The Steiner DBAL-A3 Class 1/3R Civilian is engineered for professional-grade performance in a compact and rugged housing. Based on the standard-issue DBAL-A3 used by U.S. and NATO military units, this model gives law-abiding civilian users access to advanced infrared and laser technology trusted around the world.
Designed for extreme accuracy in low-light and no-light operations, the DBAL-A3 combines a visible green laser, eye-safe IR laser pointer, and a defocused adjustable IR illuminator in one unit. The IR illuminator technology allows users to transition seamlessly between close-quarters and mid-range target acquisition without changing equipment, making it highly effective for tactical shooting, night operations, and hog or coyote hunting with night vision.
Built from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with a MIL-SPEC Type III hardcoat anodized finish, the DBAL-A3 withstands harsh use and environmental abuse. It attaches securely to any standard Picatinny rail via Steiner’s patented self-adjusting Quick Release HT Mount, ensuring a rock-solid zero even under recoil. The direct diode green laser offers cold-weather reliability down to −20°C, making it a dependable aiming solution year-round.
The DBAL-A3 includes dual remote cable ports for visible override and remote fire functionality, along with high/low power modes and a single tap activation switch offering momentary or continuous operation. An onboard activation and low battery indicator light ensures full control during critical moments.
Available in Black (Item No. 9008) and Desert Sand (Item No. 9009), the DBAL-A3 delivers elite capability in a compact, 7.7 oz package.
