Viridian Introduces RFX Black Label Optics

The RFX15, RFX16, and RFX35 Black Label green dot optics feature Quick Change Reticle controls, accessible battery compartments, and a matte-black finish with blackout markings.

Viridian’s RFX Black Label lineup includes the RFX15, RFX16, and RFX35.

Viridian Weapon Technologies today introduced RFX Black Label, a new series of green dot reflex optics that includes the RFX15, RFX16, and RFX35.

Each Black Label optic features a CNC-machined aluminum housing with a matte-black anodized finish and laser-engraved blackout markings. Fully multi-coated glass is standard across the series.

Viridian's Quick Change Reticle (QCR) system lets users cycle through three reticle options with a simultaneous press of the two brightness buttons. The options include a 2 MOA green dot, a 32 MOA circle, and a combined circle-dot reticle. All three models feature windage and elevation adjustments with tactile clicks. Accessible battery compartments let users replace the battery while the optic remains mounted. All three models feature motion-activated INSTANT-ON technology, automatic shutoff after approximately two minutes of inactivity, and waterproof and shockproof construction.

"With Black Label, we wanted you to notice the difference the moment you picked one up," said Brian Hedeen, president of Viridian. "You see it in the blackout finish and the crisp green reticles. You feel it in the positive clicks of the adjustments and how easily you can switch between all three reticle options."
