The Wilcox Rapid Acquisition Aiming Module - Grenadier Sighting System (RAAM-GSS) is a lightweight fire control system that features a built-in ballistic computer that provides a shooting solution for distances selected by the grenadier.
The RAAM-GSS addresses the capability gap within the forces that increase hit probability to effectively engage targets during the day or at night. The RAAM-GSS is designed for mounting to any Picatinny Rail interface affixed to any assault weapon or a stand alone Grenade Launcher.
The Wilcox RAAM GSS™ is an exportable version of the US Army selected and current production Grenadier Sighting System (NSN: 1010-01-686-8798). It has proven to increase hit probability by significantly enhancing daytime and nighttime grenadier accuracy, while simultaneously decreasing target engagement time. With this unsurpassed performance, the ergonomic design incorporates many ease-of-use features. The RAAM GSS is designed for ambidextrous, left or right hand, mounting to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny side rail interface affixed to assault weapon (s) or a standalone man portable Grenade Launcher.
It incorporates features for the quickest and easiest boresighting to the Grenade Launcher for simplicity and maintaining high accuracy, day and night. The RAAM GSS is a lightweight fire control system (FCS) that features a built-in ballistic computer that provides a shooting solution for the target distance selected by the grenadier. The user simply selects the grenade ammunition type from the stored ballistic solutions from the RAAM GSS menu or preprogrammed 2 position switch quick ammunition selector; this tailors the point of aim and point of impact for the selected ammunition. Rotating the RAAM GSS sets the angle aiming references and corresponding target distance is displayed for the selected ammunition.
The RAAM GSS features an environmentally stable optical bench with integral reflex sight (with back-up iron sight) for daytime use as well as near infrared (NIR) aiming laser and NIR illuminator for use in conjunction with night vision goggles.

Wilcox
In 1993, Wilcox was awarded their first patent with the development of the first laser aiming device integrated into a handgun. In 1996, Wilcox responded to a call from the Special Operations Community in search of a solution to effectively mount night vision systems. Working closely with the operators, the three-hole shroud was born and a “systems approach” to night vision device mounting solutions was formally initiated. This continues today with our next generation Enhanced Night Vision Goggle (ENVG) and other mounting solutions. To date, Wilcox has been awarded over 83 patents with 69 pending. Wilcox has evolved into an agile, highly diversified global company offering over 260 products with a customer base in 28 countries worldwide.
