Helpful Suggestion for M16a4

gatormarinediaz · Post by **gatormarinediaz** » 2007-07-23 19:46

If you are going to put in the M-16A4 for the USMC in the next version, make sure you use the correct ACOG for it. ACOG's have all kinds of different optics and options.

[editted, forgot the link]

This is the official website for the USMC's standard ACOG that is currently issued with all M-16A4 service rifles.

Note that the range indicator lines are calibrated exactly for the current 5.56 round in use being fired through a 20" (full size M-16) barrel. Also, each rang indicator line is the average width of a man from shoulder to shoulder at that distance to allow quick target range estimation.

This ACOG also uses the Bindon Aiming Concept which allows it to be used with eyes open for cqb ranges and one eye closed to accurately fire out to 800m.

You probably already know most of this stuff, I just wanted to make sure you had this information just in case, since I really haven't seen a game yet that has the correct USMC ACOG.

I'm sure they'll get it right.

It's modeled and yes, it's using a Trijicon ACOG. Cheers for the optic reference

I am putting this in my favorites so I can find it next time somebody cries about us being mean to newcomers.
This is on point and well written.
Even El Vikingo couldn't find anything but a missing link.

Thank you.

i wonder how long it lasts till we get the first 0.7 pics to see, since we allready know such a lot things to come

-M16A4 (ACOG, M203, ironsight)
-G3A4GL
-perhaps a G3SG1
-L85A2GL (not that spectacular)

At the moment half the team is on vacation and the other half is relaxing after getting v0.6 out the door.

I corrected it for you.

I was really tempted on the release day of 0.6 to put up a new post asking when 0.7 was going to be released. I don't think it would have been to funny though except to me.
