    Anyone get a new Aimpoint ACRO P-2 yet?

    New thread just to gauge who has one yet, when they got it, and what their first impressions are. Please the other ongoing thread for complaints or other issues, I'm interested in first (or even second hand) knowledge of the product.

    Thanks!!


    ETA- I have one ordered, but have not received it yet.

    First impressions:

    Pros:
    - Fixed the buttons position (no more accidental press when you grab the sight) & feel
    - Brighter dot, longer battery life to match the competition
    - Turret/windage adjustments have audible clicks
    - Looks a bit better
    - Optional flip covers & ARD for carbines (yay!)

    Cons:
    - Still the same size
    - Only 3.5 MOA red dot is available, wish they offer different dot sizes and/or colors/reticles
    - Likely long wait time for delivery due to strong demand

    Do you personally own one? When did you receive it? Can you post a pic of the new button position as it appears on yours please. Thanks!!

    Got one through their Trade Up Program. I was impressed earlier this year when they fixed my 20 something year old Comp 5000, but when they decided to make it right with the P1 performance I was totally sold.

    Everything is pretty much the same, sans the adjustment knobs. Clear and bright.
    When you're done saying what you're saying, stop saying it.

    What is the battery life? The first generation had a battery life that is unacceptable in a law enforcement setting.

    When did you get it? Please post a pic of the one you personally own, and of the adjustment buttons/ knobs. Thanks, the last person who said they had one seems unable to post pics in the thread or hasn't seen the request. No one else who states they have one has seemed to be able to either.

    Thanks!

    Please keep any comments about the first generation ACRO P1 in the other thread. I'm trying to gain info about the upcoming model which doesn't seem to have been released yet.

    Very curious as to the brightness of the P-2 with new battery, so if anyone can comment on that, much appreciated. How useable are the brightness settings? Is it like the "improved" T2 where only the top 2 or 3 are useable compared to previous gen?

    I am also interested in this thread. I too wish they had a smaller dot size.
