Burris AR-1X Prism Sight: Tactical Clarity at Close Range
The Burris AR-1X is purpose-built for modern rifle shooting where speed and situational awareness matter. This 1x20mm prism sight delivers a fundamentally different shooting experience than traditional red dots—one that rewards both-eyes-open technique and fast target acquisition.
Key Features
- Both-Eyes-Open Design: The prism optics allow you to keep both eyes open while shooting, maintaining full peripheral vision and situational awareness
- Reticle Flexibility: Push-button activation cycles through green, red, and black reticle options to match your lighting conditions and preference
- Exceptional Battery Life: A single lithium battery provides 5000+ hours of continuous operation
- Backup Capability: The black reticle is etched directly onto the prism glass, so the sight remains fully functional even if the battery fails
- Trajectory Compensation: Easy-to-read hash marks on the reticle provide holdover references out to 600 yards
- Low-Light Performance: Optimized lens coatings reduce glare and enhance performance in dim conditions
- Night Vision Compatible: Works seamlessly with night vision equipment for specialized applications
- Compact Footprint: The streamlined design leaves adequate rail space for additional optics like flip-out magnifiers
Why the AR-1X Works
This is a sight designed by shooters for shooters. The prism-based magnification eliminates parallax issues, the reticle options adapt to any environment, and the both-eyes-open viewing makes target transitions instinctive. Whether you're running a defensive rifle, competition gun, or hunting platform, the AR-1X delivers reliable performance without unnecessary complexity.
