critism for the CCO

I'll tell you from my experience as a soldier that the CCO is not that good, its just the choice the army has made. Calling it a favorite is BS. I prefer the Iron Sight. One problem is the difficulty to zero the red laser, and another the short lasting battery power of the CCO. Sixshooter500

why was this moved to M68 CCO?

why was this moved to M68 CCO? I feel that the old title (Aimpoint CompM2) appropriately followed the <manufacturer> <manufacturer's product name> format used so frequently on wikipedia, whereas this new one sports a unique designation used only by the US Army, and also fails to explain what CCO stands for (collimated combat optic, I'm guessing). if no explanation is given, I'm going to move this back to the old title.

It stands for 'Close Combat Optic'. Ve3 17:33, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

ECOS-N

Is ECOS-N a different model in any form or simply another designation for the SOPMOD Block II? --Squalla 18:02, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

I don't know if there are any real differences, but the M68 CCO and ECOS-N are assigned different NSN.

• M68 CCO: 1240-01-411-1265
• ECOS-N: 1240-01-495-1385 --D.E. Watters 00:08, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, Watters. (I forgot to sign the previous post, by the way.) --Squalla 18:02, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

Parallax-Free Minimum Distance

I was wondering where the source of the numbers is for the following statement in the article: "The M68 is parallax-free outside of 50m, meaning that while the red dot moves around the inside of sight based on eye position, it always represents the point of aim. Inside of 50m the red dot has to be kept in the center of the reticle." The reason I am curious is because I would like to see if I can find this information for Aimpoint CompM4 article I am writing. I saw references to 25m as the minimum distance elsewhere on the internet so I really want to clear this up. Igor at work 19:27, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

Some users?

Never good WP:WEASEL wise when a paragraph starts that way. Needs a rewrite and references. Fountains of Bryn Mawr (talk) 17:44, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
