The Recon Sight (originally known as the R3CON Sight) is an optical attachment in Call of Duty: Black Ops III and Call of Duty: Black Ops 4.
Call of Duty: Black Ops III[]
- "Enhanced zoom sight."
- — Description
The Recon Sight is an enhanced zoom sight, offering a high zoom level similar to the ACOG Scope of past games.
It also increases weapon centerspeed by 5% and reduces idle sway by 90%. Due to this, the Recon sight is a powerful attachment on weapons with low centerspeed (weapons that don't return to the original viewpoint after firing quickly) or high idle sway, such as the Gorgon and the KN-44.
The Recon Sight is available for assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs, and sniper rifles. The Recon Sight can be steadied when used with a sniper rifle.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4[]
- "Magnification Optic. Press <key> while aiming down the sight to switch between 2.0x and 4.0x zoom levels."
- — Description
The attachment returns in Black Ops 4, simply referred to as Recon. Unlike its Black Ops 3 counterpart, the Recon in Black Ops 4 now as a variable zoom option, switching between 2.0x and 4.0x, functioning similarly to the Hybrid Sight from previous games.
