7.0 MOA may be the most recommended dual-illuminated Trijicon RMR, however, the dual-illuminated model is probably the least recommended Trijicon RMR model.  The debate is normally between a 3.25 and 6.5 MOA Trijicon type 2 adjustable LED RMR.

Right, but we weren't talking about the adjustable rmr.

Just needs RSA, sealing plate, and ammo through it. May do some trigger work too...

EDIT: and sights installed. I have them, just not a pusher

I just did a bunch of reading and research on BUIS. If you want low sights Dawson is a great route.

Dawson Precision is another option and you can get them as low as your optic allows. My convo with Dawson is below. I went with a .335 tall rear and a .330 front which is as low as you can use the whole rear notch. I like it a lot.


From: Dawson Sales

Yes, that is correct. .010 is like a few sheets of paper between your fingers.

Hey Dawson Friends, I'm looking at purchasing the lowest usable iron sights I can for use as backups with my RMR on a 19 MOS. I found on a couple forums you had recommended to:

Measure from top of slide to bottom of optic window (for me this is .245")
Add .100 to allow for use of the full rear sight notch

So for me that would be a .345 rear sight, the closest stock offering you have is .335. So I'd just be losing .010 of usable rear notch correct? That isn't a deal killer for me, mainly just concerned sights will clear the optic and are usable. Some Modern Samurai Project students have mentioned using the .335 as well with success. Am I on the right track here?

Thanks a bunch!

Indeed. It's nice and a really tight fit for the optic. Haven't shot it yet but it looks and feels nice.

Now that mine is together I realized how much it needs some trigger work....

Range trip #3: success! Sort of.

I'm still more accurate with iron sights. Of course, it didn't help that I had coffee before I went... No problem picking up the dot though.

And, I did a thing.



And after I shit in some poor guy's VP9 thread in GD too.  I am so sorry, whoever you were.

Had some interesting results. The VP9 is quite a bit more accurate from a rest, but the G45 is more accurate (for me) standing unsupported. I suppose it could be just because I have so much more experience with GLOCK. I gotta say though, after giving the VP9 another chance, I am really liking this one. Trigger is great, very comfortable in the hand (except for that gigantic shelf at the back that digs into my previously inured thumb joint.)

Remains to be seen whether I will stick with the RMR or go back to irons.

Considering putting a dot on my FNX45T.

Currently looking at regular 507, 507 Vulcan acss, and the 508t.

This will be my first dot on a handgun and the reticle system of the holosun seems like it will help learning to pick up the dot.

If I really like it I’ll probably move up to an RMR and move the holosun to something else.

I recently did that. I prefer my red dots to be red dots rather than some sort of reticle because I have quite a few Aimpoints. The nice thing about the FNX is that the sights are tall enough to cowitness, so while it takes some time to get used to using the dot, the sights help ease you into getting a consistent presentation with the dot. You will notice movement with the RMR that you didn't with the iron sights.

Also, the fact you are looking at the front sight through the RMR lens does not degrade your ability to see the dot when it is dark and the RMR is off so you still have 100% use of irons if your battery dies or something. I was concerned about that because I remembered the RMR on the SDO I was issued having a much bluer tint than the one on my FNX does.

Their ALS system is over-molded so it should fit most lights. My holster fits an X300U, X300V, and TLR-1.

They will not fit the larger lights with laser modules like the X400 or TLR-IR. Safariland might make a different version of those models that does, I'm not sure.

Posted over on the Beretta subforum, but came here to say that the future is definitely now.  This is my first RDO handgun and it certainly won't be the last.  Only put 50 rounds through it today, but it felt so much easier to shoot.  My groups were the same as they normally are (all shots in a 5" ring at 15 yards, not great but not terrible).  What impressed me was the speed.  I was shooting a lot faster than I normally do (damn near mag dumping it).  Prior to buying the LTT RDO slide, I had only put 4 rounds through my friend's RDO 365 XL.  I watched all of the Sage Dynamics videos on RDO shooting and practiced my presentation at home (bring the back of the slide in-line with my nose like he suggests).

