Leupold Launches the LCO Pro F2 Carbine Red Dot at $900

July 17, 2026

Leupold has released the LCO Pro F2, a $900 carbine red dot built around a large viewing window and four switchable reticles. For AR owners shopping for a serious optic, Gun Digest has already had range time with it and came away impressed.

The short version

Gun Digest reports that Leupold, known mainly for rifle scopes and its DeltaPoint Pro pistol optic, has launched the LCO Pro F2 as a carbine-focused red dot. The main selling point is a large window with an aspheric lens that the outlet describes as clear and distortion-free from edge to edge. Shooters can switch among four reticles: a 1-MOA dot, a dot with compass points, a dot inside a 65-MOA ring, and a dot with both the ring and compass points.

Brightness runs across 20 daylight and 10 night vision settings, with a protected button for night vision mode and a dial that cycles through every daylight setting in a half turn. Motion sensing preserves battery life, and the housing is machined from a single piece of aluminum and rated waterproof, fogproof and shockproof. The writer used it at a Leupold and Hornady carbine event in June, praised the glass and reticle, and says a full review is coming.

Key points

  • Price: The LCO Pro F2 costs $900 and comes in black or FDE.
  • Reticles: Four selectable patterns built on a 1-MOA dot, two of them with a 65-MOA ring.
  • Brightness: Twenty daylight and 10 night vision settings, cycled by a quick-spin dial.
  • Battery saving: Motion Sensor Technology is used to stretch battery life.
  • Build: A one-piece machined aluminum housing rated waterproof, fogproof and shockproof.
  • Early impressions: Gun Digest's writer ran it through a training class and mini competition and was impressed.

Bottom line

The LCO Pro F2 gives carbine shooters a large-window dot with night vision settings and selectable reticles at a premium price. It is aimed at AR owners who want one optic for day and night use, and Gun Digest says its full review is on the way.
