I think the better question is why not a buis?? a good folding buis is around $150 and is out of the way if you dont need it. Am I missing something? If you can afford an acog with a larue mount then surely it isnt the price of a buis thats putting you off.
If that picture is accurate then he indeed did have a backup sighting system. His carrying handle (never actually used to carry) with his iron sights. These would have already been had a good BZO cause every Marine has a good BZO I even would occasionally take my detachable carrying handle out of my patrol pack and reconfirm my BZO. All that outstanding Marine would have to do is unscrew the ACOG and continue to gain fire superiority.
I have never seen an ACOG fail, and we had them on all our M-4s, M-16s, and M-249s. However Murphy always wins. Two is one, one is none.
Well its only a 9 mm.
Well when I put two through your heart and one through your head you wont know the difference.

Why not? as stated in the other thread, sometimes you run into certain combos that won't work.
I believe one of the common ones, is an ACOG, that needs to be pushed back, due to its eye relief, leaving no room for a buis. Or another magnified optic, with large occular housing, that make fitting a buis difficult. making room for a pvs-14 or magnifier, behind red dot sight.
If i ran into an issue like above, I wouldn't loose any sleep over not having a buis.

If you're going to get a BUIS, you'll also need to get a QR mount for the ACOG. Very little sense in going with the stock mount.
I've always felt that that was key.
If you put BU irons on while maintaining an optic mount that requires a tool to remove, one would be wise to find a way to mount that tool to the gun, as well.

Unless something has changed and for what it's worth the Marine Corps doesn't issue a BUIS for ACOG equiped weapons. That doesn't mean they never fail in combat but it must not happen very often.....
