The main reason to buy the RMR is because of its durability and the fact that it just works. I've seen them hold zero when taking it off to swap batteries or put it on another gun. I've seen them hold zero while having a cracked lens. With that sort of tankiness I feel it can work past any of the issues people may have with it. It really is one of the best pistol dots in the game because I can't think of any others that can stand up to that sort of abuse.

Someone get this man a RMR HD

Yeah, it's definitely a low value proposition in this day and age. I don't regret buying the ones I have, but I'm not interested in buying any more of them.

RMR HD is the answer. Some people still say it’s behind the times because it doesn’t have shake awake or solar failsafe. Sure, I guess solar failsafe in particular would be nice, but Trijicon has engineering figured out. If that one feature decreases durability it isn’t worth it. LE and MIL don’t have an issue with batteries, and that’s what it’s designed for. Top loading battery, sufficiently sized window, durable and dependable… a little higher actual street price than RMR type 2…. Just get the HD moving forward.

Adore my rmr! Been on my carry for 5 years now. It’s amazing! Looking at getting another one day for my ultimate AR build (block 2 upper with nightforce nx8 2.5-20 f1 mil-c, in a badger comm 1.54 mount). I dislike the removal of the optic for battery change but never needed to actually resight it in when I confirm zero

Loved this vid....very informative....thank you

I'm a big fan of Deltathirtyfour, the ACOG, and the RMR. I'd love to see you review the 1-8x Credo. I haven't seen anyone really review one in depth since their scopes went to the credo line. Eventually I'll snag their new pistol dots. I already have some RMR and SROs. I put the RMR on carry guns and the sro on competition guns. Still nothing comes close to the rmr's durability.

Thanks for this video. Very informative.

How do you get such good camera angles that align with what you’re seeing? Phenomenal. Nobody else does optics reviews even close. Thanks!

Can’t wait to see the new rmr hd.

@C_DOES Another great video! I EDC'd a G19.4 with gen1 RMR06/Battlewerks sealing plate for years and never had any trouble or difficulty. I moved to a G17.5 with irons over a year ago, but have been shooting friends guns with various red dots. I pulled the G19 out of the safe recently, and was quite shocked at how dated the RMR is... If you were going to mill a non MOS Gen 5 G17 for EDC what is the first enclosed optic you would choose?

It’s come to the point where I have to watch C Does before buying anything nowadays

I have an older RMR, but with their new RCR enclosed optic and new RMR both having better access, I will be replacing it ASAP with the RCR

Great review! I am looking at mounting a red dot (or green) on my M1A. The RMR distortion would bother me. Any recomendations for a 2-3.25 MOA Red or Green dot for my application?

Trijicon RMR and ACOG products are cash cows for the company. They are both excellent products but no longer deserve the money they are asking for them considering their outdated design.

I think the Acog 4x is still respectable for what it is for what they go for. They're ever so slowly rolling out models that's more in line with the civilian demands (ex. the TA02) but otherwise are still fine as they are for the price. I've looked through my fair share of fixed magnification prism optics within the "economy" spectrum and they leave things to be desired, the retention never held and always sent them to new homes. You're not going to really find anything with as clear of glass, huge FOV that competes with 3x budget prism optics except it's a 4x, more light transmission thanks to the larger objective lens, and not overly heavy. The RMR however, yeah it's fallen behind compared to market competitors for pistol red dots.

My understanding is the patent is on the ability of the button to be pressed anywhere, not just the center. i.e. it's the size and ability of the buttons, not the placement.

Shot irons for the entire time I was in the Marines, 9 years later I get an RMR and noticed the difference immediately. Its increase in accuracy with less the effort is worth the purchase alone. It’s a tank of a red dot.

With my astigmatism there's no red dot on the market that's got a worse dot than the RMR(ACRO is a close second). I see a more than a quarter inch wide clutch of grapes.

Glock never innovates, Trijicon never innovates, etc etc. But some items just plain WORK. And so we can complain all we want, but if your life depends on it, you grab your Glock with the RMR and go. There's range toys, and then there are tools. Simple choice.

Hi Unrelated... Which is the better LPVO between the Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6x24 vs the Primary Arms Slx 1-6 Gen IV?

C has gone from airsoft to ccw Is this bruien in action?

As annoying as the RMR's problems are, they all are irrelevant to me because for me, durability is above all else for red dots :v Plus, the correct way to run a red dot is to put tape on the front and shoot occluded with the Bindon Aiming Concept, because then you can run the red dot at less brightness, and save battery life. It also helps protect the lens and front body of the optic from scratching or breaking with enough thicc tape on top.

The RMR a paradox. It’s not the best in class, it’s not the most affordable, it not the most durable. But they are what a lot of us used to learn about red dots. They are the OG and that will keep them popular. And the reason I still use them is I’ve never broke one and I don’t like change.

Heavily blue tinted glass and no reticle choices make it very subpar considering it's meager offerings in contrast to the competition especially for the price point.

Blue tint helps battery life, and are you shooting with one eye closed like this is 2004? If you are target focused it shouldn’t matter, always seemed like a mute point given it has advantages.

@@vilecreature8640 here we go... low tint helps in low light and general overall visibility through the window, dot sights already have insane battery life (years) so the difference if any, is negligible. You don't always want to be "target focused" depending on the kind of shot you need to make. The focal plane on a RDS isn't infinite like a holographic so you'll want to focus through the window/reticle itself so it's not blurry when you superimpose on your target for a precision/distance shot. The ability to have circle dot reticle is nice for holdovers at distance and height over bore compensation up close. Green LED's are also very nice and tend to pop better in bright environments for a given brightness than red will. Sure, trijicon could incorporate all the above if they wanted to, but they don't. If they did maybe i'd buy one but for now i'll stick with the innovative "junk" made by chinese child slave labor. Maybe Trijicon is slightly more reliable and durable, but I honestly couldn't care less, if a dot fails i'll just use irons, red dots are just a luxury and shouldn't take place of fundamentals.

Honestly I would buy one if the tint and distortion wasnt soo horrid. Honestly theres soo many things that would make this optic better and the rmr hd addresses a couple of those things as well as adresses problems that arent really problems not to mention its one of the ugliest pistol optics on the market. Honestly if they put new glass in it and got rid of the tint I gaurentee it would sell out in an hour or two and I would happily buy one.

For nv use the 1 DPP 2 SRO

Ugh way too much blue tint. After using EOTech I'm spoiled for crystal clear glass.

Single soul? I’ve have had a type 1 mounted on an ultralight (4lbs 5oz) 10.5 for like 6 years now. It’s arguably my favorite weapon. I can hit a 6 inch plate at 100 yards standing all day long, what more could you ask for? The blue tint is a notch filter, that’s how you get 4-5 years of battery life. I also have one mounted on a pistol, which I can also hit a torso sized metal plate at 100 yards with. I have developed an astigmatism now in my 50s, so the dot is no longer perfectly round, but that hasn’t changed the effectiveness of either tool.

The lack of innovation is the part that hangs me up on buying an RMR. I’ve moved to not buy foreign when there’s an American product. And the aftermarket support for the RMR is why I’m holding out.
