The KDG Optics Hub is a lightweight, high strength modular housing for your favorite spotting scope. Unlike other products on the market, the Optics Hub works with a wide array of different spotting scopes from various manufacturers. The Optics Hub is designed to allow the user to select their choice of spotting scope, easily mount it into the Hub, and slave other accessories to the outside of the unit. Laser range finders, mini-red dot sights, and laser target designator can be co-aligned to match the center focal point of an etched reticle. This allows the spotter to acquire a target faster, properly identify it, and start collecting data all in one fluid motion. Additionally, this can be accomplished without drastically breaking your field of view, or looking away from the Optics Hub for other accessories. With (22) individual M-Lok slots, and (14) 1/4-20 TPI standard camera sized threaded inserts, the Optics HUB can be set up in unlimited configurations. A spotting scope can be easily set up with a red dot sight to get on target quickly, immediately range the target after PID, and read wind and ballistic corrections off weather meters, smart phones or PDAs attached to the sides of the unit. When it is time to move, the entire Optics Hub can be quickly placed into a pack after being detached from a tripod. The underside of the Optics Hub offers additional mounting points for both different sized camera shoes, and for fine tuning the placement of the spotting scope in the housing. The "cube" style aluminum construction acts as a protective cage to the spotting scope, and as a flat surface for stability when used independently from a tripod. The Optics Hub also features two quick detach (QD) swivel sockets, akin to those found on rifle hand guards. These sockets allow for more tethering and carriage options. For the military spotter, the Optics Hub works perfectly with the issue Leupold Mk4 12-40 TPI x 60mm M151 spotting scope. With or without a fabric cover, the scope can be mounted into the Optics Hub and paired with other issued optical systems. KDG plans to grow the Optics Hub line, with the addition of forward NODS mounting accessories, and rear mounted DSLR camera adapters.
