Whether it is for law enforcement or the military, the AR 15 is surely one of the most versatile weapon platforms used in a wide range of combat operations. It has become extremely popular with shooters because of its usability and ability to precisely configure itself in the way shooters are comfortable with. This implies you can optimize your AR15’s usability through various upgrades including stocks, grips, and triggers!

If you are using the AR, the most suited magnification range in riflescopes would be anything from 3x to 6x. But while choosing the optics for this versatile rifle, you need to know whether the optical device is enhancing shooting accuracy, speed or effectiveness or not. If these three basic aspects are fulfilled, you can go with the particular scope. And with Trijicon scopes such as ACOG and Accupoint (categorized in the telescopic sight group), you can rest assured you will achieve the three objectives when you pair them with the AR 15. Both are known to be the best for taking shots at targets located at medium to long range distances. So let us explore a bit more about these two kinds of scopes that you can use with your AR-15.

This is one of the highest quality sporting scopes from the house of Trijicon. Boasting of a rugged construction, it comes with superior quality glass, illuminated reticle and varied magnification ranges. Shooters can engage target quickly with this scope because of the presence of an illuminated reticle (crosshair pattern or triangular-post). As no batteries are used, shooters can remain in the hunting field as long as they desire, without worrying about recharging the battery for illumination. Besides, this Trijicon scope makes superior light transmission possible with the help of multi-layer coated lenses. Users get long eye relief as well as quick focus eyepiece.

The Trijicon Accupoint comes in variable magnification ranges and objective lens diameters. There are four basic model categories and they are 1-4×24, 2.5-10×56, 3-9×40, and 5-20×50.
