TA31RCO-M4CP

TA31RCO-M4CP - the USMC's Rifle Combat Optic

The TA31RCO is an Advanced Combat Optical Gun sight (ACOG) for the flat-top M4 carbine (14.5″ barrel) used with M855 ball ammunition.  It has been adopted and purchased by the United States Marine Corps in vast numbers as the AN/PVQ-31B (M4).  The USMC specified the ballistic compensating reticle to enable Marines to rapidly acquire targets at close range yet deliver precision fire out to 800 meters (USMC notes on use of this sight).

The AN/PVQ-31B incorporates dual-illumination technology using a combination of fiber optics and self-luminous tritium. This provides appropriate, perpetual illumination of the reticle without the need for batteries or the possibility of elecrical failure.  The ACOG allows the shooter to keep both eyes open for maximum situational awareness.  For CQB an RMR top mounted red dot sight can be added.
