Testing the new BROWE (BCO) 4X32 thought I would show and tell a Little as I go here.
In my Opinion BROWE is the Nemesis to the ACOG, Improved Design maybe ? Built from CP-2(MGT) Military Grade Titanium, stronger material needed or not.? weight is 17oz with battery. mounting the BROWE to the Rail ARMS-17 Mount with the new ADJUSTABLE lever system, its Functional and a LARGE improvement, LARUE has the same footprint Replacement mount, spacers used with the ARMS17 M68 30mm RING for AIMPOINT will work with the BROWE, You can space it up or use the Cantelever Spacer to jump it back for closer eye relief which is 1.5" Not a Improvement over the ACOG.
Glass reminds me of the ACOG QUALITY of GLASS and Coatings. Scope adjustment use Nickel wide slots this is not a Improvement over Acog they should have used Turrets like the latest ACOGS do! Adjustment of the BROWE was precise and exact .5MOA at 100m and positive audible CLICK, no Problems zeroing. BDC on mine is 5.56 there is also a 7.62 Model, the 5.56 reticule is ACOG like chevron using Tip at ZERO point at 100m, BDC is TA31 Clone for 62Gr NATO from M4 Carbine.
Illumination is Electronic Auto and manual Control, ten day and three night Vision settings using one PUSH button on the left side. Power by 123 Battery and 2000 hours avg. min 720hrs on MAX. run time, I have No problem with the battery power over Fiber optics or Tritium of the ACOG.The BROWE will work without a battery the reticule is like any other. Browe Illumination is easy to use and has BAC brightness SUN up, no PROBLEM! The target Light Sensor in the optical Light path measures light automatically and adjust the Illumination to the Lighting conditions as needed, ACOG like, But you cant Turn the BROWE OFF if you do not want Illumination. it has #SIC Button# one press is auto mode and second press is manual mode.there is a sealed port cover that allows access to programmable VIA interface with updates or reprogramming or in the access port you have the option to use manual tap switch to control the Functions also. After two Hours of no movement the BROWE goes to sleep and powers up when Vibrations #movement# are detected and the Clock restarts. The front of the BROWE is threaded and allows options for Dust Covers Kill Flash LASER FILTERS, the rear is machined with a grove to allow more options to mount stuff. There are two THREAD BOSS on the top with screws that allow mounting option for MRD.
I like it so far, But the Night is Young! Will keep you all posted!
FYI The DBAL-D2 is still kicking and ZERO issue with it to date.
Rain Fog and Mud, this is My world !
468 yards BDC was close enough to tag this plate!
600 yards useing the 600m meter BDC I held center of plate holding wind off the left side.
