Description
ACM Kill Flash for Micro Dot (Black)
The ACM Kill Flash for Micro Dot is a black anti-reflection device that fits over the front lens of micro red dot sights. A kill flash uses a honeycomb-style grid to stop sunlight glinting off the glass, so an opponent is less likely to spot you by the flash from your optic.
ACM makes a wide range of affordable airsoft optics and accessories, and this kill flash is a simple, inexpensive way to make your sight harder to see and to give it the look of a modern military setup. It suits players running a compact micro red dot on a carbine, SMG or pistol-calibre carbine.
Why use a kill flash
Glass lenses can catch the sun and send a bright flash across the field, especially when you are in cover looking out towards an open area. A careful opponent will spot that flash long before they see you. The honeycomb grid of a kill flash blocks light coming in at an angle, which cuts down on glare and reflections while still letting you see through the sight.
A kill flash also offers the front lens some protection from scratches, twigs and stray BB hits, though it is not a replacement for a proper lens protector on a sight you use at close range.
What to expect
Looking through a kill flash, the image is slightly darker and you may notice the grid pattern faintly, especially in low light. Most players find it makes little difference in daylight. If you play indoors or in dim conditions, you may prefer to remove it for those games.

Compatibility
Designed for micro red dot sights. Optic replicas vary in lens size and housing shape between brands, so check the product images and, if possible, compare the fit with your own sight before ordering.
Care and maintenance
Remove the kill flash from time to time to clean the lens beneath it, as dust and moisture can collect behind the grid. Clean the grid with a soft brush or gentle air rather than poking into the cells. Check it is seated firmly before each game.
Who is it for?
