ATA M5 Adjustable Turret Cap, Aimpoint Comp M5
A pair of 17-4 stainless turret caps that let you adjust windage and elevation on an Aimpoint Comp M5 without taking the caps off.
The Problem With Factory Caps
To adjust the sight you unscrew the cap, flip it, mate the protrusions with the indentations on the adjustment, and rotate. Then you fire, check, and do it again. Zeroing is rarely one step.
The caps are small and easy to lose, and there is nowhere useful on the sight to tether them.
How the ATA Works
Each cap holds a rotating 17-4 stainless disc with an externally accessible top slot. The disc has two protrusions that mate with the indentations on the sight's adjustment dial.
To adjust, rotate the disc with the rim of a cartridge or a coin. The caps stay on the sight. FCD tested .223, .308, .45 ACP, and 9mm rims.
The caps carry 12 serrations to assist installation.
Water Resistance
An internal O-ring keeps moisture out. In immersion testing the ATA M5 matched the single piece factory cap down to 77 feet.
Worth knowing: the adjustments are water resistant even with no caps at all, but Aimpoint only warranties the sight to its rated depth with caps installed.
Before You Order
This version fits the Comp M5 only. The adjustment caps on the T1, H1, and T2 are a different design. For those sights, see the standard ATA.
When installing, do not remove the O-rings already present on the sight.
