Duty Arms Index

Compare rifle optics

Patrol rifle red dots, holographic sights, prisms, low-power variable optics and magnifiers compared on the maker's own published specs. Agency adoption for rifle optics is still a small sample in the index. Values are copied as published, with a source and access date for each; missing values say “Not published”. How we compile specs.

Data coverage: 21 rifle optics with a maker spec sheet. Adoption is based on 12 agencies in the Duty Arms Index with a current, sourced rifle optic entry on a long gun; SWAT / tactical-unit entries are not counted. Counts include only current entries with a public source; agencies not yet in the index, or without a sourced entry for this item, are not counted, so treat shares as a picture of the Duty Arms Index, not of every agency. These counts cover US agencies only; agencies outside the US are not included here (see agencies by country). Data last updated Oct 11, 2026.
