Most of us remember the days when super compact pistols were relegated to iron sights. Thankfully, those days are behind us, and optics on guns are now commonplace. Viridian has now made an optic for one of the OG’s of the compact pistol world – the Ruger LCP MAX. Today, they announced the release of the RFX1 Green Dot Reflex Sight for the Ruger LCP MAX.
Viridian’s RFX1 Green Dot Reflex Sight – The Smallest Green Dot Sight on the Market
The RFX1 Green Dot Reflex Sight is the first and only optic engineered exclusively for the Ruger LCP MAX. Designed to deliver unmatched accuracy, lightning-fast target acquisition, and a seamless fit, the RFX1 brings cutting-edge performance to one of the most compact concealed carry pistols in the world.
Utilizing the rear sight dovetail for mounting, the RFX1 installs directly onto the LCP MAX slide—offering a perfect fit that enhances both function and form. Whether you’re a daily carrier, personal defense user, or first-time optic buyer, the RFX1 is the smallest green dot reflex sight ever created, designed for intuitive use and maximum concealability.

“We set out to create the most compact, powerful, and user-friendly sight possible—and that’s exactly what the RFX1 delivers,” said Brian Hedeen, President and CEO of Viridian Weapon Technologies. “It’s tailor-made for the LCP MAX. This pairing defines what a modern concealed carry setup should be—sleek, responsive, and ready for anything.”
Featuring a brilliant 3 MOA green dot, fully multi-coated optics, and unlimited eye relief, the RFX1 allows for fast, accurate targeting in virtually any lighting condition. The auto-brightness sensor instantly adjusts the dot’s intensity to match your environment, and Viridian’s patented INSTANT-ON Technology ensures the optic is always ready when you are.
