Coincidentally, I sighted my 509t2 ACSS offset optic today. Here’s a quick parallax test at 50yds:
center and bottom edge: POA
top edge: 2.5” high
left edge: 1” left
right edge: 1.5” right, 1.5” high
Not enough to cause significant accuracy issues at 10-20yds.

Absolutely firing when not perfectly centered. It depends on what you consider significant. For example with rifles for some the MRO parallax issue is not "significant" but to others it is. The beauty of a big red dot window is to be able to use the entire thing and not just the center - I want the gun to shoot to where the red dot is superimposed on the target period, regardless of if the dot is perfectly centered.

This topic has been covered before so back to the ACRO. From my experience it is the better option compared to the 509T due to true 1x and less possible parallax error when shooting when the dot is not perfectly centered.
Thank you for your test with your sample. Perhaps parallax is the wrong word and how my eyes interpret the edge distortion causes more issues with the 509T compared to the ACRO. Either way it's an easy test and on the agenda next time I get to the range to compare the two for edge to edge distortion. I currently have 2 P2s and 2 509T X2s to try.
I came up with a reason why *I* thought the Acro was easier to track in recoil than the 509T X2. BUT I had so few range sessions with the Holosun before I found an Acro P2 that I wasn't really sure. And maybe I was trying to tell myself the Acro was a tiny bit better than the 509T X2 to justify the cost.
Here it is: I think the taller Acro window means I see the dot sooner in recoil.
But real talk, I liked both optics. Sold the Holosun and kept the Acro P2 because Ameri...errr Sweden.
I have been sitting on a brand new Acro P1, hoping to sell and use the money for another P2 to live on either a Glock or a PCC.
I would respectfully suggest that if you are shooting sub .20 splits, that you are shooting predictively and pressing the trigger before you see the dot coming down onto the target area. With target focus, I am looking at the target, and have no idea what the clarity of the window looks like.
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
Any word on another batch of these coming in? Seems like I've had restock notifications set for some time without any developments. Thanks

I was literally the first one through the door on the first day of the NRA show last month. I went directly to the Aimpoint booth and asked if they brought any ACRO P2's with them to the show, they said yes, I said I will take two. They through in a Surefire Stiletto flashlight ($150.) and a bag of Aimpoint coffee for my purchase. IMHO, there are currently some pretty good pistol RDS's out there, but overall if my life would be on the line, I would choose the ACRO P2.
