It is still positioned low, like on CompM5S, but has been moved to the other <strong>(left) side<\/strong>. An <strong>AAA-battery compartment<\/strong> takes up quite some space, which is why it is important to place it in a position where it is least in the way. Even though this compartment is bulky, we are great fans of the AAA-battery\u2019s <strong>5-year (50.000 hours)<\/strong> battery life (at illumination intensity level 7).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6720\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6720\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6720\" src=\"http:\/\/optics-info.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Aimpoint-CompM5B-7.jpg\" alt=\"Aimpoint CompM5B\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aimpoint CompM5B<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The most notable upgrade, and the main feature of the M5B model, are the <strong>turrets<\/strong>. \u2018B\u2019 in the device\u2019s name stands for <strong>ballistic<\/strong>. When you purchase this device, you get <strong>caliber-specific turrets<\/strong> to facilitate windage and elevation adjustments. The turrets are<strong> interchangeable<\/strong>, meaning that this red dot sight is perfect if you are planning on using it on rifles of different calibers. If you switch between rifles, simply replace the turret with the one suitable for the new calibre. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aimpoint.com\/\">Aimpoint<\/a> is going to be making these turrets for the most popular, common calibers \u2013 some of them (5\u20136) will be included in the box. If you have a calibre that is not as popular, the turret can be<strong> tailor-made<\/strong> for its bullet drop. This all-new feature will be especially handy if you are planning on combining the red dot with an Aimpoint 3XMag-1 or 6xMag-1 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optics-trade.eu\/en\/dot-sights\/magnifiers\/shopby\/manufacturer-aimpoint.html\">magnifier<\/a> (or any other magnifier). The turrets on M5B can be adjusted with fingers, which is something we haven\u2019t seen in Aimpoint devices before.<\/p>\n<p>[adrotate banner=&#8221;3&#8243;]<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6718\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6718\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6718\" src=\"http:\/\/optics-info.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Aimpoint-CompM5B-5.jpg\" alt=\"Aimpoint CompM5B\" width=\"750\" height=\"1000\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6718\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aimpoint CompM5B<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6719\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6719\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6719\" src=\"http:\/\/optics-info.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Aimpoint-CompM5B-6.jpg\" alt=\"Aimpoint CompM5B\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6719\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aimpoint CompM5B<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>General properties<\/h2>\n<p>The CompM5B is one of the most <strong>rugged<\/strong>,<strong> robust<\/strong> red dot sights currently on the market.

The <strong>turrets are shrouded<\/strong> for extra ruggedness, and the front lens is well-protected from impact. The well-defined <strong>2 MOA dot<\/strong> allows accurate shooting with minimal obstruction of the target.
