Sightmark Mini Shot M3 Solar
Reflex Sight – 3 MOA Red Dot with Solar Panel
Ultra-light, solar-powered and IP67 waterproof – the most compact solar reflex sight for pistol and rifle.
Solar-powered micro red dot – ultra-light and always ready
The Sightmark Mini Shot M3 Solar is an ultra-compact reflex sight with a 3 MOA red dot that is always ready to go thanks to its integrated solar panel and automatic brightness adjustment. Weighing just 45 g (without mount), it is one of the lightest solar reflex sights on the market. The front-facing light sensor automatically adjusts dot brightness to ambient lighting – no on/off switch, no manual adjustment. The CR1620 battery delivers over 20,000 hours of runtime, while the solar panel can power the sight entirely independently in sufficient light. The fully enclosed 6061-T6 aluminium housing is IP67 waterproof and withstands .45 ACP recoil and drops from 90 cm.
Technology · Power supply
Solar panel + automatic brightness – always on, always right
The top-mounted solar panel on the Mini Shot M3 Solar is more than a backup – it can power the sight entirely on its own in sufficient ambient light. Combined with the front-facing light sensor, dot brightness adjusts automatically: brighter in sunlight, dimmer at dusk. The result is an always-on sight with no on/off switch that requires no attention for adjustments – you focus entirely on the target. The CR1620 battery serves as reserve power and delivers over 20,000 hours of operation.
45 grams – the sight you forget until you need it
Measuring just 41 × 28 × 29 mm and weighing 45 g (85 g with mount), the Mini Shot M3 Solar is one of the most compact reflex sights available. Despite its size, it offers a full 20 × 15 mm viewing window and a precise 3 MOA red dot. The enclosed 6061-T6 aluminium construction reliably protects the optics from dust, dirt and moisture. The Shield RMS-C mount footprint ensures compatibility with a wide range of pistols and mounting plates.
IP67 & shockproof – built for tough conditions
The Mini Shot M3 Solar is rated IP67 for complete protection against dust and temporary submersion. It withstands .45 ACP recoil and drops from 90 cm. The flush-fit windage and elevation turrets (90 MOA / 60 MOA) are tool-operated and prevent accidental adjustment. The AR red lens coating is scratch-resistant and reduces reflections for a clear image. The operating temperature range of −30 to +50 °C makes the sight suitable for year-round use – from winter hunting to summer competition.
Sightmark Lifetime Warranty – lifelong protection
Sightmark backs the Mini Shot M3 Solar with the Sightmark Lifetime Warranty. This lifetime guarantee covers material and manufacturing defects and underlines the manufacturer’s confidence in the durability of its products. In addition, the statutory 2-year Swiss warranty applies.
