The Trijicon ACOG 1.5x16S Rifle Scope RTR 9mm PCC Dual-Illuminated Red Reticle (SKU TA44-C-400389) is the smallest ACOG Trijicon build: 1.5x magnification, a 16 mm objective and a red Rapid Target Reticle with bullet drop marks cut for a 9mm pistol-calibre carbine, lit by fibre optics in daylight and a tritium lamp after dark with no battery of any kind.
How It Compares
A 9mm carbine drops far faster than a rifle cartridge past 50 yards, and this reticle is marked for that curve rather than a .223 one, so the holds are usable instead of decorative. The same optic cut for a .223 carbine is the ACOG 1.5x16S RTR .223, while the red ring with 2 MOA centre dot and the green ring with 2 MOA centre dot drop the bullet drop marks for a plain ring and dot.

Ideal For
- Pistol-calibre carbines in 9mm where the holds need to match the trajectory
- Close-quarters work where speed matters more than magnification
- Builds that need the optic off and back on again without losing zero, using the Q-LOC mount

Frequently Asked Questions
Does it need batteries?
No — the reticle is lit by fibre optics in daylight and tritium in the dark. There is nothing to switch on and nothing to run flat.
What calibre is the reticle calibrated for?
9mm pistol-calibre carbine. The drop marks below the ring are cut for that trajectory, not for a rifle cartridge.
Does it come with a mount?
Yes — a Trijicon Q-LOC Technology quick-release Picatinny mount, which is removable rather than integrated.
Can I shoot with both eyes open?
Yes — the ACOG is designed around the Bindon Aiming Concept for both-eyes-open shooting at speed.
What is an RTR reticle?
Rapid Target Reticle: a large illuminated ring for fast both-eyes-open aiming, with a centre aiming point and bullet drop marks beneath it.
What warranty does it carry?
Trijicon's Limited Lifetime Warranty. The tritium lamp carries its own multi-year term from date of manufacture.
Is this a genuine Trijicon product?
Yes — factory-new, genuine Trijicon, covered by Trijicon's Limited Lifetime Warranty.
