The C79 Optical Sight is a small arms telescopic sight of 3.4×28 magnification. It is manufactured by Elcan and can be found on military service weapons around the world. Its Elcan product name is the Specter M145, although in Canadian service, it is typically referred to as the C79 or the C79A2. Similar rifle sights are the Sight Unit Small Arms, Trilux (SUSAT) and the Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight (ACOG).
