For those who want the latest & Greatest.
The newest version of the US Army's M68 CCO (Close-Combat Optic) is the finest
sight that Aimpoint has ever produced. The M4's enhanced energy-usage provides
up to 8 years of continuous use from a single AA battery. The crisp 2 MOA dot
brightness has 16 positions, 9 daylight and 7 optimized for use with all night
vision, especially Gen-3 night-vision technology in current government use.
Aimpoint's band-pass coating on the front lens reflects select frequencies of
red light at near 100% efficiency in order to give the highest possible dot
brightness. The front lens opening is threaded for addition of a KillFlash®
anti-reflective device ( sold separately ). A removable one-piece bikini cover
keeps dust and scratches off the glass.
This mount cantilevers the CompM4 forward to optimize the rail space on M1913
picatinny flattop receivers. The "Tall" mount aligns the CompM4 perfectly in
front of the LT Pivot-Mounted Aimpoint 3XMagnifier, LT-Mounted PVS-14 and / or
all BUIS units. The "Medium" mount provides absolute-cowitness and is compatible
with other USGI-height mounts. The "Short" mount is the correct height for
Piston Uppers, like the HK416.
The combo comes complete with Aimpoint Comp M4, replacement mounting screws with
wrench, QD adjustment wrench, vial of blue Loctite and Instructions.

THIS SPECIAL PRICE COMBO DOES NOT INCLUDE THE AIMPOINT
KILLFLASH OR FACTORY AIMPOINT MOUNT.
Note: Unlike iron sights, on MRD such as Aimpoint, you
must focus on the target, NOT the dot!
Test outdoors with both eyes open ( the dot should appear fuzzy ).

My objective lens is a little bit inclined!
This is not a broken sight! The front lens is a little bit inclined due to the
fact the diode is not located in the center of the sight but it might be located
either in the roof part or the lower part of the sight depending on the model.
The lens and the diode are in line with one and other.
The dot in my Aimpoint sight doesn't look round. Is it defective?
If your dot does not appear to be perfectly round, the distortion is probably
caused by the way that your eye perceives the dot, rather than by some
mechanical defect. Due to differences in the lenses in different individuals'
eyes, round objects that subtend areas near 3 minutes of angle may appear
distorted in a variety of ways depending on the individual and other
environmental influences. Inexpensive red dot sights sometimes have
manufacturing defects that can cause the dot to be an odd shape.
A simple test that can be easily performed will allow you to determine the
cause of the apparent distortion:
Turn the sight on and look through as you normally would. (This test is
easiest when the sight is not mounted on a firearm, but can be performed with
the sight mounted as well. Just make sure that the firearm is unloaded and
pointed in a safe direction.)
While continuing to look through the sight, roll the sight on its optical
axis.
If the dot's irregularities seem to revolve around the center of the dot like
the spokes of a wheel, there is a mechanical defect causing the distortion.
If the dot does not roll with the sight, the distortion is caused in the way
your eye perceives the dot. This is not to say that you don't have good vision.
You can see clearly and still see a distortion in objects this small.
This effect is less pronounced in sights with larger dots. More people will see
the dot in a sight with a 10 minute-of-angle dot as being perfectly round than
will be able to see a 3 MOA dot as round.
Amazing mount and Amazing optic make for a complete package that is more than anyone could ask for. The main reason I opted for this optic over the more popular Micro T-1 is that this model allows you to use easy to find AA batteries (8 year battery life to boot), the smaller dot size and the fact that you can have flip caps (purchased separately) mounted rather than the rubber bikini covers. Only negatives I can think of is that this isn't exactly the lightest red-dot out there and I wish I would have ordered the M4s with the lower profile battery compartment. Still one of the best options out there and Larue Tactical makes the best mounts for any and all rail mounted accessories hands down.
This was my first Larue purchase over a year ago. I have left the red dot on at mid power ever since then and it is still as bright as ever. Going to keep it on until the battery dies in a few years. I love the mount it comes with too!
