## Description

desertcart.com : Vortex Optics Defender-XL Micro Red Dot Sights (5 MOA) : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Great competition optic! - This optic is so big and so clear, I might as well be looking through a brand new windshield! Holds zero perfectly! I don’t have a single thing to complain about this optic!
Review: great choice - comes with mounting hardware for several mount styles, be sure to check yours though. very nice product, easy to use and install.

## Features

- Made for competition, the Defender-XL is built around an ultra-wide (25.5mm x 23.3mm) sight, aspherical window that enhances field of view, delivers quicker target acquisition, faster, more accurate follow-up, and greater flexibility in unconventional positions.
- Built on a DeltaPoint Pro footprint with 12 brightness settings (10 daylight and two night-vision settings), the dot adapts to any lighting conditions and helps reduce eyestrain. Button lockout mode prevents unintentional setting changes.
- Equipped with motion activation, the red dot will automatically shut off after 10 minutes when the auto-shutoff feature is turned on. By allowing the unit to shut off, the dot will turn on automatically the next time it's picked up.
- The Defender-XL is powered by a top loaded, CR2032 battery. Although battery life varies based on user habits, the battery runtime with the red dot continuously active at setting 6 is 25,000 hours.
- The fast-rack textured front face adds grip for racking slide off of any surface while the ShockShield polymer insert protects against hard use. Waterproof, shockproof and with ArmorTek coating protecting the lens, the Defender-XL is ultra-durable.
- Backed by our unlimited, unconditional, lifetime, VIP Warranty. A fully transferable promise to repair or replace your item if it becomes damaged/defective. Does not cover loss, theft, deliberate damage or cosmetic damage that doesn't hinder performance.
