[5]In 1995, United States Special Operations Command selected the 4×32 TA01 as the official scope for the M4 carbine and purchased 12,000 units from Trijicon. [6]
Trijicon specializes in self-luminous optics and night sights, mainly using the low-energy tritium illumination, light-gathering fiber optics and battery-powered LED. [1] [2] [3] Additionally, Trijicon is a contractor for the United States military and supplies the Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight (ACOG) and RX01 reflex sights.
A Trijicon 3.5x35 ACOG prism sight with a Trijicon RMR reflex sight mounted on the top..

Either type of reticle can be illuminated for use in low-light or daytime conditions. With any illuminated low-light reticle, it is essential that its brightness can be adjusted.
The reticle consists of a series of chevrons, the topmost being zeroed at 400 meters, with each descending chevron indicating points of aim at 100 meter intervals beyond the main 400 meter zero. Inside the main chevron lies a dot that was implemented to be used against targets that are 500 meters from the operator; the second and third chevrons ...
