Shield Mini Sight (JPoint)
World’s original, smallest, lightest, toughest mini day / night sight for all military, law enforcement and sporting small arms.
- Parallax free, clear polymer optic, which can withstand up to ten times greater shock impact than products using glass optics.
- Unlike many competing products, the MiniSight is designed without a red reflective filter on the lens to ensure minimal visual signature.
- The sight body is moulded from a lightweight polymer which, in testing, has proven to be more resilient than other reflex sights produced by our competitors.
- Variable intensity drive circuit that senses target light levels and controls LED output giving optimum visibility of the dot against the target.
- Available in different dot sizes, tailored to your application.
With over 100,000 delivered to date, Shield's Mini Sight has a proven track record.
Over 15,000 units are in use by the British regular army and Special Forces, as well as US, Australian, New Zealand Special Forces and other NATO forces.
Also used by competitive firearm sports men and women across the globe.
The Shield Mini Sight is currently sold under the JPoint brand in the USA. Sold under other brand names for many years, you may have previously known the Mini Sight as the Firepoint, Tasco Optima or Trijicon RedDot.
Please note that the Shield Mini Sight is in most cases not subject to UK Export Control.
