Brand and Model:
To start things off, this is one of the 5 Acogs G&P makes. 3 of them are 4×32 and 2 are 4×35. 4×35 Acog scopes are a slightly larger and longer version of the 4×32. To me, it doesn’t look as nice, but to others, it may be beautiful. The 2 variations of the 4×35 have one thing different on each. One has a dummy Doc red sot sight and the other has no sight. Both have none functional optical fiber on top which on the real steel version is used for illuminating part of the reticle. For the 4×32 version, one has iron sights, one has a dummy Doc sight and one has just the fake optical fiber. I chose the fake optical fiber because the Doc sight is non functional and the optical fiber looked better then the plain iron sights.
Specs:
As stated before, this particular Acog is 4×32 mean 4 times zoom. It weighs in at about half a pound. can be mounted to either a standard accessory rail or directly screwed onto a carry handle (the rail mounting base comes off).
Cost:
This is NOT a cheap replica. after going through airsoftadvantage.com and including this and some bb’s in a WGC (wgcshop.com) order, this scope ran me about $190.
Intro:
When I first got through the Airsoft Advantage packaging and took out the 6 bags of bb’s, I came across this lone G&P box. It had a standard silver, black and red G&P logo. It also had down in the corner, a small sticker that read “TA31(A) 4×32 Scope. Item NO: GP187″. This sticker is to only help stores and warehouses decipher what’s in the box without opening it up.

When I first picked up the box, I was surprised to see the box felt very flimsy. G&P obviously expected it to be packaged with some protecting material (bubble wrap, foam or tissue paper). After opening the box, I was again surprised to see that the Acog was loose in the box with nothing more then a zip lock style plastic bag. Everything inside was all right despite the poor packaging and the slightly damaged box.

After taking out the scope, I realized it had a lot more heft then I expected. The WHOLE scope is metal, everything down to the elevation and windage adjuster caps. The mount is metal, the caps and adjustment screws are metal and the casing is metal, just what I expected out of G&P. After weighing the scope, it comes in at around 11.5 ounces. I was surprised to find out it has a smooth matte black finished instead of matte black rubbery finish. Nonetheless, I love the finish of my scope and it matches my M16’s body very well.



Features:
The only features this simple scope has, are the windage and elevation adjustments and the choice between mounting on a rail or mounting on a carry handle.

Zeroing:
With the way my m16 is set up, and the type of games I play and where I play, I have decided to zero in the scope for about 150 feet. My gun can reach out to almost 220 feet and I engage as close at 80-60 feet sometimes. So I felt that 150 feet was a good compromise to get the most out of this scope. In a long, windless area, stretching almost 160 feet, I was able to zero in my scope with less then 50 rounds and in about 5 minutes. I may have been lucky, but the scope came pretty close to where my m16 was shooting. I just had to do some elevation and windage.

This image was NOT meant to be “aiming” at the playground.
Conclusion:
All in all, I am still trying to decide if this scope was worth the $190 premium. I won’t really make a decision until I get a chance to field the scope. At which point, I will post an update to see how things went along with a few closing remarks.
As far as I can tell, this scope was worth the money. The reticle is unbelievably clear. The scope itself is WELL replicated. The finish seems very durable and seems like it will last a long time.
