Rix Optics (Visir Inc) Rixstorms6 Storm S6 Thermal Black 3.5X35Mm, Multi Reticle, 2X Zoom, 640X480, 12 Microns, 50 Hz Resolution

The RIX Optics Storm S6 thermal rifle scope brings serious detection capability to hunters and precision shooters who need to see in complete darkness or through obscuring conditions. This handheld thermal optic pairs a 35mm objective lens with a 3.5x magnification base and 2x digital zoom, delivering a 12.5-degree field of view that balances situational awareness with target detail. Built on a VOx uncooled thermal sensor with 640×512 resolution and 12-micron pixel pitch, the Storm S6 refreshes at 50 Hz—fast enough for dynamic hunting scenarios where your target or your position might shift.

Built tough for field use, the Storm S6 is rated IP67 weather-sealed and tolerates temperatures from -4°F to +122°F, so it'll perform whether you're glassing a winter draw or a summer stand. The compact package weighs just under a pound and measures 5.3 × 2.5 × 2.2 inches, fitting naturally into a pack or gun mount setup. Power comes from a single 18650 battery (3200 mAh capacity), good for approximately 5 hours of continuous operation, or you can feed it 5V via USB Type-C for extended sessions. Recording and playback happen on the integrated 32GB memory with built-in OLED display (1024×768 resolution) and Wi-Fi at 2.4GHz, so you can review footage or stream to a phone in the field.

Mount it on any Picatinny rail—the optic is rated for rifle recoil up to 1000g (6000 Joules), so it'll handle your centerfire hunting rifle without flinching. Diopter adjustment from -5 to +5 lets you dial in eye relief (48mm native) for a crisp sight picture, and the multi-reticle options let you choose your aiming preference. A genuine thermal scope in a genuinely portable form factor—the Storm S6 is built for hunters and shooters who refuse to be limited by darkness or weather.
