Trijicon ACOG 1.5X16S | 1.5x 16mm | RTR .223

The Trijicon ACOG 1.5x16S is a compact, fixed-magnification riflescope designed for fast target acquisition and reliable performance in varied lighting conditions. It uses dual, battery-free illumination—fiber optics for daylight adjustment and tritium for low-light glow—to keep the reticle visible without external power. The sight is built in a forged 7075-T6 aluminum housing intended for high durability and is offered with Trijicon’s Q-LOC quick-mount technology for tool-less mounting and repeatable return-to-zero.
