Aimpoint’s new offering features an enclosed design for added ruggedness.<\/p><\/div>\n

Swedish optics company Aimpoint has joined the pistol-ready micro red dot world with their new ACRO Series, an enclosed sight designed to survive in the toughest environments.<\/p>\n

Unlike other miniature red dots, the ACRO (which stands for Advanced Compact Reflex Optic) features an enclosed system that has been fully tested for shock, vibration, temperature span and other environmental stresses.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe development of the Acro P-1 sight sets a new standard for compact pistol mounted reflex optics,\u201d said Aimpoint AB President Lennart Ljungfelt in a press release. \u201cThe commitment we make to our customers is to develop the highest performing red-dot sights available. The Acro P-1 optic fulfills that commitment by providing the lightest and most rugged enclosed red-dot sight in its size category on the market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Aimpoint says they tested the ACRO with 20,000 rounds on a .40 caliber pistol and designed the unit to be submersible up to 25 meters.<\/p>\n

The battery can be replaced without removing the optic from a pistol.<\/p><\/div>\n

The optic features a 3.5 MOA dot that can be kept on intensity power 6 for up to one year with a CR1225 battery. The battery can be changed without removing the unit from the pistol.<\/p>\n

The ACRO is night vision ready with 4 NVD settings and 8 daylight settings, one of which is designed for use on extra bright backgrounds.<\/p>\n

The unit is 1.2 inches wide, 1.2 inches high, and 1.9 inches long. It weighs 2.1 ounces, including the battery.<\/p>\n
