Product Description
The Vortex Defender-CCW is an ultra-compact micro reflex sight engineered for everyday carry and rapid target acquisition. Designed with a slim, snag-free profile, this incredibly durable optic ensures quick first-shot acquisition while maintaining a low profile, ideal for concealed carry pistols. The bright green 3 MOA dot offers superior visibility across all lighting conditions, helping you get on target swiftly and confidently. This green dot sight is an excellent choice for those seeking a reliable and compact aiming solution for their handgun.
- Ultra-Compact Design: A low-profile and streamlined form factor is optimised for concealed carry, minimising snags during drawing, and boasts a micro-size with a slim profile for comfortable everyday carry.
- Green 3 MOA Dot: Provides a clear, high-contrast aiming point that is easy to acquire rapidly and is exceptionally visible in bright daylight. With 10 brightness settings, including 8 for daylight and 2 for night vision compatibility, it adapts to any environment.

- Mounting Versatility: Uses the common Shield RMS/RMSc footprint, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of popular compact and subcompact pistols. This makes it a versatile green dot sight for various handgun models, including those requiring an RMR footprint adapter.
