New Guy here I have a  delemma  I need some input from you folks. Frist i found a used  Trijicon  acog TAO1NSA for my AR-15 E2 20" barrel  fixed carry handle Used looks nice $600. Bucks  shipped. Then I find this site and on the Demos etc  are two scopes  #1  Item# 6546  Ta01 display 100% new $599.95  Fullline red Very nice!! #2 Item # 6548 TA01 NSN yellow with back up sites ( I like that feature but maybe not needed for my range and plinking) Its $699.95  So you see $100.00  between the two!! To me  $100.00 a lot of cash Im really streaching my Budget at $600.00  So what do you think?  1 buy used for $600 bucks shipped to my door  condition? omly saw picture on line.    2> buy the $599.95 on off the demo page and pay the $12.00 shipping but have a brand new demo. Or 3 buy the  TA01 NSN  Demo  of the demo list  and pay $112.00 more  Please help before I lose my mind!!!   All advice will be welcome!       thanks   George

Im swaying that way I get a little nervious send $600 bucks yo a stranger from the internet. I guess Im going to give the Bad news. But I hate to be a Jerk but I dont and cant aford to get ripped for that much money. Do you guys think Im a rotten low life thumb sucking little prick for backing out of the deal !!! I would hate it Some one led me on then Bailed out!! because thats what I think i may do.  Is there any problems buying a used one can it be damaged or not work correctly.? It looks like I may tranish my god name over at ar-15.com but you gotta take care of #1 sorry for the rant!  Rant off    Happy New Year Every one!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Buy here on samplelist with confidence I bought a TAO1B for a .308 there and it is brand new in perfect condition. To me the big difference between the TA01 and the TA01NSN is that it comes set up for a flat top which you dont need so buy the TA01

You will not be disappointed with the Samplelist....you are playing with your money elsewhere especially in terms of ACOGs as many unscrupulous types sell Hong Kong knock-offs as the real thing (TA01 models are prevalent...haven't seen any dual illumination ones (TA11 and TA31 etc).  See the Trijicon webpage for info http://www.trijicon.com/faq.cfm#f36

 

If given a choice between the regular and NSN, I would save my money and go straight TA01...with a fixed carry handle you would find it "challenging" to use the backup sights (you can use the regular sights much easier)
