  2. Red dot sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_dot_sight

    A red dot sight is a common classification [1] for a non-magnifying reflector (or reflex) sight that provides an illuminated red dot to the user as a point of aim. A standard design uses a red light-emitting diode (LED) at the focus of collimating optics , which generates a dot-style illuminated reticle that stays in alignment with the firearm ...

  3. Sight magnifier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sight_magnifier

    The pictured magnifier is flipped in, and is magnifying the view through the sight. [a] A sight magnifier is an optical telescope that can be paired with a non-magnifying optical sight on a weapon to create a telescopic sight. [1] [2] They work with the parallel collimated reticle image produced by red dot sights and holographic weapon sights.

  4. Reflector sight - Wikipedia

    A view through a Tasco ProPoint red dot sight. The mid- to late 1970s saw the introduction of what are usually referred to as red dot sights, a type that gives the user a simple bright red dot as an aiming point. [27] The typical configuration for this sight is a compact curved mirror reflector design with a red light-emitting diode (LED) at ...

  5. Telescopic sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescopic_sight

    The scope base is the attachment interface on the rifle's receiver, onto which the scope rings or scope mount are fixed. Early telescopic sights almost all have the rings that are fastened directly into tapped screw holes on the receiver, hence having no additional scope base other than the receiver top itself.

    Most ACOG models, when mounted to a carry handle, have an open space through the mount to allow the use of the rifle's iron sights without removing the scope. [citation needed] Others include Docter or Trijicon [9] reflex sights mounted on top, such as the TA11SDO (SU-258/PVQ) and the TA648MGO (SU-260P). [10]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aimpoint_CompM2

    The sight is designed for use with the M16/M4 family of rifles, but can be mounted on any weapon fitted with an upper Picatinny rail. It is also NVG-compatible—the aiming dot is still visible through night vision scopes and goggles. The Army's M68 designation was also applied to a later version of the sight, the Aimpoint CompM4.

    Mark III free gun reflector sight mk 9 variant. Another type of optical sight is the reflector (or "reflex") sight, a generally non-magnifying optical device that allows the user to look through a glass element and see a reflection of an illuminated aiming point or some other image superimposed on the field of view. [7]

  9. Specter (sight) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specter_(sight)

    The Tri-Role (TR) is the more unique optic in the line, although operation remains mostly the same, except the changing of the magnification now happens on the dial on the left of the optic; it can only have a red dot as illumination, and features a different mounting solution.
