In a rare move that blends battlefield-grade technology with real-world shooter accessibility, Magpul and Maztech Industries have joined forces on a project that’s quietly redefining what it means to make a first-round impact. Their collaboration—the X4 Fire Control Ecosystem—brings together advanced sensor technology, laser precision, and robust ballistics computation into a streamlined suite that talks to itself in real-time.
The heart of this system is built on two flagship components: the X4-LRF (Laser Rangefinder) and the X4-FCS (Fire Control System). Each can stand on its own, but the real magic happens when they’re paired. Together, they offer an end-to-end targeting solution that feels more fighter jet than foot patrol.
X4-LRF: The Laser Rangefinder, Reimagined
At the heart of Maztech’s long-range engagement strategy lies the X4-LRF—offered in two configurations to suit the needs of both military-grade precision shooters and civilian users alike. Whether you’re running the full-throttle X4-LRF-15K, capable of ranging out to 15 kilometers, or the more compact and budget-conscious X4-LRF-2K, both models come packed with the same battle-ready DNA.
Key Features
• Co-Aligned Aiming Lasers: Infrared and visible lasers work in unison with the ranging beam, ensuring intuitive target acquisition regardless of light or environmental conditions.
• Built-In Applied Ballistics Solver: No guesswork. Real-time ballistic solutions that account for temperature, humidity, pressure, pitch, roll, and heading—all pulled from onboard sensors.
• Military-Grade Stealth: The 1534 nm laser used in the X4-LRF-15K is undetectable to night-vision devices, making it ideal for low-signature operations.
• Best-in-Class Sensitivity: Thanks to a low-noise Avalanche Photodiode photoreceiver and factory-calibrated bias temperature compensation, targets as small as a human silhouette can be reliably ranged at 3 kilometers—and vehicles or larger objects beyond 9 miles.


Weighing just under 13 ounces, the unit mounts to any standard Picatinny rail or can be used standalone with built-in iron sights. A large, OLED display provides clean, polarized-glasses-friendly visuals, and the system is navigated via an intuitive three-button interface or a low-profile remote switch. With a fully ruggedized aluminum chassis and waterproofing up to three feet, the X4-LRF is designed to go wherever the shot takes you.
X4-FCS: Turning Glass Into Smart Optics

Now, range data is great—but converting that information into an accurate point of impact is what separates gear from systems. Enter the Maztech X4-FCS (Fire Control System). This smart mount turns your standard 30mm LPVO into a guided fire-control solution by overlaying a live ballistic aimpoint directly in your sight picture.
Core Capabilities
• Live Ballistic Offset: The FCS uses your chosen ammo’s profile along with real-time environmental and motion data to generate an offset aimpoint, visible in a bright-green, sun-readable overlay inside your optic.
• No Battery? No Problem. Even if the FCS powers down, your optic remains zeroed and fully usable—because it doesn’t replace your reticle; it enhances it.
• Custom Display Layouts: The interface is shooter-defined. You choose where and how your data appears, right down to individual screen elements.
• App Integration Optional: While pairing with the Maztech Companion App gives you quick access to the Applied Ballistics cloud database and setup wizard, all configurations can also be managed directly on the unit—no phone required.
With a tough-as-nails 7075-T6 aluminum housing, dual rechargeable USB-C 18650 batteries, and a year’s worth of runtime at standard use rates, the FCS is as durable as it is smart. Waterproof to 3 feet and rated for extreme temperatures, it’s built for both arctic and arid extremes.
When Paired: A Complete Fire Control Ecosystem
What truly sets this system apart is how these two components—LRF and FCS—communicate. With the optional X4 FCS-to-LRF cable, the devices work in tandem to deliver a seamless, real-time solution from target detection to firing solution overlay. One click, and your display updates with exact range and a dynamically adjusted aimpoint. No mental math. No holdovers. Just center and send.
Why it Matters
• First-round hits at extended distances
• Faster follow-ups with consistent impact data
• Adaptable profiles for different weapons or ammunition types (up to 30 saved)
Whether you’re running a suppressed 6.5 Creedmoor gas gun or dialing in a bolt-action .308 for precision work, the Maztech system flexes to fit.
Pricing & Availability
As of this writing, the X4-LRF (MSRP: $2,195) is currently sold out through official Magpul channels. The X4-FCS retails for $3,495, with the complete pairing setting users back $5,690 before accessories or tax. While that’s no small sum, what you’re buying isn’t just equipment—it’s confidence at distance.
Final Thoughts
Maztech isn’t dabbling in smart optics—they’re defining them. The X4 ecosystem doesn’t try to reinvent shooting; it makes your current glass smarter, your data richer, and your engagements faster. For precision shooters who want uncompromising data at the moment of truth, this is the future. And it’s already here.
