Fixed magnification has an obvious problem: it is excellent at forty metres and close to useless at five. Roll into a building with a 4x optic and you are looking at a wall through a magnifier while somebody shoots you.
The DR sight solves it. A small red dot sits piggybacked on top of the main optic, so a slight change in head position switches you from magnified precision to a fast close-range sight picture. No adjustment, no swapping, no compromise on either — it is the same approach used on issued combat optics for the same reason.
The base optic is the same fixed 4x32 combat sight, mounting to standard 20mm Picatinny rail.

Good to know before you buy
The reason to choose this over the plain COG is the close-range capability — if you only ever play woodland at distance, the standard version costs considerably less. Currently out of stock.
Frequently asked questions
How do I switch between the two sights?
You do not switch anything — you change head position slightly. The red dot sits above the main optic, so raising your cheek weld puts you behind it.
Is the red dot any good on its own?
It is intended as a close-quarters supplement rather than a primary sight, but for the ranges it covers it does the job.
Does the red dot need a battery?
Yes, and it is worth carrying a spare. Ask us which cell it takes if you want to stock up in advance.
Is it worth the extra over the standard COG?
If you play mixed distances, yes. If you are always at range, no.
