Ledehiviz Shooting Systems Celebrate

HIVIZ Shooting Systems, a leader in high-visibility sight solutions, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. Since its founding in 1996, the company has offered products that improve sight visibility and performance through cutting-edge fiber-optic and tritium-based systems.

Throughout its history the firm has introduced groundbreaking products that have become industry benchmarks. Many are ideal for hunting.  

The M-Series Magnetic Shotgun Sight, for example, revolutionized ease of installation and adaptability for shotgun users. The award-winning TriViz Sight introduced a unique triangular design tailored for turkey and deer hunters. Magni-Optics technology made alignment easier helping cross-eye dominant shotgun shooters stay on target. Most recently, the FastDot H3 bridged the gap between iron sights and red dots, helping simplify sight alignment with a reliable sight that is bright, easy to acquire and fast.

“HIVIZ has always been driven by a singular mission: To help shooters see better, shoot better and perform at their highest level,” said Phil Howe, founder of HIVIZ Shooting Systems. “Reaching 30 years is not just a milestone, it’s a testament to the trust our customers and partners place in us, and to the passion our team brings to innovation every day.”

At the core of HIVIZ’s success is its proprietary interchangeable LitePipe technology, which allows users to quickly adapt their sight picture to changing light conditions and environments. The unique molded LitePipes enable users to remove, replace and reuse them, literally customizing their setup anytime, anywhere.

In addition to a robust line of branded aftermarket products, the company has earned a reputation as a trusted manufacturing partner for many of the most respected names in the firearm industry. The firm proudly collaborates on parts production and sight solutions with brands including Benelli, Browning, FN America, Henry Repeating Arms, KelTec, Kimber, Marlin, Mossberg, Remington, Rossi, Ruger, Savage, Smith & Wesson and Taurus.

HIVIZ remains committed to advancing sight technology through continued research, precision manufacturing and customer-focused design. With new innovations already on the horizon, the company will continue to build on its legacy and help shape the next generation of hunting and shooting performance.
