- The Defender-ST micro red dot is as versatile as your interests. Built on a DeltaPoint Pro footprint with 12 brightness settings, this optic can be part of your EDC setup, mounted for turkey or run in competitions with the included picatinny rail mount.
- Featuring a larger window than the Defender-CCW, the Defender-ST has a hard coated, aspherical lens. It is the perfect size for a smooth draw and wide enough to quickly acquire the dot while providing a distortion-free sight picture and truer colors.
- Defender-ST automatically activates with motion, while the 10-minute auto-shutoff saves battery life. The motion activation only works when the unit is in sleep mode. Button lockout mode prevents unintentional setting changes.
- Using a CR2032 battery, the Defender-ST has greatly improved battery life over the Defender-CCW line. Although battery life varies based on user habits, the battery runtime with the red dot continuously active at setting 6 is 25,000 hours.
- The fast-rack textured front face adds grip for racking slide off of any surface. Waterproof, shockproof and with ArmorTek coating protecting the lens, the Defender-ST is ultra-durable. The ShockShield polymer insert protects against hard, daily abuse.
- Backed by our unlimited, unconditional, lifetime, VIP Warranty. A fully transferable promise to repair or replace your item if it becomes damaged/defective. Does not cover loss, theft, deliberate damage or cosmetic damage that doesn’t hinder performance.

Using this on my 10/22. At 71 my eyes can’t see the iron sights and the target but this works perfectly. After 300 rounds it is still putting bullets through holes at 50 yds free standing. IMHO Vortex makes very high quality hardware.

Vortex is one of the leaders in optic they make A1 optic never owned one in my 61 years of owning many firearms. And probably won’t own one seeing that my order was stuffed with another brand name! Out of my 15+ yrs. Shopping on ngclab.com this has happened to me about 4 times! Not a happy feeling at all. When it’s your first optic ever! Knowing vortex reputation for quality I have to still rate it a 4-5Star without me receiving the correct item.

I’ve had really good luck with Vortex Optics on my guns. They are bright for indoor use, and their battery life has also been great. It’s a well-built optic and has held zero for me.
Max Verified Buyer –

Switched over from a Romeo X pro, night and day difference is window size.. much easier to see.
Also cannot go wrong with green.

This is super rugged and a less expensive option compared to an SRO. Plus, it is covered by the no questions asked Vortex warranty.

Good sight, tough and has about every mount you need in the box. Very nice to have a rail mount and the mounting screws for adapter plates.
