I have yet to see the Acro in real life use. Everyone here just uses the RMR if they have optics at all. How does it perform? I just thought it looked too bulky and for the purposes of law enforcement you don't really need that fat enclosed emitter housing.
 
I'm sorry, but whenever I see a micro red-dot on one of those pedestal mount thingies, I'm reminded of this wojak:

I’ve had environmental fouling with open emitter red dots enough at matches that I prefer closed ones. Just standing around with a breeze blowing in sandy areas can fill them with moon dust.

My ACRO P1 did have a moisture leak that required returning it for repair.

I prefer the Steiner MPS over the ACRO mounted to a pistol. Bigger window.
 
The large shrouds/enclosures absolutely suck when using head mounted night vision. eotech's thin shroud practically disappears while that one would cause a lot of blur.
Wouldn't that have more to do with the glass quality than the size of the enclosure?

The FOV on a PVS-14 is pretty narrow which makes thick walled optics take up a lot of your vision. It can also create a blur around the optic where the enclosure is since the NVG is a fixed focus. You end up seeing a black, blurry ring around the glass which can mess with your target acquisition. Maybe the quad tube NVGs don't have this issue.

I am not an optical engineer and while glass quality does play a part the larger the lens the more light can come through (at least that is how I think it works)
Glare is amplified when using NVGs so nice glass and a shroud helping block incidental light helps a lot. You can tell the difference between a Vortex's and Trijicon's glass.

Glass quality is fairly important with NV for clarity/IR transmission.

While you're correct a bigger objective lens on a lensed optic means more light, a red dot/holo sight is not that. A 'brighter picture' in a lensed optic/camera lens/etc means more light focused on the same area, gathered by the objective lens. There's no 'focusing' if you will going on in a red dot, the light rays go straight through. Thinner sides is helpful because less light's getting blocked, which can be helped a bit by a bigger window (just because the picture/dark fuzzy spot ratio is better). The bigger windowed 1x optic is not going to "gather light" in the same way a scope or lens will, in short.

Homie really got a bunch of normie subscribers by talking about internet horror, "icebergs", conspiracies and true crime and now he's teaching them how Larry Phillip Jr.'s HK91 and AK jammed during the North Hollywood shootout.

Coincidentally I just saw his channel and have been watching his ARG analysises and they are really good.

His first videos included guntuber tier-lists and a brandon herrea cosplay
Nice to see that he's staying relatively genuine despite gaining almost 1.4 million subs in the less than 2 years since these were published.

I'm not trying to come down that hard on you, but c'mon, showing that you own a gun isn't that weird for an American to do.

You wanna know who's really shown their powerlevel? The8bitguy:

Hell. Even Vice made an article about him since they got so assmad.

I remember when that XP video came out and let's just say it was clear who were the Europeans in his audience lmao.

Oh, man. That 2nd Amendment Audit at the Subway pissed so many people off.
