Quick answer

Combat Sights are standardized rail-mounted red dot optics in DayZ. They are non-magnifying 1x sights designed for close-range and medium-close aiming on compatible western and rail-mounted weapons. They fit the SG5-K, USG-45, M4-A1, Pioneer, SVAL, LAR, DMR, and R12. Combat Sights require a 9V Battery, consume 0.02 energy per second, and do not provide a dispersion reduction bonus. Their main advantage is a cleaner sight picture and wider field of view than many iron sights. They take 2 inventory slots, weigh 265 g, have 0 absorbency, and spawn in military loot locations as a rare optic.
