In 2006, the US Army's Armament Research Development and Engineering Command (ARDEC) ran a series of competitive tests to find out if there was another sight out there that could surpass the performance of the existing M68CCO sights. Every manufacturer of combat optics sent samples for testing, and when the results were finalized Aimpoint was once again awared a new contract for 163,000 of this new sight - the Aimpoint CompM4 Red Dot Sight.
The Aimpoint CompM4 is now the latest version of the US Army's M68 CCO (Close-Combat Optic), continuing a legacy that Aimpoint has maintained since 1997. The Aimpoint CompM4 is the finest sight that Aimpoint has ever produced. Improvements include increased energy efficiency that provides over 8 years of continuous use from a single AA battery! The Aimpoint CompM4 incorporates an integral mount that eliminates the need for a separate ring, and can be customized with vertical and forward spacers to fit a varity of weapon systems.
The performance of the Aimpoint CompM4 is optimized for use with all generations of night vision devices (NVDs), but is especially suited for 3rd generation night vision technology. Aimpoint's unique 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 with the smallest amount of energy while transmitting nearly 100% of light in the Infrared and near-infrared part of the spectrum to provide the clearest, brightest image possible when used with a 3rd generation NVD. With 7 NVD-compatible brightness settings and 9 Daylight settings including one extra-bright setting, the Aimpoint CompM4 is ready for duty 24/7
Unique Features of the CompM4:
* Compatible with every generation of Night Vision Device (NVD)
* Super ACET technology allows up to 80,000 hours over 8 years of daytime operation on one AA battery
* 1x (non-magnifying) parallax-free optic.
* Internal voltage regulator allows the CompM4 to be used with any AA sized battery.
* 7 night vision compatible settings and 9 daylight settings Improved rotary switch will not suffer damage under normal use.
* QRP2 mount has twice the clamping force of the original QRP, and the mounting knob is wider and shorter to improve operation, and lessen the chance of becoming snagged on other gear
* Mount base is �keyed� into the body of the sight to absorb recoil
* Mount base screws directly into the sight � no separate sight ring is required
* 500,000 hours of use on NVD setting
* 2 MOA dot for close combat and long-distance engagement
* Matches perfectly with Aimpoint 3x Magnifier
* Unequalled light transmission
* Front lens opening is threaded for addition of the Killflash anti-reflective device
* Submersible to 150 feet (45 meters)
* Vertical spacer included
* Standardized as the U.S. Army�s new M68 CCO.
* Improved adjustment caps are easier to remove, and are protected against impact
* Can be used with a carry handle adaptor for use on all M16-type rifles |
