HHS® Advantages

Combine the speed of a holographic weapon sight with the precision of a flip-to-side magnifier. Instantly transition from close-quarters to long-range engagements without losing situational awareness. Its crisp reticle, rugged construction, and true 1 MOA aiming dot ensure fast, accurate shots in any environment—making it the superior choice for shooters who demand adaptability, clarity, and battle-proven performance.

RETICLE

<strong>0-RETICLE</strong> image

0-RETICLE

The 68 MOA speed ring with a 1 MOA dot enables fast target acquisition and provides three aiming points, calibrated for .223 Cal. 62 Gr., 2,900 Vel. Other calibers can be used by determining the ranges. With shotguns, the ring approximates shot patterns, which vary based on choke and shell type.

<strong>3x MAGNIFICATION</strong> image

3x MAGNIFICATION

Unlike red dots, the HWS reticle remains the same 1 MOA size under magnification thanks to holographic projection technology.
Why it matters: You see more detail and maintain precision accuracy without the reticle “blooming” or covering your target.

HWS® holographic optics let you view the reticle and target simultaneously for quicker, more intuitive target acquisition.

 

The HWS® continues to perform with precision even when the window is damaged or obscured, proving its reliability in the most demanding environments.

 

By projecting a holographic reticle at 200m, the HWS® minimizes parallax—making it the Close Combat Optic of choice for USSOCOM.

 

Instantly switch from 1x to 3x/5x magnification with a simple flip of the magnifier. Engage close targets fast, then transition to distant precision shots in seconds.
