The Leupold DeltaPoint Micro Reflex Sight 3 MOA Dot Matte S&W M&P (Model LE179570) is a fully enclosed, ultra-low-profile red dot sight engineered for fast target acquisition and reliable performance. Designed specifically to mount directly into the rear dovetail slot of Smith & Wesson M&P semi-automatic handguns, this optic serves as a direct replacement for the factory rear iron sight. This direct-mounting design eliminates the need for expensive custom slide milling or aftermarket optics plates, allowing shooters to maintain a streamlined profile on their firearm.

Key Features:

• Direct Dovetail Mounting: Installs directly into the existing rear dovetail slot using the included dovetail insert and mounting screws, preserving the factory slide profile.
• Natural Co-Witnessing: Sits at the exact same height as factory iron sights, aligning the 3 MOA red dot directly with the front iron sight for an intuitive transition.
• Motion Sensor Technology (MST): Automatically deactivates the red dot after 5 minutes of complete inactivity to conserve battery, instantly reactivating upon detecting movement.
• Rugged Enclosed Design: Constructed from lightweight, aircraft-grade aluminum to protect the emitter from dirt, water, and debris, featuring an IPX7 waterproof rating and scratch-resistant DiamondCoat lenses.
• Australian Power Compliance: Powered entirely by a single CR1632 coin-cell battery, requiring no 240V mains power, charging docks, or Australian SAA/RCM electrical safety certifications.

Who It Is For:

The Leupold DeltaPoint Micro is designed specifically for handgun owners who want the speed and precision of a red dot sight without modifying their pistol's slide. In the Australian market, where handgun ownership and modifications are highly regulated across different states and territories, this optic is highly suited for licensed sport shooters participating in approved club-level competitions, such as IPSC (International Practical Shooting Confederation) or service pistol matches, utilizing Smith & Wesson M&P centerfire pistols. Because it aligns perfectly with the factory front sight, it is also an ideal choice for shooters transitioning from traditional iron sights to optical sights, providing a familiar and natural point of aim.
