Vortex Defender CCW 6MOA Red Dot

The Vortex Defender CCW 6MOA Red Dot is a micro-sized red dot designed for modern everyday carry, delivering maximum concealment, dependable function, and first-shot quickness you can trust when there’s nowhere to run. This compact optic is built for true EDC duty, offering a crisp sight picture and fast target acquisition that stay reliable under the daily hustle. If you demand speed and precision in a slim profile, the Defender CCW aims to be your go-to concealed carry sight without adding bulk to your kit.

At the heart of its design is a Large Hard Coated Aspherical Lens that yields a distortion-free sight picture across the field of view, making quick draws and rapid alignments feel natural. The micro footprint doesn’t compromise performance; the 6 MOA Defender Dot remains instantly recognizable in bright daylight and dim environments alike. For those who depend on speed, the Defender CCW’s motion activation wakes the dot with motion and then powers down after 14 hours of inactivity to maximize battery life, so you’re ready when you need it without hunting for a switch in low-light moments. A ShockShield polymer insert cushions the 7075 aluminum body from recoil and everyday bumps, preserving zero and extending the life of your sight in real-world use.

The Defender CCW is built for speed right out of the box. Fast-Rack Texturing on the face of the optic provides an aggressive, tactile surface that makes racking the slide off a surface or ensuring a stable grip during a press quick and reliable. The Top Mount Battery design simplifies field maintenance—swap batteries quickly without re-zeroing the optic, so you can stay on target without interruption. With 8 daylight brightness settings, you’ll have a bright central dot that remains highly visible from full sun to overcast days, ensuring rapid dot acquisition regardless of weather or stance. Parallax is negligible in practice, and the Unlimited Eye Relief guarantees rapid target focus from a variety of shooting positions, whether you’re kneeling, standing, or prone.

Designed to perform in diverse environments, the Defender CCW features Night-Vision Compatibility for the two lowest settings, enabling use with night-vision gear without washing out the reticle in low-light scenarios. Waterproof and fogproof construction comes courtesy of O-ring seals that keep moisture, dust, and debris out, so you can rely on the optic whether you’re in a sandy desert, humid climate, or cold, damp conditions. The sight is also built to endure temperature fluctuations and environmental stress with rugged, Shockproof construction that withstands recoil and impact. A Low-Glare Matte Black Anodized finish reduces glare and helps camouflage your position while maintaining durability, and the Single-Piece Chassis keeps the overall package compact and lightweight for extended carry without fatigue.

Key specifications reinforce why this optic is a practical choice for shooters who want dependable performance without sacrificing form. The Defender Dot is a 6 MOA red reticle with a 1x magnification for true-to-life accuracy at practical handgun distances. Parallax settings are effectively parallax-free in normal use, and the optics are mounted on a Shield RMS/RMSC-compatible interface for broad compatibility with many popular pistols and platforms. At a mere 4 cm (1.59 inches) in length and 26.9 grams (0.95 oz) in weight, the Defender CCW keeps your firearm’s balance and concealment intact. Eye relief is unlimited, enabling rapid, instinctive aiming from awkward positions when it matters most. The rugged build and tight tolerances give you confidence for daily carry or precision work at the range.
