Just joined the club. I had to install the rear sight backwards so it fits with the optic, but I was thinking about blacked out rear sights anyhow.

Holy smokes that looks like an sro with an rmr style housing and some of the features people complain about wanting. As long as the dot/circle dot is selectable it could be a winner.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By November5: Originally Posted By Rudukai13: Re: circle dot reticle - I would be willing to bet just about anything you can turn the circle part off like you can with Holosun Remarkably fair point. It looks like it’s basically a SRO with the owl-ear hood design, so I can’t imagine it’s a different footprint/bolt pattern. Though they were stupid enough to go with a proprietary footprint for the last-to-market RMRcc, so again - it’s Trijicon, don’t get your hopes up |
