Goat,

I'd say there is justification for a limited purchase, depending on your budget and current SOR. Realize that you could order every optic currently available and somone on the Team would soon find something new that he wanted to try out. Its the nature of who we are. Keep in mind that a pistol application will also lead to additional holsters that fit the sidearm with this optic.

FWIW, I carried a JPoint above my ACOG during my last rotation. It was sufficient for what I intended, as an addition to use for CQB when ops tranistion from one environment to another. I'm not a fan of switching gear based on the specific mission, but prefer to have one set up that I can apply for all.

The Jpoint is no more accurate than training yourself to shoot off the front sight post of the ACOG, but is easier to aquire when moving from a bright environment outdoors into a building.
