01 — The line
Start with what you are mounting it to, then choose what your eye does best with. The reticle is picked on the card, and the preview shows you what you will be looking through.
RMR30 x 23 mm window, one-piece 7075-T6, RMR footprint. 30,000 hours on a CR1632 and 12 brightness settings, two of them night-vision.
Reticle
6 of 6
Most chosen — All three references at once: the dot for precision, the 6 MOA circle for speed, the 60 MOA ring to lead your eye back after a transition.
RMScFully enclosed on a compact RMSc footprint with a 24 x 17 mm window. Zero slide overhang, and it shares screws with a Holosun 407K/507K.
Reticle
3 of 3
Most chosen — The dot and the ring together on a footprint small enough to disappear under a shirt.
Pre-order10x42 glass with a red OLED display and angle-compensated ranging out to 2,500 yards, with horizontal distance read out for you.

02 — Engineered
A reflex sight is a window you shoot through. Make it small and you hunt for the dot on every transition; make it big and badly, and the glass distorts at the edges where you need it most. The Skyraider's window is trimmed to the shape of a human field of view rather than to a rectangle, which is why the dot presents faster coming out of a transition.
The rest follows from the housing. One piece of 7075-T6 aluminium, not two halves bonded together, is what lets a 1.5 ounce optic take 12 gauge 00 buckshot recoil and hold zero at 5,000 G.
03 — The glass
Astigmatism turns a small bright dot into a starburst, which is why a lot of shooters give up on reflex sights and go back to irons. A larger, dimmer reference solves it: the 6 MOA circle carries the brightness without the flare, so you can hold a target focus instead of having your eye pulled into the dot.
One of our reviewers put it better than we can. He has astigmatism in both eyes, and the circle is what lets him bring the brightness up in daylight with little to no distortion.
Every reticle below is a configuration you can order today, at the same price. Choose it in the shop before you add the sight to your bag.
Compare all six reticles04 — Fitment
The Skyraider shares RMR mounting screws and fits every OEM RMR mounting kit, and the MOS kit is in the box — so it goes where your last optic went. The Skywarrior is RMSc and shares screws with a Holosun 407K/507K.
05 — Ordering
Every optic, every order, anywhere in the United States. There is no threshold to reach first.
Registering the product is what validates the warranty, so do it the day it arrives. It takes a minute and it is the only condition.
There is no support tier to climb. One reviewer had a reply on a Sunday; another had an email thirty minutes after ordering, offering to move him up to the Gen 2.

“At first I was a bit skeptical with this optic. Big window, multi reticle, etc. I've seen this done before...or so I thought! The window on this optic is shaped in a way that presents the dot faster on transitions and the multi reticle option proves to be more useful than I thought it would be. The 6moa Circle allows me to bring the brightness up in the daylight with little to no distortion. This is a big gain for me as I suffer from astigmatism in both eyes.”

The one who can design it

Give back
A portion of profits goes to organisations championing veterans, hunters and shooting sports.
This industry is flooded with subpar options, both cheap and overpriced. We are trying to put high-end tactical optics at a price that means the equipment is never your limiting factor.
The shooting team
The shooters who run our optics in competition. Equipment should never be the limiting factor, and these are the people who prove it.
