Choosing between close-quarter or a magnified sight for their weapons in preparation for a missions is a challenge faced by many soldiers. One size fits all usually does not apply to every mission. The Elcan Specter dual-field-of-view rifle sights systems has been around for a while now and offers a solution to this problem. The Specter DR 1-4x sight provides close-quarter and precision-fire capabilities for machine gunners while the Specter DR 1.5-6x sight intended for precision/long-range fire. Both have been selected by USSOCOM units for use on elite spec ops missions in theatre. The price to pay to get your hands on one however, was pretty high. That was until now!
