Looks like an ACOG, but with a battery.

Intersting.

Looks like a mix of ACOG with VX-R's vibration sensor and with an ambient light sensor to boot.

Started by a former Trijicon exec.

Are you going to carry it, Chris?

Both the BROWE and ACOG are interesting, but I think that a 1x4 illuminated scope is a much more usable optic. With a 1x both eyes synced CQCB mode and a 4x distance mode, the scope would have to be my choice.

I have used a few ACOGs and HOLOgraphic sights at the range, but I have never felt the need to purchase one... What is the draw to this type of sight over a CQCB scope?

What does the vibration sensor do? Let you know someone is approaching? Gotta like the acronym for one of the buttons...That's SIC, man!

If I get the Spuhr mount for my Hensoldt on the 338, I could add the Browe on the right.  Since I shoot both left and right it would be a perfect combo...

Lots of photos but I didnt see one of the reticle.  Scope took style from both ACOG and CompM4s they will be making both Trijicon and Aimpoint dislike them.

Did I just miss it, or is a warranty period not mentioned.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.
