Viridian Weapons Technology is known for making lasers, lights, and light/laser combinations for your rifle or pistol. Recently, the company announced the introduction of their new Viridian Reflex Sights also known as RFX. The new RFX sights from Viridian feature a green dot versus a traditional red dot.

The new RFX comes in three different sizes. Each model number corresponds with the relative size of the optic. First, is the RFX15 which features a 17x24mm window and a uses a Shield footprint. Next, is the RFX25 which utilizes a 20x28mm window and uses a Docter footprint. The final optic is the RFX35 that features a 22x26mm window and takes advantage of the popular RMR footprint.
