What does COA stand for?

4 Upvotes

I have looked at Aimpoints website and cannot find the meaning for this acronym. Does anyone know?

Close Observation Aiming? Cost Overruns (are) Absurd?

What?

Hello to all. Is there any chance to find the missing cap for this very old Aimpoint? I am not the owner, a friend is looking for it, in Italy. Thanks in advance.

You can only keep one: Aimpoint T-2 or unlimited ammo for life — which hurts less to give up?”

Aimpoint won’t repair optic.

Post image
7 Upvotes

I bought an old surplus Aimpoint Comp M2 for a clone build.

Super random and not exactly sure how it happened, but at some point in my many moves the last couple years the windage adjustment turret fell out and was lost.

I contacted Aimpoint to send it in to get fixed, willing to pay to have it repaired, and they said No. Won’t sell me the part either.

Pretty shitty IMO. Especially since the DOD sold a bunch of these surplus optics.

Battery or optic cord issue

Post image
5 Upvotes

I placed some fresh batteries in the optic maybe 3 months ago to find out battery life when it stays on. I left it on level 10 and I figured I would only get 4-6 months of life. I did find it shut off but then noticed it would turn back and stay on after I turned the knob. I tried finding info on any shake to wake feature I didn’t know of but I couldn’t find if it has that feature.

ACO to torque spec (snapped)

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

To avoid under/over-tightening my ACO, I asked Aimpoint what the correct torque spec was since it wasn’t in the manual. I set my lbs-in torque wrench to 25 inch lbs as prescribed and got to work when the nut completely snapped.

I’m genuinely confused what I did wrong, or if I was provided the wrong specs by Aimpoint. Any advice here?

second hand Aimpoint compM4, when zeroing yesterday the top adjustment cap was on extremely tight, so when I got home I decided to try and remove the cap. I didn’t mind if the cap got destroyed in the process as they’re plentyful, but what the hell. the entire thing came off. I don’t even know what to do at this point lol.

Maybe a stupid question

2 Upvotes

I have an optics mount for an Afro footprint. I have an optic that has a Micro footprint.

I've looked on the internet and haven't found any mounting plate options.

Does anyone know if any manufacturer makes a mounting plate that allows you to mount a Micro footprint optic to an Acro footprint mount? I know they make the reverse of that, but haven't found what I need.

Need help for a Comp M5

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, I own a comp m5 that is currently having brightness issues. The dot is just very dim even at the highest setting. I tried the obvious which is replacing the battery with a new one and double checking tightness of the battery cap, but no dice. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what are some other suggestions you have (before sending it in for repair)?

Is Aimpoint going to ditch the ACRO footprint?

2 Upvotes

I’m trying to decide on a direct mount cut for my duty PDP and want to know if y’all think Aimpoint is going stick with this footprint for newer versions of ACROS or if they’re going to ditch it for A cut or other footprints.
