The CTS-1100 Battlesight has been designed for easy acquisition and rapid engagement of close to medium range targets.

The CTS-1100 is ready to mount right out of the box, with an integrated M1913 Picatinny rail mount for rifles and carbines. The thoughtful and innovative designed sight is shock, impact, fog, and vibration resistant. The entire Crimson Trace Electronic Sight line is part of the FREE Batteries For Life program and are covered under the 3-year Protection Guaranteed Warranty.
 
The CTS-1100 is a magnified optic offering 3.5x magnification. Crimson Trace refers to it as an Illuminated 3.5x Battlesight, and it is intended for use on a rifle or carbine. Utilizing the integral mount puts it at the right height to use on an AR-style rifle.
The housing for the scope is machined from one solid piece of aluminum that includes an integral M1913 compatible mount. With the integral base, this scope weighs 1 pound and is 5.4 inches long by 2.3 inches wide by 3 inches tall in size. The only things not aluminum on the exterior of the scope are the polymer protective wings just in front of the windage adjustment turret and the control pad for the illumination brightness.
Why call it a 'Battlesight?' Low-power magnified scopes have been chosen by militaries for use on rifles for decades. The 3.5x magnification allows you to see targets at all distances more clearly while still providing a good field of view.
 
Illuminated Reticle
The illuminated bullet-drop compensating (BDC) reticle is a bit of a hybrid and is Crimson Trace’s own design. As for the illumination controls, they’re just three raised buttons. The forward button is the on/off. The two rear buttons are to adjust the brightness up and down. One push of the activation button turns the illumination on, and holding the button for three seconds shuts it off.
