It’s a motion-activated red dot, so you don’t have to remember to turn it off when your gun goes back in its case — it turns off automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity — and when you pick the gun up again, it will already be on and ready. Not only is this convenient, but it also saves battery life. The unit is powered by one CR2032 battery.  

You can adjust brightness levels with simple button controls. As for the housing, the Fast-Rack texturing on the face of the sight makes it easy to gain purchase on a piece of gear or environment to rack the pistol one-handed if necessary, and it’s made to fit a Deltapoint Pro footprint.  

Grab one of these red dots as a gift now for the shooter in your life, or for yourself!!
