Konus has announced the expansion of its thermal optics lineup with two innovative additions to the Fiery series. The company introduces the versatile Fiery RF and the traditional-format Fiery R, both designed to meet the evolving needs of hunters and tactical shooters seeking advanced thermal imaging capabilities.
Fiery RF: Revolutionary 3-in-1 Thermal System
Multi-Purpose Design and Functionality
The Fiery RF represents a breakthrough in thermal optic versatility, serving as a handheld thermal monocular, dedicated riflescope, or clip-on thermal attachment. This innovative 3-in-1 configuration allows users to seamlessly transition between observation and shooting applications without requiring additional equipment changes.
The device features dual mounting options for maximum adaptability. Users can secure it to Picatinny rails using the included heavy-duty mounting system, or attach it directly to existing traditional optics with objective lenses measuring 44-56mm in diameter.
Advanced Performance Specifications
The Fiery RF delivers exceptional detection capabilities with thermal imaging reaching out to 2,750 yards. The integrated laser rangefinder provides precise distance measurements up to 880 yards, ensuring accurate shot placement at extended ranges.
Operational features include six distinct reticle patterns and multiple color palette options, allowing users to customize their viewing experience for various environmental conditions. The unit incorporates photo and video recording capabilities, enabling documentation of hunts or training exercises.
Durability and Environmental Resistance
Built for demanding field conditions, the Fiery RF features a waterproof construction and rechargeable power system. The optic maintains reliable performance across extreme temperature ranges and withstands the rigors of intensive field use.
Fiery R: Traditional Format with Modern Technology
Familiar Design with Advanced Capabilities
The Fiery R adopts a conventional 30mm tube riflescope profile while incorporating comprehensive thermal imaging technology. This design approach appeals to shooters who prefer the familiar feel and mounting characteristics of traditional rifle optics.
Optical Performance and Features
The Fiery R provides digital zoom capabilities ranging from 3.4x to 13.6x magnification, offering flexibility for various shooting scenarios. The system includes ten reticle pattern options and eight color selections, plus a specialized ballistic reticle function for enhanced accuracy.
Robust Construction Standards
Engineered for heavy-duty applications, the Fiery R features complete waterproof and shockproof construction. The optic is rated to withstand recoil forces up to 6,000 joules, making it suitable for use on large-caliber firearms and magnum cartridges.
Shared Technical Specifications
Both thermal riflescopes maintain operational reliability across extreme temperature ranges from -22°F to 122°F. Each model includes integrated video and photo recording functionality, providing users with the ability to document their experiences in the field.
Company Information and Warranty Coverage
All KonusPro riflescopes are protected under the company's Lifetime Replacement Warranty program. Konus operates from its global headquarters in Verona, Italy, with North American operations based in Medley, Florida.
Pricing and Availability
The Fiery RF is available at a retail price of $2,154.99, while the Fiery R carries a suggested retail price of $2,584.99. Both models are now available through authorized Konus dealers and distributors.
