Another new pistol Red dot.. Trijicon SRO

[Edwardteach72]

I will second @MilesTeg What may look like "bulk" is almost unnoticeable, especially when it is holstered and carried.

Only time it seems to be noticed is in the beginning when learning to draw and present because we as humans will want to look at the thing sitting on our slide. But once it becomes second nature and learned to almost ignore the optic itself it will seem no different than regular sights

Been following this at AR15.com .. I wish I didn't have astigmatism (though with glasses the dot is mostly fine); wonder why they didn't go for green like their new MRO?

I have a Vortex Venom on my S&W 22 Victory, been wanting to get a full-size handgun with optic for a while... How well would this work on a rifle also? (.22 or 5.56)

I believe the issue with green dots is it drains the batteries at a much faster rate than res

I'm guessing this would be sweet on a rifle.

The original RMR was designed for rifle use (specifically to be paired with a Trijicon Acog) but someone got froggy and thought you know what I bet I can fit this on a glock slide and make it work. And that's how the RMR ended up on handguns.

Green does require more energy. I have a green lazer I use with my telescope for aiming seems it will trace a green line through the atmosphere, and when I use it a lot it drains the battery pretty quick. My red lazer, same identical unit other than color I use for other things, will last twice as long.

On another note, I'd love to try one of these kinds of optics on my Walther if the prices ever come down to poverty level lol.

What type of walther. A more reasonably priced optic that has been getting really favorable reviews is the new Holosun 507c

I forgot about the offering from Holosun. I have one of their optics on my AR and really like it. They've always had really good reviews.

I'll look around there may be a dovetail mounting plate (not the best option but it's also not permanent)
