The M-RAD and M-RAD Micro red dot reflex sights from Meopta USA were developed for rapid, virtually parallax-free target acquisition across multiple calibers and weapon platforms. Both are dependable, rugged sights designed to speed target acquisition and increase shooter accuracy.

The robust M-RAD reflex sight is engineered to withstand the rigors of real-world combat. Teamed with a wide range of firearms – from shotguns to rifles ­– the M-RAD greatly increases shooter accuracy and speed in military, L/E and competitive shooting scenarios. The M-RAD can be used as a stand-alone sight or be mounted to a primary riflescope for situations that require a rapid change from distant targets to eyes-wide-open engagement of close quarter threats.

The versatile M-RAD Micro reflex sight is a more compact, lighter weight version of the M-RAD and can be used on handguns, shotguns and AR rifles. This sight greatly increases shooter accuracy and speed in hunting, 3-gun competition, personal defense and L/E applications. The M-RAD Micro's miniature profile also makes it ideal for mounting to a primary riflescope for situations that require rapid change from distant to close quarter shots.

The new ZD Tactic 4-16x44 RD riflescope with illuminated Mil-Dot reticle is designed for use by Special Forces, L/E snipers and professional target shooters at distances up to 800 meters. Featuring an adjustable objective for setting zero parallax at distances from 3 meters to infinity, the ZD 4-16x44 RD is exceptionally accurate. ZD tactical target turrets features .05 Mil Rad positive click-stop adjustments for unparalleled repeatability. The elevation turret allows calibration of bullet drop to virtually any known distance and can be easily reset to zero. Featuring an RD illuminated Mil-Dot style reticle, the ZD 4-16x44 enables the shooter to determine quickly and precisely the exact distance of an intended target at almost any range.
