Thoughts on the new Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic (PRO)?

Thanks, Grant!

Aimpoint PRO

[chadbag]

From someone else on another forum. Grant, can you confirm or debunk this statement...

"I just got an email from someone at Aimpoint reading "The PRO has been reeled back in and it is now only available for departmental purchase following the efforts of our LE sales team..."

There is actually some substance to this. In an email I just got from Aimpoint government sales team it talks about the rules on this item. I am sure Grant will get it as well.

It does seem to allow for individual officer sales through my reading of it.

Just got mine ordered. Thanks Grant! I didn't see any special m4c pricing, but I am happy to get an aimpoint pro. It was in stock, and gtg, so if You guys are worried about the email I suggest You place Your order immediately. I am stoked! I bought a counterfeit m2 yesterday for $300, so this made my day. I wish I ordered the PRO to begin with.

I have been debating picking one of these up now for a while. I guess I better get to the bank tomorrow and put some more cash in the checking account.... I really don't wanna miss out on the chance to get one!

Im still blurry on the co-witness...

Dunderway- "It should be lower 1/3 (or close). At lease that is how the original QRp w/spacer is, and this one looks a tad bit higher" "But it includes the spacer, which should put it in the lower 1/3 or close, unless I am mistaken" "It sits just as high if not higher than an original QRP with the added spacer. To me this means it should not be an absolute co-witness but somewhere between a Larue 150 and absolute CW (lower 1/2 if you will)"

mx124-"Comes with a QRP2 mount. Should be Absolute Co-witness"

Thursday as quoted form elsewhere-'"The modular QRP2 mount includes a removable spacer that indexes the sight at the optimal height for co-witness with the standard iron sights on AR15/M16/M4 Carbine style weapons"'

C4IGrant-"Just verified that these are an absolute co-witness"

Gecko 764-"It's absolute co-witness"

any more input to clear this up?

It could be its own co-witness. Meaning in-between an absolute and a lower 1/3. I just stuck it on a rifle and glanced at quickly. It wasn't a lower 1/3 co-witness for sure.

To be honest, it really doesn't matter.

The letter I got was a little bit bigger group than just LEOs. Most govt connected organizations including mil and NG were on their list as well as "security companies". Various groups "and their employees"
