Sight magnifier

A sight magnifier is an optical telescope that can be paired with a non-magnifying optical sight on a weapon to create a telescopic sight.[1][2] They work with the parallel collimated reticle image produced by red dot sights and holographic weapon sights.[3][1] They may synonymously be referred to as a red dot magnifier, reflex sight magnifier, holographic sight magnifier, or flip to side magnifiers.
