MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – June 23, 2023 – Viridian Weapon Technologies’ RFX45 Closed Emitter Green Dot Reflex Sight, which received great interest at SHOT Show 2023, is now shipping.

The RFX45 is available at retailers across the country and direct from ViridianWeaponTech.com.
The all-new RFX45 is packed with industry-leading features while offering a tremendous value to all shooters. A rock-solid machined 6061 aluminum housing, fully multi-coated lenses, audible and tactile adjustability, INSTANT-ON® activation with memory and auto shut off, and a 50k-hour battery life are just a few of the features that make the RFX45 Closed Emitter Green Dot Reflex Sight a must-have for any shooter.
“Eyes see green better, and the RFX45 is a workhorse that comes standard with a lot of technology designed to benefit the shooter,” said Viridian Vice President of Sales Andy Scott. “The RFX line as a whole has been well received by our customers and consumers because of the features of each optic coupled with green dot technology. As with all Viridian products, we started with the design and put features and specs into these offerings to make them stand out in the market.”
The Viridian reflex sight family is comprised of lightweight, green dot electro-optics designed to fit multiple mounting footprints and hold up to the toughest conditions. These sights offer Viridian’s INSTANT-ON® technology, as well as user control for activation, and are powered by a CR2032 battery. They’re easy to mount, include tools in the package and have an auto-off feature to maximize battery life. The RFX45 features an ACRO-compatible mount and various adapters and mounts available as a part of a kit or sold separately.
