But thanks for you .02 and time.

BTW - How effective are these on M9s and 1911? Are they worth the cost to beneft?
I would not put them on issued M9s.

They are, as noted, a good set-up for the ACOGs if you are going to be in and out of vehicles and structures a lot. I usually just use the ACOG, but it is nice to have if you think you might have to shoot close and fast in low-light.
