Not every enclosed red dot needs to cost $300+ or weigh half a pound. The Athlon Midas Blaze TSR2 delivers the sealed tube protection, 50,000-hour battery life, and motion-sensor activation of Athlon's higher-tier Midas dots in a 5.5 oz package at under $200 — making it the most accessible enclosed red dot in the lineup without cutting the features that matter.

The 2 MOA dot provides a fine aiming point through a 25mm fully multi-coated objective, and the 0.5 MOA click adjustments give you precise zeroing control. The enclosed tube design keeps rain, dust, and debris away from the emitter — a real advantage over open-emitter dots in field conditions. Ten brightness settings handle everything from dim indoor ranges to bright sun, and the motion sensor sleeps the unit after 5 minutes of inactivity, waking it the instant movement is detected.

Two picatinny mounts are included: a 1.57" high mount for 1/3 co-witness with AR iron sights, and a 0.82" low mount for shotguns and lower-profile setups. The aircraft-grade aluminum chassis is nitrogen purged, waterproof, fog-proof, and shockproof.

Key Features

• Enclosed tube design with 25mm objective — sealed emitter protected from rain, dust, and debris
• 2 MOA red dot — fine enough for precise shot placement, fast enough for close-range work
• 50,000 hours battery life — over 5 years of constant-on runtime at medium brightness
• Motion-activated sleep/wake — sleeps after 5 minutes of inactivity, wakes instantly on movement
• 0.5 MOA click adjustments — finer zeroing precision than standard 1 MOA red dots
• Two mounts included — 1.57" high mount (1/3 co-witness on ARs) and 0.82" low mount (shotguns, low-profile setups)
• Fully multi-coated optics — bright, true-color dot projection
• 5.5 oz / 2.8" — lighter than most enclosed tube red dots in its class

Ideal For

Budget-conscious AR and PCC shooters who want enclosed-emitter reliability without the premium price — the Blaze delivers the same 50,000-hour battery life and motion-wake as Athlon's higher-tier Midas dots at a lower entry point.

Shotgun hunters who need a rugged, low-profile optic that handles recoil and weather — the included 0.82" low mount sits close to the bore, and the sealed tube shrugs off rain and brush contact.

First red dot buyers who want a forgiving, feature-rich optic to learn on — the enclosed tube eliminates the front-lens tinting of open dots, the 2 MOA dot is precise without being hard to find, and the motion-wake means it's always ready.

Compatibility

Mounts to any standard picatinny rail. Two mount heights included: 1.57" high mount for 1/3 co-witness with standard AR iron sights, or 0.82" low mount for shotguns and low-profile platforms.
