It's hard to name a company more synonymous with red dot sights than the Swedish Aimpoint. This renowned manufacturer has remained true to its principles for 50 years and constantly strives for perfection, as we've seen with, among other things, during the recent Aimpoint Product Familiarization Course event organized in cooperation with the brand's official Polish distributor – the Hubertus Pro store.
The manufacturer regularly introduces new products. This time, a refreshed version of one of its popular red dot sights has debuted. Has hell frozen over? The latest model – the AIMPOINT DUTY RDS™ MR – offers not only a perfect 2 MOA red dot, but also a 65 MOA split-circle reticle and the ability to display both simultaneously. Selecting the appropriate mode for a given scenario is done by holding the brightness increase button.
In terms of design, the AIMPOINT DUTY RDS™ MR is similar to its predecessor – the AIMPOINT DUTY RDS™. It retains its key features: shape, compact size, low-profile adjustment knobs, and a side-mounted CR2032 battery compartment. However, the number of available brightness levels has been increased – now there are 12 (previously 10), including four night vision compatible ones. A motion-activated instant-on system has also been implemented, which turns on the sight upon detecting movement and automatically puts it to sleep after two hours of inactivity.
The new model is made of a durable, high-quality aluminum alloy and is submersible to a depth of 25 meters. In Poland, the sight was priced at PLN 3,800 (around 894 EUR).
