Crimson Trace RAD Pro Reflex Red Dot Sight - 1x 3 MOA Dot, Matte Black$249.95$269.95
Availability: In Stock
The Crimson Trace RAD 5 MOA green dot sight is a full-size reflex optic built for shooters who demand speed and reliability on the range or in defensive carry. Engineered around a green 5 MOA aiming dot, this matte black sight delivers fast target acquisition with a large, uncluttered viewing window—ideal for pistol shooters working at intermediate distances who want a color that stands out in varying light conditions. The RAD is designed to mount directly to optics-cut slides using the CT RAD footprint, which shares mounting compatibility with Docter-pattern cuts, giving you flexibility across modern handgun platforms.
Build quality is a cornerstone here. The housing is machined from 7075-series aerospace aluminum, a material 30% stronger than the 6061 aluminum found in most competitor sights. The recessed, fully multi-coated lens is protected by an innovative top strap design that deflects impact forces if the sight takes a drop—a thoughtful bit of engineering that actually reduces stress on the optic itself rather than just the housing. Textured grip surfaces along the sides make racking the slide secure and controllable even when gloved up.
Battery life is practical: a single CR2016 cell lasts over 7,000 hours—well over a year of typical operation. An automatic shutoff kicks in after 8 hours of continuous runtime to stretch that life further, or you can manually toggle brightness via large side buttons that work intuitively with or without gloves. The sight is IPX7 waterproof and shrugs off shock, impact, and fog. Everything is covered by Crimson Trace's lifetime warranty.
