MKEK select-fire 7.62x51mm NATO MPT76s currently being issued to soldiers in the Turkish Army will soon be coming with magnified daylight optics in the form of the Turkish company 3E EOS and its variable magnification daylight optic, the AVCI (1X-4X). The optic is similar to ELCAN Specter DR scopes in that the magnification is achieved via a simple switch on the optic itself from a 1X setting to a 4X setting. It is powered by a CR2032 battery, and has various settings of illumination. As of now we don’t know what exact reticle is present in the optic, whether that is a single dot, or even a ballistic compensator. Automatic power off is after 5 hours of operation.

The Turkish Twitter Military Analyst SavunmaSanayiST posted about the recent delivery of optical sights insted of Picatinny mounted carrying handles.

When the MPT76 was initially adopted and then actually delivered to the Turkish Army, the AVCI scope was present in the public photographs of the rifle, but the overwhelming majority of Turkish soldiers received rifles with only iron sights as an aiming device. Some soldiers did receive the AVCI scope but this was very small in number and the remainder have the carrying handle mounted on this rifles.

Of course, special forces in Turkey have different options of optics for their service rifles–
