Reflex Sights Going Green by Viridian

Monday, May 2nd, 2022

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – April 25, 2022 – Viridian Weapon Technologies continues to expand on the fact that human eyes see green better and has introduced reflex sights designed from the ground up to improve performance and provide rapid target acquisition.

The Viridian Reflex Sight family brings light-weight, green dot-powered reflex sights designed to fit multiple mounting footprints, hold up to the toughest conditions and provide 30,000+ hours of battery life. These sights offer user-controlled or Viridian’s INSTANT-ON® technology for activation and are powered by CR2032 batteries. They’re easy to mount, include tools in the package and have an auto-off feature that kicks in after two minutes.

“Eyes see green better, and we’re excited about our reflex sites powered by green dot technology,” said Viridian President and CEO, Brian Hedeen. “As with all Viridian new products, we started from scratch with the design and put features and specs into these offerings to make them standout in a crowded market.”

These sights are backed by Viridian’s seven-year warranty, fit both compact and full-size handguns and have viewing windows maximized so shooters can get the most benefits around target acquisition and clear fields of view.

All specifications and options for the new Viridian Reflex Sights are available at ViridianWeaponTech.com.

Emissary Development – X300 Paddle Shifter Installation Tool

Tuesday, March 8th, 2022

Emissary Development’s two-piece X300 Paddle Shifter installation tool was designed in-house and will be included with every X300 Paddle Shifter.

Since the paddle armature of the X300 is “spring loaded” and can be pushed forward we have designed a tool that braces and supports the armature in place. This makes it significantly easier to push your Paddle Shifter into place and fully seat it onto the armature.

The tool is designed to split in two after install to prevent it from impacting or moving the Paddle Shifter after it has been set in place.

They will also be including a 1/4” extraction tool bit that will make removing the stock switches a breeze.

They are still on course for a March release but can’t give out any concrete launch dates just yet.
