Walnut, CA – When you purchase a battery-powered optic from Holosun Technologies Inc., there’s a good chance the first battery you install will be the only battery you will ever need. Sound far-fetched? Well, consider that Holosun’s dot only reticles run on one CR2032 battery–for up to an amazing 50,000 hours of use!

In fact, many of Holosun’s Micro and Open Reflex and Tube Reflex Sights are rated at up to 50,000 hours of use from a single battery. That’s 50,000 hours or 2,083 days from one small battery, in both Holosun’s Classic and Elite lines of optics. The HS507C pistol sized Open Reflex Sight can work for up to 100,000 hours (4,166 days for those wondering!) before you need to change out the battery.

(MANSFIELD, TEXAS) – Sightmark is proud to announce the release of the latest generation of Ultra Shot reflex sights, ripe with upgrades and a fresh new design. With three available models; R, A and M-Spec, Sightmark has created resilient close-range optics perfect for everything from target shooting to law enforcement and military operations on both AR platform firearms and shotguns. All RAM series sights are now powered by a CR123A battery, which provides superior battery life (200-2,000 hours) over other red dots and reflex sights. A wide lens quickens target acquisition while helping to maintain a wide FOV. Quick-detach models include an improved QD lever allowing a low profile to keep the sights from snagging on gear or unlatching during the heat of the moment.

Ideal for target shooting and hunting, the Ultra Shot R-Spec (SM26031), or Range Spec, features four reticle options with red or green illumination and a new low battery indication which prompts the reticle to blink when the battery is low. The R-Spec boasts 10 brightness levels, from low light to sunny outdoors, and slotted windage and elevation adjustments, able to be changed with a flathead or common tool. Read more

ANN ARBOR, Mich. – EOTech, an L3 company, announced today that it has introduced two new holographic weapon sights (HWS), the XPS2 Green and EXPS2 Green, at the 2018 National Rifle Association’s (NRA) Annual Meetings and Exhibits in Dallas, Texas.
The XPS2 and EXPS2 sights have been favorites of hunters, shooters and law enforcement officers since their introduction in 2009. Now, with the addition of easy-to-see green reticles, which make it approximately six times easier to see in daylight, the XPS2 Green and EXPS2 Green provide users with faster target acquisition.
“EOTech’s new easy-to-see green reticles enhance our proven XPS2 and EXPS2 HWS, expand our portfolio and ensure that our products continue to meet the demands and expectations of our loyal customers,” said Ann Hanson, Chief Marketing Officer for EOTech. “We are excited to launch these new sights during this year’s NRA Annual Meetings, and look forward to seeing and hearing the response from the market.”
At just 3.8 inches in length and weighing a mere 9 ounces, the XPS2 is the shortest and lightest HWS offered by EOTech. It runs on a single 123 lithium battery, and its compact configuration leaves more rail space for rear iron sights or magnifiers.
The EXPS2 sight features easy-to-adjust side buttons and a quick-detach lever. Its increased height of 2.9 inches enables iron sight co-witness access in the lower third of the viewing window. Like the XPS2, the EXPS2 runs on a single 123 lithium battery.
The manufacturer’s suggested retail prices of the XPS2 Green and EXPS2 Green are $665 and $699, respectively. Read more
