The Trijicon ACOG 3x30 compact riflescope with red chevron reticle is a purpose-built magnified sight designed for shooters who need fast target acquisition without sacrificing situational awareness. Born from military and law enforcement use, this 3-power compact scope delivers the speed of a red dot with the reach of magnification—ideal for mid-range engagements out to 300 yards where you still need to see what's happening around your target.

What sets the ACOG 3x30 apart is its Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC) design, which lets you keep both eyes open while shooting. The red chevron reticle is illuminated by fiber optics during the day and tritium at night, so you're never dependent on a battery. With 1.9 inches of eye relief and a compact 30mm objective, it pairs well with modern carbines and patrol rifles without adding bulk. The scope is matched with Trijicon's Q-LOC mount—a tool-less, one-handed clamping system on a mil-spec Picatinny rail that uses a spring-loaded design to maintain zero even if you forget to fully tighten the knobs. Made in the USA from forged aluminum with a matte black finish, it's built tough enough for duty and practical enough for the field.

The reticle is calibrated for .223 / 62-grain ammunition and includes bullet drop compensation. At 9.8 ounces mounted, weight and profile stay low, keeping your rifle balanced and your sight picture clean. Whether you're running this on a defensive carbine, a tactical trainer, or a hunting rifle in moderate ranges, the ACOG 3x30 prioritizes speed and reliability over long-range precision—a timeless design that still works because it solves real problems.
