Aimpoint® Magnifiers Explained
Aimpoint® magnifiers are designed for use with Aimpoint red dot reflex optics delivering ultimate picture clarity. The superior optical glass provides the most durable, clear sighting solution available. Aimpoint magnifiers work perfectly with Aimpoint red dot sights, utilizing the red dot in the optic as the aiming reticle. This allows the shooter to shift between non-magnified and magnified aiming without the need to re-zero the optic. The magnifier can be mounted on multiple weapon platforms behind an Aimpoint red dot sight or used as a hand-held monocular.
Aimpoint products are subjected to brutal testing, including exposure to extreme heat, cold, physical abuse, and submersion under water. From arctic temperatures to desert sand, the ruggedness of Aimpoint sights and magnifiers stand up to any challenge. Aimpoint sights and magnifiers are trusted by hunters, sport shooters, military, and law enforcement officers around the world. When your life depends on your equipment, don’t settle for anything less.

Aimpoint® Magnifier Mounts
Aimpoint offers two magnifier mounts that attached to MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rails – the TwistMount™ and the FlipMount™. Both mounts utilize the same base which attaches directly to the rail. Aimpoint magnifiers fit into either the TwistMount or the FlipMount upper 30mm mount ring. The TwistMount optic ring turns out while the base remains secure on the weapon platform. The upper portion of the mount, along with the magnifier, can be stored for later use or immediately employed as a hand-held monocular. The FlipMount optic ring will also twist off the base while offering the capability of flipping the magnifier outside of the optical axis if no magnification is needed.
