    Default Aimpoint PRO - Patrol Rifle Optic

    Not sure if it's been posted anywhere else. I did a quick search and couldn't find anything. I was digging around in search of a sight for my AR and came across the Aimpoint PRO (Patrol Rifle Optic) that was just annouced at the the SHOT Show. Thought I'd share the info, since it looks to be a good sight at a good price. Here's some links:

    Curious about it saying, "available exclusively through authorize Aimpoint Law Enforcement Dealers."

    Thinking it is intended for LEO/FEDS only - though that dosen't mean that the common folk won't be able to get their hands on one

    Basically a CompM3 with 2 MOA dot - essentially the AAFES package that they offered some years back.

    Per Aimpoint interview at the SHOT show, The PRO sight will be available to everyone. Nice price point. I hope to upgrade from my M4 clone.

    That's great news. Did they happen to say when it was going to be available? Do you happen to have a link to that interview? I'm sure others would be interested in seeing it. I was thinking about getting a EOTech 517 because the price point was lower than the M3. But based on the MSRP of these being around $440 I'm guessing the retail price will be around $400. Looks like a great sight for the price.

    EDIT: Found a the AR15.com interview:

    The ARFCOM interview linked was what I was referring to.

    Just a heads up, if you're a member over on AR15.com, there's a group buy offer going on for these sights offered by one of the forum sponsors. They are out of stock right now, but getting more in. For obvious reasons the sponsor has asked that no one disclose the actual price people are paying for them. They retail for $400 though, so you know you're going to get it for less!

    I was going to go with an EOTech, but I think I'm going to give the AimPoint a try because I can't beat the price. I'll either love it or hate it. If I don't like it I'll give the EOTech a try.
