This record answers a narrow question: which optic configuration does the indexed evidence describe? Exact retail-SKU identity remains open until primary-source documentation closes it.

Evidence review flags
Athlon currently maps this configuration to MPN 214105 and the AHMR2 reticle, but the indexed evaluation does not explicitly bridge the tested samples to that retail product code. The mapping remains a lead until the tested-unit identity chain is documented.

A scope match can still remain an evidence lead when its authority or identity chain is incomplete.

An evaluation documents the tested sample and protocol. It is not automatically a population-level reliability claim.

A clear model-label photo, packaging label, dated manual, or manufacturer response can close an identity field. Personal reports are useful leads, but they remain separate from verified identity facts.
