Introducing the 3RX — A Smarter System for Serious Shooters

Since launching in 2017, our mission has always been the same: to create high-performance eyewear that meets the real-world needs of precision shooters and archers alike. We began in the world of archery, and in 2020, we introduced the 2RX – a model that quickly became trusted by thousands for its lightweight design, adaptability, and optical clarity.

Since then, our range has expanded to include models like Fulcrum and Axiom, and we’ve become recognised primarily for our work in the clay shooting, trap shooting, skeet, sporting & practical shooting disciplines, with eyewear trusted by competitors across the world. As our customer base grew and evolved, we listened closely to what shooters wanted next – especially those looking for purpose-built clay shooting glasses and sporting shooting eyewear.

The result is the 3RX — not just a successor to the 2RX, but a complete reimagining of it.

Still lightweight, still modular, but now stronger, more refined, and better suited to the demands of modern shooting sports. With improvements to fit, adjustability and lens changing, alongside compliance with current protective eyewear standards, the 3RX reflects everything we’ve learned over the years – built from the ground up to meet the needs of serious clay and sport shooters.

So, what’s new?

LIf you’ve used the 2RX, you’ll feel at home with the 3RX — but you’ll also feel the difference immediately. Every component has been upgraded, re-engineered, or refined based on years of user feedback. It’s faster, stronger, more stable, and better suited to the needs of serious shooters.


Here’s a Roundup of What’s Changed:

  • Improved Magnetic Lens Change System: Redesigned for faster, smoother swaps with improved magnetic grip and a precision-fit clamp system.
  • New Adjustable Smooth Action Temple Hinge Screw: Lets you adjust temple-arm resistance and clamp tension to dial in your preferred feel.
  • New Lens Shape: Offers improved fit across a wider range of users and face shapes.
  • Redesigned Pantascopic Tilt Mechanism: Now with two downward positions – Intermediate, and Full Tilt – plus a locking screw for controlled resistance and stability.
  • Stronger Internal Components: Built for long-term durability and reliability.
  • Updated Nose Pad System: Fixed-fit with pivot-mounted rubber pads for better comfort, airflow, and lens positioning.
  • Slimmer, Adjustable Temple Tips: Low-profile, bendable metal-core arms for a tailored fit that’s even more ear defender-friendly.
  • Improved RX Insert WIth Anti Scratch Guards: High-position mount for an open field of view, with rubber guards to help prevent contact between the prescription insert and shooting lens while maintaining airflow.
  • New and Classic Lens Colours: Includes many trusted favourites from the 2RX range – plus new tints developed for even greater contrast and adaptability.
  • Updated Protective Eyewear Standards: Complies with EN ISO 16321-1 and ANSI Z87.1.
  • Updated Case: New hard-shell case foam design to fit 3RX lenses with nose pads.

Already Got the 2RX? Let’s Answer Your Questions

We get it — if you already own the 2RX, you’ve got questions. What’s compatible? What’s changed? Is it worth the switch? Here’s everything you need to know if you’re moving from 2RX to 3RX.

Can I use 3RX lenses or parts with my 2RX?

No. 2RX and 3RX lenses and components are not interchangeable.

Although the two systems share some design principles, the 3RX was extensively redesigned, including changes to the lens shape, nose pad, frame components and fit. Each system should therefore be used with the lenses and components designed specifically for it.

Will 3RX lenses fit in my old 2RX case?

No. 3RX lenses do not fit correctly in the original 2RX case.

The integrated nose pad on the 3RX lens requires additional space that the original 2RX case insert wasn’t designed to accommodate. 3RX kits therefore use an updated case and foam insert designed specifically for the newer lens system.

Will the new 3RX nose pads fit on 2RX lenses?

No. The 3RX nose pad is designed specifically for the 3RX lens and is not compatible with 2RX lenses.

Is the 2RX RX insert compatible with the 3RX?

No. The 2RX and 3RX RX inserts are different designs and are not interchangeable.

The 3RX uses an integrated lens-mounted nose pad and a redesigned RX insert that works specifically with the 3RX system. Existing 2RX RX inserts therefore cannot be transferred to the 3RX.

Will 3RX lens colours be available for 2RX?

No new 2RX lens colours are planned.

The 2RX is now a legacy model, so our current lens development is focused on the 3RX and our other current eyewear systems. Existing 2RX lenses will continue to be available while stocks remain.

Is the 2RX discontinued?

Yes. The 2RX is now a legacy model and has been succeeded by the 3RX.

We continue to support existing 2RX owners with remaining lenses and spare parts where stock is available, but discontinued items will not be restocked. Availability varies by component and lens colour, so the website will always show the latest stock position.

Shooters looking to replace or upgrade their 2RX should consider the 3RX or Axiom, depending on the features and lens choice they require.
