Trijicon Compact Acog 3X30 Rifle Scope Green Chevron .223/62Gr. Illuminated Black W/ Mount

The Trijicon Compact ACOG 3x30 rifle scope is a professional-grade magnified optic built for shooters who demand speed, low-light performance, and unwavering reliability in the field. This 3x magnification scope with a 30mm objective lens combines close-quarters responsiveness with enough power for mid-range precision—making it at home on everything from 5.56/.223 platforms to general-purpose carbines and tactical rifles. The green chevron reticle is calibrated for .223 ammunition at 62 grains, giving you a pre-zeroed aiming point that works without batteries and holds its brightness across light conditions.

What sets the ACOG apart is Trijicon's Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC): you can engage targets with both eyes open, maintaining full situational awareness while the illuminated reticle stays sharp. That matters whether you're running drills at the range, hunting, or operating in low-light environments. The included Compact ACOG Mount features Q-LOC Technology, a one-handed, tool-free clamping system that locks onto any Mil-Spec or NATO Picatinny rail. The mount is machined from 6061-T6 aluminum, rated for Mil-Spec drop tests, and finished in matte black—light, tough, and built to return to zero shot after shot.

The scope and mount ship ready to install. The mount's spring-loaded design maintains constant retention and zero integrity even if you don't torque the knobs to full spec, though Trijicon rates the system between 12–16 in./lbs. spring tension and up to 44–66 in./lbs. if you want maximum lock-down. Made in the USA, the ACOG 3x30 is the choice of professionals who can't afford a miss—and it delivers for serious shooters who expect the same standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

What rifles and calibers is the Trijicon Compact ACOG 3x30 designed for?

This scope is calibrated for .223/62 grain ammunition and fits any rifle with a Mil-Spec or NATO Picatinny rail—including AR-15s, 5.56 carbines, and other modern sporting rifles. The 3x magnification and compact profile make it ideal for intermediate-distance shooting where you want speed and situational awareness.

Can I use this scope on a different caliber or rifle?

The reticle is specifically calibrated for .223 at 62 grains. While you can mount it on any Picatinny rail, the point-of-aim/point-of-impact relationship will only be correct for that ammunition. If you shoot a different caliber or load, you'll need to re-zero.

How does the Q-LOC mount work, and can I install it without tools?

The Q-LOC system uses a one-handed clamping lever that grips the Picatinny rail without requiring wrenches or Allen keys. The spring-loaded design maintains constant retention and zero stability. You can use spring tension alone (12–16 in./lbs.) for field use, or tighten it up to 44–66 in./lbs. for maximum lock-down if preferred.

What's the Bindon Aiming Concept, and why does it matter?

BAC is Trijicon's optical design that lets you aim and shoot with both eyes open. The green chevron reticle stays clear and usable to your dominant eye while your non-dominant eye maintains peripheral vision. This keeps you faster and more aware of your surroundings—critical for field shooting and tactical applications.
