Athlon Talos EDC Red Dot Sight - Compact Optic for Everyday Carry

The Athlon Talos EDC Red Dot delivers precision targeting in a compact package built for everyday carry applications. This micro red dot sight combines reliable performance with an affordable price point, making advanced optics accessible for concealed carry pistols and compact firearms.

What Makes This Different

The Talos EDC features a low-profile design that maintains your firearm's concealability while adding fast target acquisition capabilities. Unlike bulkier red dot sights, this optic measures just 1.8 inches in length and weighs only 1.2 ounces, minimizing impact on balance and draw speed. The sight uses a 3 MOA red dot reticle that provides precise aiming without obscuring small targets at extended ranges.

Key Features

• 3 MOA red dot reticle for precision targeting and fast acquisition
• Compact 1.8-inch length maintains low profile for concealed carry
• Multi-coated lenses deliver clear sight picture in various lighting conditions
• 10 brightness settings including 2 night vision compatible modes
• Shake-awake technology activates sight with movement after 10 minutes
• IPX7 waterproof rating withstands submersion up to 3 feet
• Standard RMR footprint fits most pistol slide cuts and mounting plates

Field performance centers on reliability and battery life, with the CR1632 battery providing up to 50,000 hours of operation on medium settings. The sight maintains zero through temperature changes and recoil cycles, making it suitable for duty carry, competition shooting, and personal protection roles. Aluminum housing construction resists impact damage while the lens coatings reduce glare and maintain clarity in bright sunlight or low-light conditions.
