    They are great scopes. Mine came in a foam lined hard plastic case and has green light up cross hairs. Also is still perfect after 2 years never loses it's zero and am still on original batteries and mine has seen quite a bit of use!

    I got this one recently and it's excellent. Be careful to check that an ACOG you're looking at buying actually does have magnification going on - some are built with an ACOG's housing but only have a red dot and no magnification, which is obviously daft.
