decided to check it out. Upon inspection the first thing I noticed, was that the reticle looked like it was rotated a couple degrees off center. To clarify, the BDC (and tip of the chevron) was tilted a few degrees off to the right, and the windage lines were canted an equal amount of degrees off from horizontal. All of the pictures I have seen online (including Trijicon's website) show the BDC oriented perfectly vertical, and the windage lines perfectly horizontal. I asked the clerk if the off kilter reticle was normal, and he did not know. In a nutshell my question is this, is there something wrong with this particular TA31RCO, or is the slight cant of the reticle normal to this model?
