At the SHOT Show 2020 Steiner introduced its new T-Sights, a series of compact optics especially designed for AR platforms in both 5.56mm and 7.62mm calibers. With the claim “Delivering pro features to the weekend warrior”, these tough sights are ideal for close and medium ranges and are available in three models according to the different magnification levels to choose from: the T536, T432, and T332, where the first number shows the magnification (5x, 4x or 3x) and the other two numbers indicate the objective lens diameter (36 or 32 mm).
All models feature the illuminated Steiner Rapid Dot Reticle with accurate holdover marks out to 600 yards. Depending on the lighting conditions the reticle can be set to 10 different brightness levels, including a non-illuminated, daylight, lowlight and Night Vision mode for use with NV goggles. Powered by a single CR2032 battery, in the illuminated modes, the full reticle is illuminated red, while in the non-illuminated mode the reticle is black. An adjustable diopter allow users to fine-tune focus. The T-series also has an integral Picatinny rail on the topside for auxiliary accessories, making it even more versatile
Steiner T-Sights, for quick close and medium range engagements
The new Steiner's “battle sights” are very short and lightweight. A rubber armoring ensures increased ruggedness. They are in fact shockproof, and waterproof (submersible up to 10 meters) and are fully adjustable up to +/- 50 MOA for elevation and windage. Turrets are easy to adjust and are ergonomically protected. In detail, the T332 offers up to 50 MOA of elevation and windage adjustability; the T432 and T536 have up to 40 and 35 MOA adjustability respectively. Thanks to its fixed 5x zoom with a 36 mm objective the T536 allows you to engage targets at longer ranges; at 3x zoom, the T332 is ideal for 3-gun competition or close quarter target engagement.
They are fog-proof (with nitrogen filling), with fully multi-coated lenses for brightness and clarity. The T-Sights come with a sunshade, flip-up lens covers and spacers for adjusting the sight height. Prices range from 735 USD to 919 USD, according to the model – see specs below.
