A couple of months back I was invited out to an event hosted by AMERIGLO in which they revealed the company’s first-ever red dot sight. The AMERIGLO Haven is the first pistol-mounted red dot to be offered by the company as they move towards specializing in concealed carry and self-defense-oriented products. AMERIGLO has said that their number one priority with the Haven is to provide the end-user with a concealable or everyday carry capable red dot sight that can be used to defend oneself and comes with a number of features and options that make it a turn-key solution for those who are looking to make the switch from iron sights to a red dot sight.

The AMERIGLO Haven has proven thus far to be a reliable durable red dot. It has loads of other cool features like a side-loading battery tray, large and intuitive controls for changing the power settings, and featuring AMERIGLO’s propriety Carry-Lock lock-in mode. The red dot also features a large window for high visibility as well as a rear etched vertical post for faster dot acquisition for those who are not quite used to shooting red dots yet.

Another cool feature is that AMERIGLO will also be offering the Haven in a “Carry-Ready” configuration for Glock MOS handguns. This special package will include not only the AMERIGLO Haven red dot optic but also a pair of co-witness height sights that will pair your new red-dot sight perfectly with your MOS pistol and will keep you from having to hunt for a set of compatible co-witness sights. The AMERIGLO Haven will begin shipping on December 13th, 2021, and will retail for an MSRP of $379.00 for the optic only.
