The Close Quarter Battlesight (CQB) from UK producer Shield is a nonmagnified (1x) Mini Red Dot Sight. It is offered in 3 different red dot sizes:
1 MOA + 65 MOA ring
4 MOA dot
8 MOA dot (NSN 1240-99-555-2800)

It features variable intensity settings that at the low end can be seen with night vision devices and on the high end make the dot discernible in full day light. Battery life is from 1 to 3 years depending on the setting.

Shield has supplied over 20,000 of these CQBs to the British Army since starting production in 2010. The Shield CQB is subject to UK Export Control. Interestingly, it was developed from the Mini Sight which is NOT Export Controlled.
