TacFire Flip-to-Side 3X Red Dot Magnifier — 3×, 30 mm, Black Anodized (RDX3MB | UPC 686294505270)
Extend your red dot’s reach without sacrificing speed. The TacFire Flip-to-Side 3X Red Dot Magnifier adds true 3× magnification behind your favorite optic so you can identify targets, call hits, and place more precise shots—then instantly flip it out of the way for rapid, both-eyes-open red-dot speed. With a rugged black anodized body, a 30 mm optical system, and an included flip-to-side mount, RDX3MB delivers a clean sight picture and dependable alignment at a price that makes sense for range days, training, and duty-ready builds.
Why Add a 3× Magnifier to Your Red Dot?
Instant Versatility: Run 1× for CQB and snap transitions; flip to 3× when you need PID (positive identification), holdovers, or precision at distance.
Zero Retention: The magnifier does not alter your red dot’s zero—simply align the magnifier to the dot for a centered, parallax-free view.
Enhanced PID: Read targets, terrain, and barricades more clearly to make smarter decisions and cleaner shots.

Model / UPC: RDX3MB | 686294505270
*Mount height determines co-witness; verify the magnifier’s centerline height and your red dot’s mount height for perfect alignment.
Built for Real-World Use
Rugged Housing: Anodized aluminum shrugs off bumps, rain, and hard cases; ideal for classes, patrol rifles, and range abuse.
Repeatable Flip Mechanism: Positive detents lock the optic in-line or stowed so it won’t drift under recoil.
Tool-Friendly Adjustments: Dial in a perfectly centered dot with simple windage/elevation tweaks—set it once and go.
Optical Performance You’ll Notice
Clear Glass, Crisp Dot: Quality coatings keep the image bright and the dot well-defined for precise holds.
Edge-to-Edge Usability: A comfortable eye box helps you stay behind the glass in awkward barricade positions.
Fast Transitions: Flip-to-side action takes milliseconds—no re-zero required.
Ideal Setups & Use Cases
General-Purpose Carbines: Pair with a micro red dot for a do-everything rifle from 0 to ~300 yds (ammo, barrel, and skill dependent).
Duty & Defensive: Keep 1× speed indoors; add 3× clarity for outdoor PID and longer-range identification.
Competition & Training: Clean sight picture for small steel at distance; instant stow for hoser stages.
Mounting & Compatibility Tips
Height Matters: Match the magnifier’s optical centerline to your red dot’s mount (absolute or lower-1/3 co-witness). If needed, use spacers.
Positioning: Mount the magnifier on the rear rail slot behind the red dot; verify full eye relief with your stock position and cheek weld.
Alignment: Center the dot via the magnifier’s windage/elevation aligners—don’t touch your optic’s zero.
Flip Orientation: Set the hinge to flip left or right based on your sling, light switch, and manual-of-arms preferences.
Final Check: Confirm cheek weld, dot centering, and return-to-index after a few flips under recoil.
Care & Maintenance
Lens Care: Use a blower and microfiber cloth; avoid harsh chemicals.
Fastener Check: Re-check ring and mount screws after the first range session; use blue threadlocker as appropriate.
Keep It Clean: Wipe the body after wet or dusty days; store with lens caps on.
