The CT RAD Micro (Rapid Aiming Dot) Electronic Sight is an ultra-compact Open Reflex Sight for compact and subcompact pistols. Featuring a red 3 MOA aiming dot, the CT RAD Micro has a recessed and fully multi-coated lens with a large quick acquisition window. The CT RAD Micro comes with the CT RADIANT Ambient Light Sensor that automatically adjusts the aiming dots brightness to the surrounding lighting condition. The Micro is easily installed on an optics cut slide using the CT micro footprint that is also compatible with the Shield RMS and JPoint footprints. The Micro has a rear sight notch cut into the back to line up with your front iron sight. Made of 7075 Series Aerospace Aluminum, it is 30% stronger than most industry standard sights made with 6061 Series Aluminum. The entire CT RAD family has an Innovative top strap design that deflects force if the sight is dropped. Our engineers developed a better way to reduce stress on the lens of reflex sights. By combining out-of-the-box thinking with next-level physics, we designed a system that both re-enforces your optic and reduces stress if it happens to get dropped. All this comes with our CRIMSON Protect Lifetime Warranty.

Ok, i got this one and the new vortex ccw, at the same time, i mount the vortex in a springfield xd-s mod 2 and i like it at first but i dont like the 14 hrs shutdown feature, so i install this CT-Rad and honestly i like it more, the auto brightness is what i like , not worry about setting change during the day or nigth, and the vortex side buttons are too soft, even after "locking" the desired brightness, the buttons are easily pressed to change level of brightness.I think the ct-rad pro is better because the wake on feature, and shutdown faster but, not a deal breaker for me.I have an rmr and a sig zero, and i like them more than the vortex, still pretty nice red dot though, but is going to be mounted in a ruger 10/22, just because i don't have any more handguns to give it an use for now. By the way in my springfield xd-s mod 2 the ct rad fits perfectly like a glove, and no mount plate needed , so the vortex too, but a little more wider.
