BLASER RED DOT SIGHT – RD 17

Fast on target
Driven hunts are an essential means to control wild boar populations. Shooting on moving game is the particular challenge. Red dot sights incorporate the ideal solution for an accurate shot. They ensure fast, intuitive target acquisition, as both eyes remain open. Thus red dot sights decisively contribute to better shooting.

The elegant, extremely slender design of the new Blaser red dot sight RD17 provides the best possible view in any situation – before and after the shot. All operating elements are designed for easy and safe operation when the hunter ­is ready to fire. Ten illumination settings allow for the optimum adjustment of the red dot‘s intensity with all lighting conditions. Thanks to its robust construction, the innovative Blaser red dot sight RD17 withstands even adverse weather conditions.

High-performance coating for excellent red dot contrast
Lens protection through Blaser flip cover
Extremely slender design for a maximum visual field
Low construction height thanks to ­specially adapted Blaser Saddle Mount
Battery life of up to 50.000 hours

IIC – INTELLIGENT ILLUMINATION CONTROL
If the illumination control of the RD17 has not detected movement for three ­minutes, the lighting unit automatically switches into power saving mode. When moving again, the red dot is instantly available in the intensity that has been adjusted last. Thanks to IIC, the RD17 provides a battery lifetime of more than 50,000 hours.
