That's short for Advanced Compact Reflex Optic, and the Swedish born sight looks like it addresses at least one of the shortcomings of competing MRDS products; open tops. Aimpoint engineered the ACRO from the ground up as a pistol sight and says the fully enclosed sight is more durable than open systems, citing a 20,000 round durability test using a .40 caliber pistol. The ACRO will be available first in tactical form featuring a 3.5 MOA dot with 12 brightness settings, the first 4 of which are night vision compatible. But, Aimpoint points out the ACRO is not a single sight but a series, so we assume that means we'll see a family of ACROs with differing dot sizes, with and without night-vision compatibility settings to suit different markets and price points. Aimpoint says the device is submersible to 25 meters and runs for a year, continuously, on its single CR1225 watch battery that can be changed without removing the optic from the host. That CR1225 isn't a familiar battery, but it seems like it's readily available through online retailers. Unfortunately, we have no word on pricing or the date they will be available for purchase, yet.
