Specter DR Dual Field Weapon's Sight
ELCAN Optical Technologies


Specter, built by ELCAN Optical Technologies. The range of Specter products includes daylight optical sights (red dot and optical sights), night sights and thermal sights. Elcan has added to the Specter range the Specter DR dual field of view sight (1x/4x). The sight lets combatants move safely through buildings or confined areas using red-dot mode and then instantly switch to 4x to accurately engage targets at extended range without changing sights. Situational awareness in both magnifications is improved with ultra-wide viewing angles.

Looks good, but yea I'm expecting it to cost way more than my rifle.

For a second, I got half excited thinking it was an amazing compact day/night sight.

But it's just a 1X red-dot sight or a 4X sight? Is that really much better than any cheap 1-4X variable power scope? I can't say I have ever had the opportunity to use a red-dot sight myself though, so may be mistaken.

I think the SUSAT/ACOG deals with close in targets nicely enough though.
