Trijicon ACOG 1.5x24 Compact Riflescope with Amber Crosshair Reticle

The Trijicon ACOG 1.5x24 compact riflescope is a legendary low-power optic purpose-built for shooters who need fast target acquisition and situational awareness without sacrificing optical quality. This isn't a compromise—it's a deliberate design that trades extreme magnification for a wider field of view, superior eye relief, and the ability to shoot both eyes open. Whether you're running a patrol rifle, home defense carbine, or precision short-range hunting gun, the 1.5x magnification keeps your target in context while the 24mm objective delivers enough light to perform reliably from dawn to dusk and beyond.

What sets the ACOG apart is its dual-illumination system: fiber optics harvest ambient light during the day to glow without batteries, while tritium provides passive illumination in low light. The amber-colored crosshair reticle uses the Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC)—a ballistic offset that lets you dial in for multiple distances and hold center on target across a practical range without constant turret adjustments. The 16mm exit pupil and generous eye relief mean you can shoot with both eyes open, keeping you aware of your surroundings instead of tunneling through a scope.

The included Trijicon Q-LOC mount pairs with your Mil-Spec or NATO Picatinny rail using a one-handed, tool-free clamping system. The spring-loaded design holds zero even if you loosen the knobs, and the 6061-T6 forged aluminum construction is rated for military drop testing. Weighing just 8.4 ounces with a low-profile footprint of 5.8 inches, it won't burden your rifle or slow you down. The matte black anodized finish is durable and non-reflective. The package includes the scope, mount, protective scopecoat, lens pen, manual, and warranty card—everything you need to deploy it immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the box?

The ACOG 1.5x24 ships with the riflescope, Trijicon Q-LOC Technology mount, protective scopecoat, LENSPEN lens cleaning tool, ACOG manual, warranty card, and Trijicon logo sticker.

Will this scope work on any AR-15 or rifle with a Picatinny rail?

Yes. The included Q-LOC mount is compatible with any Mil-Spec or NATO Picatinny rail, making it a universal fit for ARs, shotguns, and other modern rifle platforms. The one-handed, tool-free clamping system means you can mount and remove it without gunsmithing.

Does the ACOG require batteries?

No. The dual-illumination system uses fiber optics to gather ambient light during the day and tritium for passive illumination in low light and darkness. There are no batteries to replace or maintain.

Is the 1.5x magnification enough for hunting or long-range shooting?

The 1.5x ACOG is optimized for close-to-intermediate distances where speed and situational awareness matter more than high magnification. It excels on home defense carbines, patrol rifles, and hunting in brush or timber where targets appear at 25–100 yards. For precision long-range hunting or benchrest work, higher magnification optics are a better choice.
