    The VCOG is finally here!

    Got two in today! Overall I think they are a good optic and I really like how they integrated the AA battery into the body (extremely rugged). The mount is less than desirable, but Bobro will offer a mount for it (as will other companies I bet).

    How does it look at 1x?

    I really wanted the VCOG but with a BDC reticle, and the same weight, I cannot see it being that big of an upgrade compared to my Vortex.
    It is from the construction of underground FEMA camps. I can't say more because there a guy parked in front of house in an AMC Pacer. He is acting like he talking on the phone, but I know better.

    I have to sign off now & put my laptop in the microwave.

    Thanks. I was wondering since the MK6 reticle was said to be hard to see for some due to being a FFP.

    It is small, but the large circle around it would make up for that I think.

    I thought the mount for the VCOG was the same as what Trijicon is using for ACOGs and was under the impression that mounts that would work for the ACOG would drop right in for the VCOG. Could be wrong, been a while since I even read anything on the VCOG and thought that was the case.

    Grant will you be testing this optic? Right now I am in the market for a 1-6 would really like to here how the VCOG compares to the MK6. I like how it takes a AA but not sure if I like the reticle and definitely do not like the mount. is there a ETA when bobro will have a mount availible for the VCOG?

    At it's price point it makes the Mk6 look like a steal. I guess if it proves itself over time to be nuclear bomb proof it may be worth it.

    Maybe in the future. Call or e-mail Bobro. They probably have these mounts now.
