Vortex Optics Defender-CCW 3 MOA Micro Red Dot Tan: The Ultimate Compact Sight for Personal Protection
When it comes to personal protection, every millisecond counts. Your gear needs to be fast, reliable, and accurate — and the Vortex Optics Defender-CCW 3 MOA Micro Red Dot Tan (DFCCW-MRD3-T) delivers exactly that. Designed for shooters who demand quick target acquisition and rugged durability, this micro red dot is built to help you come out on top in any situation.
Slim and Sleek Design for Any Handgun
The Defender-CCW features a slim profile that fits everything from full-size handguns to micro-compacts with ease. Its compact, lightweight single-piece chassis weighs less than an ounce (0.95 oz.) and measures just 1.59 inches in length, making it an unobtrusive yet powerful addition to your firearm.
Large Viewing Window & Brilliant 3 MOA Dot
With a large sight window, the Defender-CCW provides a wide field of view, allowing you to quickly pick up your target. The bright red 3 MOA dot offers crisp, clear reticle visibility for precision aiming in any lighting condition — from bright daylight to low-light environments.
Rugged Durability for Daily Use
Crafted for the toughest conditions, this red dot sight features a ShockShield polymer insert to absorb impacts and protect against hard daily abuse. Its low-glare matte tan anodized finish resists corrosion and wear, ensuring your optic stays looking and performing like new. It’s waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof — designed to withstand the harshest environments and highest recoil levels.
Intelligent Features for Speed and Battery Life
The Defender-CCW is motion-activated, automatically turning on when it detects movement, and features a 10-minute auto shutoff to conserve battery life. This means it’s ready to go when you are, without wasting power during downtime. The button lockout feature prevents accidental brightness changes while on the move or in transport, and changing the CR1632 battery is a breeze with the convenient top mount battery compartment — no need to re-zero your sight after replacement.
Customizable Brightness & Night Vision Compatible
Offering 8 daylight brightness settings, this red dot is easily visible even under bright sunlight, giving you faster center-point acquisition. The two lowest settings are night vision compatible, making it a versatile sight no matter the time or scenario.
Precision Adjustments and Parallax-Free Design
The sight offers 1 MOA adjustment graduations with a travel per rotation of 30 MOA, plus maximum elevation and windage adjustments of 110 MOA and 105 MOA respectively. The parallax-free design minimizes aiming errors, ensuring that your point of aim stays true even when your eye position shifts slightly.
