Introducing the next generation of low-profile, high-performance Red Dot engineered for modern everyday carry. Built specifically to fit on subcompact handguns, the micro-sized Vortex® Defender-CCWTM delivers maximum concealment, reliability and the first-shot quickness you need when facing a threat with nowhere to run.
It’s just 1.6” long and weighs less than an ounce, but features a taller window than other micro red dots—so you get a bigger, better sight picture for enhanced situational awareness. The slim profile means no extra bulk or width for a smooth, snag-free draw from under clothing along with less chance of printing—so the only one on the street who knows you’re packing is you.
The bright, sharp 3 MOA red dot helps you get on target faster and defend more accurately, even in low light. Motion-activated, so it’s ready to go in an instant. Auto-shutoff to preserve battery life. Fits full-size to micro-compacts. Meant for those who prioritize personal protection, the Vortex Defender-CCW lets you carry more discreetly, defend faster, and shoot more accurately when life is on the line.
