Trijicon RMR Sight Adjustable (LED, 3.25 MOA Red Dot)


Great option
I bought this red dot sight to quickly engage targets at close range which is the only real weakness of the Trijicon ACOG. While the RMR could be used as a stand alone sight on a rifle it seems to be at it's best when paired with an ACOG scope either directly mounted on top of it or mounted on a 45 degree offset mount. I've shot the RMR out to 100yds but further distances may become more difficult as the red dot starts to obscure distant targets. The RMR is also versatile as it can be mounted directly to some pistols with no gunsmithing required and other models can be modified to accept the RMR with a qualified gunsmiths assistance. Installation was easy when mounted to the proper mounting bracket which are specific to the ACOG model, picatinny rail adapter, or pistol. I think when used in conjunction with a magnified optic or on a pistol; the RMR is a great sight. If you want to use this as a primary sight on a rifle, I think there are better red dot sight options from Aimpoint and...
Perfect
Just the perfect size for the pistol. I mounted this on a FNX 45 Tactical and couldn't be happier. I highly recommend this for home defense in conjunction with raised suppressor sights (for co-witness) and a laser/light combo. (just in case the battery runs low, or for some reason you can't find the red dot)

This thing is built like a tank. It is never going to break. It can also be used as a ledge to do emergency rack of slide in case your other hand is doing something else. My only concern is that the glass window gets dirty very easily... and in poor backlight conditions that blocks the view and fuzzies out the red dot and even blockes the front sight... so you are SOL in that situation if you don't have a laser mount.

It definitely makes it easier being able to shoot with both eyes wide open, and not having to worry about aligning the front sight with rear sights... I would say the true benefit from this is fast target acquisition while in motion... when you...
Trijicon RMR 3.25 MOA Red dot
Very good quality.
I have other much cheaper Red Dots, but this one is by far the best.
The lifetime warranty is what allowed me to justify using a more expensive Red Dot like the Trijicon.

Mounting was easy with the Glock RMR pistol mount.

The sight/mount has held its zero for more than 1500 rounds on a Glock 19.
