Aimpoint ACRO at Shot Show
Aimpoint’s overview:
The Aimpoint® Acro P-1 is developed for use on pistols and other weapon platforms requiring a small enclosed red dot system. It is the only sight in its size category fully tested for shock, vibration, temperature span and other environmental stress.
The Acro P-1 is the smallest enclosed system on the market.
Tested with 20,000 rounds on a .40 cal pistol slide, this small optic has proven to lead in ruggedness and reliability in its category. The Acro P-1 can be used as a backup sight for magnifying scopes, personal defense weapons, and any area where a small red dot system is applicable.
Here’s some pics of the new Aimpoint mounted, showing both cowitness and where mounted with regular sights in place.
Personally I think I prefer the RMR style sights on a pistol to this, which looks a little bulky to me. Saying that, being an Aimpoint, it’ll be good at what it’s supposed to do.

This will be a game changer.
I think Trijicon will have to raise their game to be competitive.

Re: Aimpoint ACRO at Shot Show
If it turns out to be rugged, as Aimpoint’s always are, and no failures, this will sell very well.
Personally, one of the reasons I haven’t gone the red dot on the pistol is it’s a big outlay for something that could have a life span of 20000 rounds or 1000 rounds. Hopefully this will make other manufacturers, as BigT said, decrease the failure rate in the pistol optics segment. I would rather have a bulky sight that I trust than one that has a slim profile and chance of failure in a competition or SD situation
Thanks for the extra look CraigYoutube: pdh BeepRunShoot Twitter: @pdhBeepRunShoot Instagram: pdh_BeepRunShoot

Re: Aimpoint ACRO at Shot Show
I have a feeling the tube shape will have some indexing advantages too
