Strike Industries REX Reflex Exoskeleton - Universal Picatinny Mount, Black

The Strike Industries REX Reflex Exoskeleton with universal Picatinny mount is a steel-built protective cage designed to shield reflex optics from the hard knocks of duty or field use. If you're running a compact red dot on a pistol, rifle, or handgun platform and want real impact protection without the weight penalty, this minimalist exoskeleton wraps your optic in steel while staying under 2.5 oz total. Strike's patent-pending universal mounting pattern accommodates a wide range of popular reflex sight footprints, so you're not locked into one brand.

The shield itself is precision-cut steel with a durable QPQ black finish, while the mounting base uses hard-anodized black aluminum to resist corrosion and wear. Eight included mounting posts let you dial in the right fit for your specific optic. The system ships with a low-profile Picatinny/NATO rail mount that can also be used standalone if you want to shed weight—clip the exoskeleton when you need the armor, ditch it when you're running lean. The skeletonized design keeps sight lines open and avoids the blocky bulk of heavier guards.

Strike built this for shooters who don't want to baby their glass. Drops, bumps, and shock to the turrets or body get absorbed by the cage, not by your optic's internals. Before you order, check compatibility: the REX works with Docter, Burris Fastfire, Vortex Viper, Vortex Venom, Leupold Delta Point, Redfield Accelerator, Trijicon TRD, Trijicon RMR, and other standard patterns. It is not compatible with Vortex Razor pattern, C-MORE STS/STS2/RTS, or Delta Point PRO footprints.
