Trijicon VCOG 1-8x28 Red MRAD Crosshair FDE – Premium First Focal Plane LPVO

The Trijicon VCOG 1-8x28 Red MRAD Crosshair FDE (2400021) is a battle-proven, first focal plane variable optic engineered for tactical operators, precision shooters, and serious competitors. This advanced Variable Combat Optical Gunsight features a versatile 1-8x magnification range paired with a crisp red illuminated MRAD Crosshair reticle, delivering exceptional speed at close range and precise holdovers at extended distances. Finished in durable Flat Dark Earth (FDE), this model combines rugged military-grade construction with modern tactical aesthetics.

Built to the same exacting standards as Trijicon’s combat-proven optics, the VCOG 1-8x28 is designed to maintain zero and optical clarity under the harshest conditions. Because the MRAD Crosshair reticle is located in the first focal plane, the subtensions remain accurate at every magnification setting. This makes ranging targets and applying holdovers consistent and reliable whether you’re at 1x or 8x. Powered by a single AA battery, the bright red LED illumination provides a highly visible reticle in all lighting conditions, from bright sunlight to low-light environments.

Why Choose the Trijicon VCOG 1-8x28 Red MRAD Crosshair FDE?

The Trijicon VCOG 1-8x28 Red MRAD Crosshair stands out as one of the most rugged and precise low-power variable optics available.

Whether you’re running drills, competing in 3-Gun or precision rifle matches, or using it for duty purposes, the VCOG delivers unmatched reliability and optical performance. Its robust construction ensures it will maintain zero even after heavy recoil and exposure to extreme field conditions.

The Trijicon VCOG 1-8x28 Red MRAD Crosshair FDE is an outstanding choice for shooters who prefer MRAD-based reticles.
