Aiming optics

Equip your compressed air weapon with the right scope for precise aiming. Telescopic sights greatly improve the accuracy at various distances. We offer different sights depending on the type of compressed air weapon. Choose between classic ocular scopes and tactical red dot sights, each of which has its own advantages.
In our range, you will find high-quality sights and optics from renowned manufacturers. We rely on the quality and experience of brands such as Walther, Valken, Cyber Gun and Tiberius Arms.

Mounting rings and accessories for attaching riflescopes

In order to place the riflescope or red dot sight securely on the air rifle, mounting rings with rails are required. Both the diameter of the ring and the millimeter specification of the rail are decisive when choosing the right mounting. It is best to check which mounting for the scope fits your airgun before you buy it. Only a few simple steps are required for mounting. The mounting ring can be easily fixed in place using a screw.

Sight optics for compressed air weapons are not merely a comfort upgrade, but a functional component that has a direct influence on hit location, consistency and repeatability. Air rifles, compressed air pistols and CO₂ systems operate with limited energy and comparatively short effective ranges. This is precisely why clear sight optics determine whether potential is utilised or wasted.

This category is not about optics as decoration, but about precise alignment and reproducible aiming.

Why target optics are useful for compressed air weapons

Open sights quickly reach their limits with many compressed air weapons. Small target areas, changing light conditions or longer distances make it difficult to keep the holding point constant. Target optics reduce precisely these variables.

They help to:

clearly define the point of impact
make dispersion visible
identify errors in the shooting position
exploit the full potential of the weapon

Especially when sighting in, comparing ammunition or training at fixed distances, a clean optic is often more decisive than further modifications to the weapon itself.

Rifle scopes – classic precision tools

Rifle scopes with eyepieces and magnification are the first choice when it comes to controlled shooting at fixed distances. They enable clear target resolution and an exactly reproducible target image.

Typical features:

Fixed or variable magnification
Reticle for hold point correction
Parallax adjustment depending on model

Important for compressed air weapons: Not every rifle scope is suitable for recoil or kickback impulses. Spring-powered systems in particular have different requirements than CO₂ or compressed air weapons. Here, the internal mechanics determine durability and point of impact stability.

Areas of application:

Air rifle at 10–30 metres
Precise zeroing
Target training

Disadvantage: Riflescopes are slower to change targets and less suitable for dynamic applications.

Red dot sights – fast, clear, direct

Red dot sights do not use magnification and rely on an illuminated target point. They are ideal when quick target acquisition is important and the target is not observed for long.

Advantages

Binocular aiming possible
Fast sighting
Low weight

Limitations

No magnification
Less precise for dispersion analysis

Red dots show their strengths with pistols, short distances and movement-oriented training. They are less suitable for pure precision work, but are extremely intuitive.

Magnification, reticle and lighting conditions

When choosing the right optics, it is not a case of ‘more is better’, but rather of finding the right fit for the application. Excessive magnification not only enlarges the target, but also every movement. This can be counterproductive, especially when shooting freehand.

Rings should be:

clearly visible
not too fine for short distances
evenly illuminated

Illumination is helpful in changing light conditions, but should be dimmable. Target points that are too bright obscure the aiming point and make it difficult to aim accurately.

Mounting rings and rail systems – often underestimated

Good optics are only as stable as their mounting. Mounting rings and adapters are not a minor detail.

Important points:

Correct ring diameter (e.g. 25.4 mm or 30 mm)
Suitable rail width (11 mm prism rail or 22 mm Picatinny)
even tightening of the screws

Rings that are tightened too much can warp the optical tube, while optics that are mounted too loosely lose their zero point. Especially with rebound systems, proper mounting is crucial for point of impact stability.

Material quality and durability

Sights for compressed air weapons must be precise, but not necessarily oversized. Important factors are:

Clean mechanics
Reliable adjustment
Shock-resistant construction

Brands such as Walther, Valken, Cyber Gun and Tiberius Arms rely on tried-and-tested solutions that are tailored to the requirements of compressed air systems. Not every model is suitable for every type of construction – this should be clear before purchasing.

Typical mistakes when choosing optics

Excessive magnification
Unsuitable mounting
Incorrect rail width
Lack of parallax adjustment
Optics not tailored to the system

Many precision problems are not due to the weapon, but to the target optics or their mounting.
