Trijicon, Compact ACOG 1.5x16S, 1.5x Magnification, 16mm Objective, Dual Illuminated, Red 115/147 Grain 9mm PCC RTR Reticle, Black, Includes Q-LOC Mount - SKU: TA44-C-400409 - UPC: 719307624689
Product Description
The Trijicon Compact ACOG 1.5x16S (TA44-C-400409) is a ultra-lightweight, duty-grade optical system optimized specifically for pistol caliber carbines (PCC) and submachine gun platforms chambered in 9mm Luger. Offering a wide field of view and generous, forgiving eye relief, this 1.5x fixed magnification optic bridges the gap between 1x red dot sights and higher-magnification scopes, delivering ultra-fast close-quarters acquisition along with enhanced target identification downrange.
Equipped with Trijicon’s signature battery-free Dual Illumination system, the TA44 uses fiber optics to collect ambient light during daytime operations and tritium to illuminate the reticle in complete darkness. The specialized Red 115/147 Grain 9mm PCC RTR (Ring & Torso Reticle) is ballistically calibrated for standard 115gr to 147gr 9mm ammunition, providing rapid outer ring centering for speed and clear drop holdover points for mid-range precision.
Housed in a forged 7075-T6 aircraft-aluminum housing with a matte black hardcoat anodized finish, the TA44-C-400409 comes factory-equipped with Trijicon's quick-detach Q-LOC Picatinny mount. The spring-loaded Q-LOC clamping mechanism ensures reliable return-to-zero performance, a minimal rail footprint, and effortless toolless installation.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Mounts directly to MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny receiver rails using the included Q-LOC QD mount base.
- Verify host firearm is completely clear, magazine removed, and chamber visually and physically confirmed empty.
- Depress the spring-loaded quick-detach lever on the Q-LOC mount base and position the optic onto the upper receiver Picatinny rail.
- Push the optic body forward toward the muzzle while releasing and securing the Q-LOC clamping lever to seat the recoil lug into the rail cross-slot.
- Look through the ocular lens with both eyes open to verify comfortable eye relief (approx. 2.4 inches) and natural reticle alignment.
- Adjust windage and elevation turrets using external toolless adjusters or a small coin to establish zero for your specific 9mm cartridge load.
Key Features
- Battery-Free Dual Illumination: Fiber optic light collector automatically regulates reticle brightness in daylight; tritium powers the reticle in low light and complete darkness.
- Red 9mm PCC RTR Reticle: Calibrated specifically for 115gr and 147gr 9x19mm ballistics, featuring an intuitive speed ring and distance holdovers.
- Trijicon Q-LOC Quick-Detach Mount: Heavy-duty spring-loaded QD clamp provides rock-solid rail lockup and repeatable return-to-zero capability.
- Forged 7075-T6 Aluminum Housing: Military-grade forged aluminum housing absorbs severe impact, drops, and violent bolt cycling recoil.
- Both-Eyes-Open Speed: 1.5x magnification combined with generous eye relief allows seamless Bindon Aiming Concept (BAC) shooting.
- Waterproof & Nitrogen-Purged: Submersible construction prevents internal fogging and optical clouding under extreme atmospheric conditions.
