Re: acog eye relief
Which one? Where do you position your head? I've always put my nose right up to the charging handle and my TA31 sits fairly close to the front end of the rail. ACOG eye relief is fairly short so your head may be too far back. You may have to change the way you crawl up on the stock.

Re: acog eye relief
Personally I would run your ACOG towards the front or middle-front of the rail. It should offer a decent amount of eye relief. You are probably too close to the rear of the scope to get good eye relief if it is at the rear of the rail.
I could be wrong if you are having a different problem, but that is where mine is mounted and works great.
Good Luck

Re: acog eye relief
If its a 4x it probably needs to be all the way back. Even with it as far back as it will go, your nose will likely be on the charging handle to get proper eye relief.

Re: acog eye relief
it is a ta01 4x. when i mount a scope i try to pull the gun up narurally and have a full sight picture. on my acog i pull the gun up and have to move my head closer to the scope.

Re: acog eye relief
I have the ta01nsn on my issue m4, and a ta31f on my rifle at home, and both are about the same. Do you have a collapsible stock? I have to put my stock on the second stop to get close enough. If I'm prone I can extend it further.

Re: acog eye relief
The TA01 and TA31 ACOGs don't have much in the way of eye relief.
FWIW, I went with the TA11 and am much happier. Just my $0.02 worth.

Re: acog eye relief
I couldnt stand how I had to molest the oculer with my eyeball on the TA01 so I sold it. I have a TA33 now. IIRC eye relief is longest on the 11 followed by the 33. In other words 3.5X is longest, 3X next, 4X is shortest.

Re: acog eye relief
The 4X ACOG's have a 1.9" eye relief. I also have to put my nose up to the charging handle to get a proper sight picture. The TaA 33 3X scope has about 2X the eye relief. It took me a while to get used to the short eye relief and proper head placement but it can be done done.

Re: acog eye relief
Santo I think you have it backwards. 4x's have 1.5. 3X's have 1.9, 3.5X's have 2.4..... so like I said 3.5X is longest, 3X next, 4X is shortest.

Re: acog eye relief
I have the TA31-F 4X and I like the short eye relief. I keep the stock almost completely collapesed just like some folks above were saying so everything is nice and compact. ACOGs are great sights.

Re: acog eye relief
I stand corrected your right. Getting old. You'd think I'd keep it straight since I've previously posted all my 4 of my 4X ACOG's have 1.5" eye relief.
