The Hawke Honeycomb Sunshade Objective 20mm (Model 62115) is a low-profile killflash accessory engineered for compatible Hawke optics from the 2015 collection onwards. Built with an integrated geometric honeycomb grid, this passive mechanical attachment eliminates internal tube reflections, cuts harsh daytime glare, and prevents forward lens glint without extending the overall length of the optical platform. Constructed from lightweight, matte black anodised aluminium, it threads directly into the front objective housing to act as a physical barrier against incidental brush contact and direct impacts.

Key Features

• Internal Reflection and Glint Elimination: Uses a structured honeycomb mesh to prevent downrange flash off the front glass element while stopping stray side-light from washing out the target image.
• Ultra-Compact Profile: Adds only 9 mm of depth to the front of the optic, preventing snagging in heavy vegetation and maintaining a balanced, front-light rifle configuration compared to traditional multi-inch tubular sunshades.
• Physical Objective Protection: Shields the primary front lens element from direct physical contact with tree branches, brush, and minor field impacts.
• Durable Metal Construction: Machined from anodised aluminium with a non-reflective matte black finish to minimise exterior shine.
• Passive Direct Interface: Threads directly into compatible post-2015 Hawke sport optics without adding electronic complexity or mechanical points of failure.

Specifications

• Depth / Added Length: 9 mm (approx. 0.35 in)
• Material / Finish: Anodised aluminium chassis, matte black
• Grid Type: Honeycomb killflash
• Attachment Method: Screw-in threaded interface
• Power Requirements: None (unpowered mechanical optical accessory)

Who is the Hawke Honeycomb Sunshade 20mm for?

• Stealth and Covert Hunters — Requires the elimination of forward lens flash in bright daytime conditions, utilizing a honeycomb sunshade threaded to a 20mm objective to stop downrange glint from spooking game without altering the shooter's position.
• Brush and Dense Scrub Shooters — Requires an ultra-compact 9 mm depth to safeguard the objective lens and avoid snagging on thick foliage, eliminating the bulk associated with traditional 50 mm or 100 mm tubular sunshades.

Less suitable for: Dawn, dusk, or heavy twilight scenarios where the physical grid mesh reduces available light transmission; a standard open-aperture 50 mm or 100 mm tubular sunshade is better suited to maintain maximum low-light performance without grid-induced light loss.
