Lucid Optics announced a revised version of their M7 Micro Red Dot sight, which will replace its predecessor on Lucid’s red dot lineup.  They’ve made a few major changes to the M7 Micro Red Dot sight, to include a modular mounting system and a different battery to power the M7.  The previous version had been powered by a single AAA battery, while the newer version utilizes a CR2032 battery.  Something completely missing from the new version of the M7 is an automatic brightness setting for the reticle.  Lucid Optics’ full press release can be seen below:
