I am not familiar with older Trijicons. I would like a decent back up scope for my AR's. it's only $200 what do you think?
Cheers,

Assuming that it is not a fake, if the glass is clear and the filament on top is not cracked it is a screaming deal!

It was fake. They spelled tritium with a D. And it was advertised as a non illumination model. Why would it have "tridium" in it.

So after that I knew it was fake.

Also found this.

PLEASE HELP! Is this a FAKE ACOG??? TA31RCO-A4 - AR15.Com Archive

I would buy an abused real ACOG before many other scopes. Have repainted many from sandbox and all are GTG thus far. Never have purchased one for under $750 though.
