Frequently Asked Questions

What is needed to mount the Aimpoint ACRO P-2 on a Glock MOS pistol?

You will need the Aimpoint ACRO P-2 optic, the specific Aimpoint adapter plate for Glock MOS systems (Item #200520), Loctite 243 threadlocker, and 91% isopropyl alcohol for cleaning the slide's mounting surface.

Why is cleaning the Glock MOS slide important before mounting an optic?

Cleaning the optic mounting surface with 91% isopropyl alcohol removes oils and debris, ensuring optimal adhesion for the adapter plate and optic, which is critical for a secure and reliable mount that won't shift under recoil.

What is the purpose of using Loctite and witness marks during optic installation?

Loctite threadlocker prevents mounting screws from loosening due to firearm recoil and vibration. Witness marks are applied over the screw heads and mounting surface to provide a visual indicator, allowing for quick checks to ensure the screws remain tight.

What is the reticle size of the Aimpoint ACRO P-2?

The Aimpoint ACRO P-2 features a 3.5 MOA (Minute of Angle) red dot reticle. This size offers a good balance between visibility for quick target acquisition and precision at moderate distances.
