PATROL RIFLE OPTIC (PRO) RED DOT SIGHT

Aimpoint® Patrol Rifle Optic (PRO) was built to withstand the challenging conditions faced by law enforcement officers. The PRO™ has a 2 MOA red dot that allows for fast target acquisition. The hard anodized, high strength aluminum housing provides incredible protection against any physical abuse the sight may encounter. It is vibration and shock resistant and submersible up to 150 feet. The sight is powered by a single DL1/3N battery and ACET technology provides over 3 years of constant-on use at daylight position 7 and even longer on the night vision settings. The Aimpoint PRO comes with a spacer and QRP2 mount that attaches to MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rails without any additional tools.

The optic has flip-up lens covers – the front is solid and the rear transparent – allowing the user to shoot with the lens caps closed and both eyes open in an emergency situation. The PRO sight is fully compatible with all generations of night vision devices and the Aimpoint 3XMag-1™ and 3X-C™ magnifiers. Aimpoint red dot sights are operationally parallax-free, which means the visible dot remains parallel to the bore of your weapon no matter what angle your eye is in relation to the sight. Therefore, the user never has to worry about centering the dot inside the sight. If you have a proper zero, when the dot is on the target, so are you.

Aimpoint red dot sights increase confidence by allowing the shooter to focus on the target while keeping both eyes open, fully situationally aware at all times. Users can achieve first round hits faster with greater confidence.

Great Optic
I'm fairly new to the AR world and wanted a decent red dot sight for my M&P15. An instructor that I took some carbine classes from was a big Aimpoint fan so I did some research and find the PRO a good value v. quality sight. Highly recommend!

NOT TOO SHABBY
I am and have been an EOTech man for years but got this as a gift for my new WW-15 SRC. Finish and fit were perfect. The QR integral mount was very fast and didn't even have a wiggle. The 2 MOA dot took some getting used to after years of the 65/1 EOTechs but found the speed difference to be almost negligible compared with my EOTechs when shooting golf balls from 25 - 75 meters. At work, I use the EOTech almost daily and the 65 MOA ring is probably the fastest CQB sight to be had for anything less than 50 feet. However, with a little more lead throwing, I would feel well equipped with the PRO series. Sighting in was very quick...co-witnessed to my BUIS prior to range time, two quick adjustments and it was off and rocking. Held zero for 250+ rounds and multiple removal / remounts. I even tried shooting at moving targets with the front lens cap closed and was consistently hitting center mass (10"x10")with the super-imposed dot. So even though mine was free (gift)...I wouldn't hesitate to drop the bills for this dot. I don't know about 30,000 hours for batteries; but I always change mine out at 6 month intervals anyway, so I will never know the true battery life. Mine did not come with a battery and it took me a couple of days to find one that would work as most big retailers don't carry the European sizes. They are not cheap, but most things aren't that are worth having. All-in-all, a very decent sight, and I wouldn't hesitate to put it on another "rail gun" in the future.

Battery life
The battery on ours weakened to the point that the red dot could not be seen in daylight after just a few months. The advertised battery life was way longer than this one experienced. Could have been a weak battery, or maybe a bad unit. Put in a new battery and the red dot is bright again. For now, leaving the unit off until sight is needed.
