Plymouth, MI (January 2026) – When something is ultra-tough and can withstand even the harshest conditions, you must ask yourself “Why would I want to make this even tougher?”  The answer is because you can.  For over 30 years, EOTECH has been manufacturing durable, dependable Holographic Weapon Sights for use in law enforcement, military, competition, hunting and recreational use.  It has become the go-to 1X optic you can count on.  HWS optics were designed to include a ruggedized aluminum hood that wraps around the housing of the sight to provide extreme strength and durability.  Until now.

New for 2026, EOTECH introduces the EXPS3 HD, featuring an all-aluminum housing. This Heavy-Duty model allows EOTECH to eliminate the aluminum hood and provide users with an enhanced field-of-view and better situational awareness.

The EXPS3 HD includes a few new features never offered in an HWS. First, the rubberized buttons that manipulate reticle brightness and NV settings, has been replaced with an easy-to-use rotary dial. This dial offers 7 daylight and 4 night-vision brightness settings as well as an OFF position. In addition, the dial offers an Auto-Brightness setting that automatically adjusts to surrounding light conditions, removing the need for manual adjustments. Lastly, the rotarydial allows EOTECH to incorporate Shake-Awake technologythat puts the optic in sleep mode after a period of inactivity. This programmable sleep mode can be set to 10 minutes, 1-hour, 12-hours, or disabled completely.  This feature works in all daytime, NV, and auto-bright settings and preserves battery life, while powering the optic on with only the slightest movement.

The EXPS3 HD weighs the same as the legacy EXPS (11.2 oz) and is powered by a single, CR123 lithium battery.  Integrated into the housing is a locking, adjustable quick-detach base that allows for immediate removal or attachment.  The trusty 68MOA ring and 1MOA aiming dotprovides uncompromising speed to target and accuracy. Both waterproof and fogproof, this battle-tested sight works even if the sight window breaks or becomes partially obstructed.

The HD model is ideal for close to medium distance engagements.  With its rugged metal construction and its ability to withstand extreme levels of recoil, it can be used with virtually any firearm and caliber.  The Heavy Duty EXPS3from EOTECH.  The tough just got tougher.

Plymouth, MI (January 2026) – EOTECH is committed to delivering high-performing, dependable pistol optics that shooters can trust with their life.  This commitment continues with the introduction of the EFLX Closed Emitter (EFLX-CE). Dedicated to meet the needs of our customer base, the EFLX-CE provides a fully enclosed housing to protect the LED emitter from damage or debris.  

The EFLX-CE offers a durable, heavy-duty 7075 aluminum housing that provides a square viewing window.  Large, recessed, rubberized buttons are positioned on the top of the housing making adjustments easy for both left and right-handed shooters.  These buttons control eight daytime brightness settings, including an ultra-bright level and night vision setting.  And in case of catastrophic situations, a built-in rear iron sight is integrated into the housing to get you through it.

The EFLX-CE’s improved electronics offer selectable reticle options that include either a 3MOA aiming dot, 42MOA circle, or the circle/dot combination.  Slots on the windage and elevation screws have been enlarged to accommodate a tool, coin, or even spent brass.  These adjustments offer precise 1MOA clicks with the subtle audible sound and solid detent.

The EFLX-CE’s customized electronics offer a programmable sleep mode function.  Through simple button manipulation, users can choose between a 10-minute, 1-hour, or 12-hour sleep mode or disable this function entirely.  While enabled, and with even the slightest movement, the EFLX-CE can power up through its Shake-Awake technology.  A single 2032 battery provides approximately 25,000 hours of run time with the single dot and when it’s time to change the battery, an easy access, side-load battery compartment makes the process quick and straightforward.

The mounting configuration is compatible with both Leupold®Delta Point Pro™ or Shield® RMS-c™ footprints. Two torx flathead fasteners and a tool are included for mounting the EFLX-CE to the slide.

The hardened EFLX-CE removes the fear of LED damage or obscurity due to dirt, water, or other debris.  This lightweight, compact, and cost-effective optical solution was engineered with the professional pistol shooter in mind. Consisting of both foreign and domestic parts, the EFLX-CE is proudly assembled in the USA.
