C&H Rifle red dot

C&H Precision unveiled a new “tube” style 22mm red-dot sight meant for use with modern shotguns, rifles and PCCs (pistol caliber carbines).

The C&H Precision ERD-2 is a traditional style enclosed-emitter compact reflex sight with a 3 MOA red dot and a 50,000-hour battery life. Beyond the basics, the C&H Precision ERD-2 red-dot sight is equipped with a front-facing sensor and auto-dimming technology that allows the unit to rapidly adapt to changing light conditions. These reflex sights also include the customary manually adjustable brightness settings. Ten settings are available, two of which are night vision compatible.

The ERD-2’s external housing is compact and ruggedized. C&H manufactures these reflex sights from industry standard 7075 series aluminum. Use in inclement weather is no issue with the ERD-2 because it was also designed to be fully submersible in one meter of water for at least 30 mins. For the convenience of end-users, ERD-2s include a Picatinny-compatible pedestal mount.

"The ERD-2 represents the perfect balance of rugged reliability and cutting-edge technology," said Buck Holly, owner of C&H Precision. "We designed this optic to meet the needs of shooters who demand top-tier performance, whether they’re on the range or in the field. The ERD-2 is built to handle anything you throw at it while providing unparalleled ease of use."
