Vector Optics OMEGA 8 Reticle Red Dot Sight

If you're a fan of the functionality of Open Reflex sights but want a more modern look, the Vector Optics OMEGA 8 Reticle Red Dot Sight belongs on your primary! This updated version of the iconic open reflex sight is constructed from aluminium with steel mounting bolts and features an integral 20mm Picatinny QD rail mount, allowing it to be easily mounted and switched between different 20mm rail-equipped Airsoft guns without needing tools. Being constructed from aluminium alloy makes the sight strong and light, but as always, we recommend using a lens protector when skirmishing. 

The OMEGA 8 requires a single CR2032 button cell (not included) to power it, but thankfully, these are readily available and last ages as long as you remember to turn your sight off after the game! To access the battery compartment and install your battery, pull out the battery tray on the right side of the optic, insert your CR2032 facing upwards and slide the tray back in. 

Like many popular "open" red dot sights, the OMEGA 8 Red Dot Sight provides reticle options suited to different scenarios and ambient light conditions. Your choice of reticle type can be input via the dial on the rear of the sight, offering 8 various options, all suited to different engagement types.

The Dot reticle gives you a nice open sight picture with a clear peripheral for maximum situational awareness, just like other red dot sights. The ringed dot is ideal for close quarters, giving you an easy and fast-to-acquire ring with a central dot for more accurate shots. The cross reticle is great for engaging moving targets and lobbing shots at long range, and the ringed cross combines all reticle types for maximum functionality at a small sacrifice of losing a small amount of your field of view. 

Along with offering a choice of several reticle types, you can also select your preferred illumination colour (either red or green) and brightness level using the buttons on the left side of the sight. We recommend using the lower brightness settings in dark environments and the brighter ones in brighter conditions to keep the reticle crisp and clear. 

If you’re after a versatile, classic-style optic that fits perfectly on modern rifle builds, the Vector Optics OMEGA 8 Reticle Red Dot Sight deserves a spot on your shortlist. It brings all the much-loved features of the original Open Reflex, now upgraded with refined controls, a tougher housing, and a QD mount. This is the Open Reflex design taken to its ultimate evolution.
