Tigershark_BAS 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Looking for some confirmation here from real world operators. I have used an aimpoint on an M4 before and from memory, the point of the aimpoint vs. a scope such as the ACOG is that you are able to train your weapon on target with both eyes open. This is how remember firing the weapon. Because both eyes are open, the aimpoint mount itself becomes translucent or semi-transparent. A minor gripe with the aimpoint implementation in ArmA is that it blocks much of the field of view in the game. Can others with experience with aimpoint/elcan mounts on rifles confirm my experience above? Tiger out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marines 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Correct to an extent. There are different aimpoint sights with different configs. But the one your talking about is the Aimpoint M, which is the one currently in use, and enables the operator to keep both eyes open. It's my sight of choice in Iraq.

Tigershark_BAS 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Thanks for the reply. Been a while since I used one and wondering if I wasn't going crazy when I saw the aimpoint M in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BVE 0 Posted December 12, 2006 All aimpoint can be used with both eyes open. In the military i never used 1, always used the elcan sight on my c7a1 I use a aimpoint from 'Walther' on my m4 paintball gun (rebuilded tippmann a-5) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
