I found this product the coolest with the most potential at SHOT....The Leupold CQT-SS 1-8X scope.
The entire rear housing is the turret that turns to change magnification from 1x all the way to 8x
some more refinement still required, and being a second focal plane, the illumination actually grow witht he magnification and in 8x setting the dot covers center of the reticle about 1/4 of the glass. would be nice to have a front focal plane scope.
Plus if you have to be absolutely still when viewing the optic, if you turn your head slightly, the red dot will disappear. this is an issue that the Engineer at Leupold is working on.
Illumination can be turn off by setting between each level of the illumination setting, much like the ShortDot.
The locking turret is released by pinching the split ring so you can turn the dial.
Rear flip up BUIS on the Barrett M82
Barrett 6.8 carbine. Barrett remain one of a few supporter of the ARMS product and from what I hear, the ARMS SIR are a sturdy unit with favorable result from Barrett 6.8 carbine military end users.
