Trijicon MRO

Post by WLJ » Wed Aug 12, 2015 9:19 am

If they maintain the point point and the quality is up there could put a dent in Aimpoint and Eotech now that this along with the Meprolight RDS Truedot are out. We'll see.

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

That's a winner if they are as tough as an ACOG

I don't see me ditching my Aimpoint for this, but it's always good to add competition. If I were in the market for an optic it would definitely be on the list

I'd be willing to try it for the right price. I have a Eotech, Aimpoint, and a ACOG and I have to say I much prefer the cross hairs of the ACOG to red dots. Especially like now when my allergies are bothering me. The red dots are a little blurry when the cross hairs aren't.

We shall see, I'm not seeing anything that would convince me to switch from my Aimpoint T-1/T-2s.

It's good for the market. It makes the other guys lower their price or make something better. Nothing like competition to fuel innovation.

According to Grant Timberlake (G&R Tactical):
The MSRP is 579 USD
It has it's own proprietary mounting footprint
Suppose to be on shelves by the end of the month
I'm not sure where exactly it fits in the shooting world, or why Trijicon felt the need for it to exist, but more options in quality optics can't be bad. Right now the second generation Aimpoint micros are king, and this appears to fall just a little bit short of those.

I won't switch from my Aimpoint Micro, or my ACOG, or my Leupold 1-6x.

But I still have a few AR's that need optics to try.

well trijicon maintains its disappointing array of grossly over priced optics, way to innovate! They hav not been at the top of there game sense like 2000.
