Are ACOGs still relevant? Lucas dives into the Trijicon ACOG TA02 + RMR Combo, comparing it to LPVOs, red dots, and other magnified optics. Is it the do-all optic setup for a modern-day minuteman?

  1. I am German and I am always completely freaking out when I see you training in your enviroment. I Would love to train like That. In Germany the Police Special forces would come and sack you after the first mag.

  2. A agree with about everything Rex is preaching. Personally, in my opinion, the RDS on top is NOT an imperative if you don’t possess or plan on purchasing a NOD.

    ACOGs are rugged, great glass, and simple to use. If you have no prior training/experience it’s your best choice in my opinion. Compared to other quality optics, you’re actually saving money.

  3. I just put my rear back up sight in front of the acog instead of behind it… I don’t care if it makes the back up sights slightly less accurate… They are back ups anyways..

  4. Bud at first line of any video. I hate LPVO’s. I have some and assumed I’m just not up to speed but no, they are lousy. The trendy gun friends all tease me bc I’m not on the bandwagon. Maybe just for me, but I don’t like any that I have tried or owned. Elcan specter or ACOG 3.5 w/RMR

  5. The cringe from the Leatherman was much realer than you tossing the ACOG 25’ in the air. I just use a quarter, and yes, I keep a quarter with me for this reason.

    It’s a car guy thing. Nothing worse than leaving the hood to get the correct tool and an even bigger Tool with a Leatherman has your shit all f-ed up before you can get back in time to throat punch them
