Vortex Micro 6x Magnifier
The Vortex Micro 6x Magnifier is a compact flip-to-side optic designed to extend the reach of your red dot or holographic sight out to mid-range distances. With 6x magnification and a 28mm objective lens, it delivers a clear, detailed sight picture for identifying and engaging targets farther out while still maintaining close-quarters speed when flipped out of the way. Its quick-attach cam-lock mount allows fast transition between magnified and unmagnified views, while multiple height spacers ensure compatibility with a wide range of red dot setups. Built from rugged aircraft-grade aluminum, it’s waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof for dependable field use. Lightweight, durable, and easy to deploy, it’s backed by Vortex’s lifetime warranty for long-term confidence.
