Viridian 9810142 Rfx11 Flat Dark Earth 1 X 16 Mm 22 3 Moa Green Dot
The Viridian RFX11 is a compact reflex sight built for shooters who demand a lightweight, quick-acquisition optic on concealed-carry pistols and close-range rifle setups. At just 12.47 grams, this 1×16mm green dot sight delivers one of the smallest sight footprints on the market without sacrificing visibility or runtime. The RFX11's green reticle is optimized for how the human eye perceives color—sharper and faster to track than traditional red dots, especially in variable lighting and against green-heavy backgrounds.
The RFX11 runs on a single CR2032 battery with an impressive 30,000-hour lifespan on the middle brightness setting. Its ambient light sensor automatically adjusts brightness throughout your day, and the instant-on feature means the optic is ready when you draw. The sight is sealed to IPX4 rating and operates reliably from -4°F to 130°F, making it dependable whether you're training in winter or hunting in summer heat. Its Shield RMSc footprint ensures broad compatibility with popular optics-cut slides and allows easy mounting as an offset sight on your rifle.
Built from high-strength thermomolded polymer, the RFX11 combines durability with minimal weight penalty. The multi-coated glass lens produces a clean sight picture, and the unlimited eye relief means you can mount it however your setup demands. With 90 MOA of total adjustment, you'll dial in your point of impact quickly at the range or in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the RFX11 compatible with Shield RMSc optics-cut slides?
Yes. The RFX11 uses the Shield RMSc footprint, making it compatible with pistols cut for that standard. It also works as an offset sight on Picatinny rail systems for rifles.
What's included in the box?
The RFX11 comes with the sight itself, a CR2032 battery, a Picatinny rail mount, a wrench set for installation, a cleaning cloth, quick-start guide, and two sets of replacement screws (M3 and M4 options in two lengths each).
How long will a single battery last?
On the middle brightness setting, a CR2032 battery will run approximately 30,000 hours. The automatic brightness control and auto shut-off help maximize runtime in typical use.
Why green instead of red?
The human eye is naturally more sensitive to green wavelengths, making the green reticle faster to acquire and easier to track, particularly in variable lighting and outdoor environments.
