THE DEFENDER-XL™ MICRO RED DOT IS NOW AVAILABLE IN 2 MOA FOR A FINER POINT OF AIM.

THE DEFENDER-XL™ MICRO RED DOT IS NOW AVAILABLE IN 2 MOA FOR A FINER POINT OF AIM.

The Defender-XL™ Micro Red Dot Line Grows by Getting Smaller.

BARNEVELD, Wis. – Competitive shooters and range enthusiasts already love the Defender-XL™ Micro Red Dot in 8 MOA and 5 MOA for its massive window and crystal-clear glass. Now, they can get the same Defender-XL™ on their race guns with a finer, 2 MOA dot for even more precision.

Here’s what else you can expect from the Defender-XL™ Micro Red Dot 2 MOA:

  • LARGE VIEWING WINDOW For fast target acquisition and large field of view.
  • ASPHERICAL LENS For distortion-free sight picture and truer colors.
  • SHOCKSHIELD™ POLYMER INSERT To protect against hard, daily abuse.
  • MOTION ACTIVATION WITH 10 MINUTE AUTO-SHUTOFF Automatically activates with motion while 10-minute auto-shutoff saves battery life.
  • DELTAPOINT® PRO FOOTPRINT

MAP: $399.99 | MSRP: $599.99

Why 2 MOA? Why Smaller Dots Make a Big Difference.

While the large window on the Defender-XL™ Micro Red Dot appeals to most competitive shooters—allowing them greater peripheral vision and faster target transitions—many shooters prefer a smaller dot.

Smaller dots cover less of your target, allowing for more precision. This is especially true at longer ranges, where larger dots obscure more of your target. If you shoot competitions that include longer ranges, a smaller dot can make a big difference.
