Is the rifle cocked, then the illuminated reticle is on. With the iC concept from the two innovation leaders Blaser and Carl Zeiss this is always the case. Activating the illuminated reticle in crucial moments can no longer be forgotten. For the first time, rifle and rifle scope are synchronised in their functions. In the same moment the hunter cocks the R93, the illuminated reticle of his Varipoint rifle scope switches on. A small magnetic encoder in the cocking slide of the R93 iC is connected to a sensor on the underside of the Varipoint ocular thus activating the illuminated reticle. This results in a calmer approach to the moment before the shot is taken.
The following situation is well known to many hunters: Silently and unexpectedly your game comes into view, the window of opportunity for a clear shot is limited. Your pulse is racing as you mount the rifl e, aim and then realize your illuminated reticle is not activated. Being frustrated it’s hardly possible for an accurate shot. With the R93 iC events like this are things of the past: the hunter carefully mounts the rifl e, silently pushes the cocking lever forward and aims accurately thanks to the illuminated reticle which was automatically activated when the rifle was cocked.
The advantages of the iC concept are crystal clear: even when being under great pressure, forgetting to switch on the illuminated dot can not happen. Through is activated and remains illuminated as the cocking slide, the illuminated reticlelong as the rifle is cocked. Right hand shooters will enjoy the ergonomic design of the R 93 iC cocking lever because there is no need to remove your forward hand to activate the illuminated reticle. Shooter and rifl e are connected as one unit. This innovative feature also benefi ts left hand shooters because they do not need to release the pistol grip to activate the illu minated reticle.
Every R 93 can be retrofi tted to accept the iC system. The Blaser dealer sends the bolt assembly to the Blaser factory where the iC cocking slide can be fitted.