WTF are you talking about? Most negative reviews are from armchair commandos or the RMR Gastapo . While I agree the RMR is a more rugged optic, and I have 2 on Sigs (gasp) I have run thousands, yes, thousands of rounds through my M17 with my  DPP’s and never, I repeat, never (for the deaf or ignorant armchair commandos) had a problem with mine holding up to the abuse of “combat” shooting.
I have 2 x DPPs and when it comes to speed and target acquisition, the DPP wins “for me” every time.  

And BTW, why the hell would you want to disable the shake awake? That’s just silly.

Stop drinking the stupid kool aide and be real brother.

Not really.  The slide was super tight when I first got it.  I lubed it up and racked it a few dozen times.  After that it's as smooth as the factory slide.

I'm referring to feedback from USPSA shooters who fire more rounds in a month than many do in 5 years.  It seems there they have a failure rate just as bad as the Romeo/Vortex junk.

And I'd like to disable it because it is a gimmick for low-information buyers who like chinesium junk.  It seems many say they attribute it to the lower battery life as well.  I'd rather just leave it on all the time and change the battery annually.

I spend a lot of time on a uspsa forum and there is a ton of issues with the dpp. Leupold recently changed the board in the dpp's, maybe it fixed them or maybe it didn't. I can get a pretty good discount on the dpp's and I don't bother. If I wasn't using trijicons then I might or just try the holosuns. Trijicon's price truly sucks but their failure rate is heck of lot better when shooting tons of rounds. For a non comp gun then the dpp or holosun would be fine.

Leupold is 100% US made as is Trijicon. So not sure what that DA comment is about. Shake awake is NOT a gimmick it is technology Grandpa so get used to it. (I am saying that with jest as I am a 51 year old with 31 years of Army service and experience as a competitive shooter) . So stop reading bullshit online and buy shit that works. Just because Trijicon has the upper hand on durability does not make it “the best”. The Best in my opinion, balances durability with a shit load of other features. All optics have +’s and -‘s, pic what works best for you. Dogging on other optics because it makes you feel better is childish BS. I trust Leupold with my life as I have for more than 20 years and 2 combat tours in Iraq with Leupold gracing my rifles.

Leupold is 100% US made as is Trijicon. So not sure what that DA comment is about. Shake awake is NOT a gimmick it is technology Grandpa so get used to it. (I am saying that with jest as I am a 51 year old with 31 years of Army service and experience as a competitive shooter) . So stop reading bullshit online and buy shit that works. Just because Trijicon has the upper hand on durability does not make it “the best”. The Best in my opinion, balances durability with a shit load of other features. All optics have +’s and -‘s, pic what works best for you. Dogging on other optics because it makes you feel better is childish BS. I trust Leupold with my life as I have for more than 20 years and 2 combat tours in Iraq with Leupold gracing my rifles.
Just say’n sport.

I think its a great optic.  My partner has one on his competition gun and I love the amber triangle reticle on his.  The big window is also super nice and wish more companies did it.  

I went Trijicon partly because of the drop testing on Sage Dynamics.  Aaron seems like a fair guy and he just says they don't hold up.  I personally am known in my group of friends who are also shooters to have the worst luck.  

My mantra is "it could be raining ten lb. pussies and I would get hit in the head with a 10 lb. dick."  It was funny for awhile but now my friends legit feel bad for me because they know I am not a dumbass but if there is some stupid bad thing to happen to a person it usually lands on me.  

I would get a DPP and just bump in to a wall or throw it on a bed or something taking off my gear and shatter in to pieces and the battery catch on fire.  No...really.  

I hope what somebody said is true and Leupold is working on it to improve it. I will be the first in line to buy one if true and it is proven.

I thought a revision supposedly already took place?

It may have. I don't follow the DPP.

Ok so I picked up a PPQ so I can try this RDS thing out. I get a free base from Walther, but not sure what to go with:

DOCTOR
TRIJICON RMR, SRO & HOLOSUN 407C,507C & 508T, Riton X3 PRD
LEUPOLD DELTA POINT PRO, SHIELD RMS
VORTEX VIPER

I see a lot of discussion about DPP and RMR, what about Doctor? Seems like they've been doing this far longer than Trijicon or Leupold.
