Trijicon ACOG TA44 1.5x16mm Compact Rifle Scope with Dual-Illuminated Reticle & Q-LOC Mount - Matte Finish

The Trijicon ACOG TA44 1.5x16mm compact rifle scope is built for shooters who need a fast, lightweight optic that doesn't sacrifice durability or performance. This fixed-magnification scope pairs exceptional light-gathering capability with Trijicon's proven dual-illumination system—fiber optic and tritium—so your reticle stays visible in bright sun, dim conditions, or anywhere between. The 1.5x magnification and wide 7.4-degree field of view make target acquisition quick and instinctive, ideal for tactical teams, close-quarters work, and competitive shooting where speed counts. At just 5.1 ounces, it won't bog down your rifle.

Build quality is where the TA44 earns its reputation. The housing is forged from 7075-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum—the same material used in combat rifles worldwide—and finished in matte black. Windage and elevation adjustments are external and tool-free, with keeper caps tethered so you won't lose them on the move. The included Q-LOC mount uses a one-handed, tool-less clamping system that locks onto any Mil-Spec or NATO Picatinny rail. The spring-loaded design maintains zero consistently, even if you don't crank the mount bolts to maximum torque, and the mount's low profile and minimal weight keep your setup lean.

Whether you're running an M4, hunting rifle, or competition carbine, the TA44 delivers the battle-tested performance that has made the ACOG the most widely used magnified optic in professional and military use. No batteries required—fiber optics harness ambient light automatically, while tritium provides a backup that never needs charging. It's an optic built to work in the real world, not in a lab.
