Trijicon HRS vs regular RM06

[RAM Engineer]

Is the only difference between the HRS version of the RM06 and the regular ones the finish process (Cerakote vs Hard Anodized) and the markings/SN?

I ASSume the black RM06 is hard anodized, like the HRS, so if I were to buy a black one I would just be giving up the markings/SN? I don't NEED a flat dark earth optic, so if there would be a savings there, I'm all for it.

Finally, has anyone bought an RM06 from Amazon? I'm leery of counterfeits from there on certain items.

weren't the cerakoted ones prone to having the emitter cover fall off?

Trijicon makes other variants with Cerakote, but the HRS and black versions are hard-anodized.

If you don't care about the markings or the color, black is the way to go.

I wouldn't trust Amazon for that sort of thing. Both of my RMRs came from EuroOptic and they have treated me VERY well.

I had that happen twice with a standard RMR2, so I don't think the cerakote makes a difference.

Some folks claimed they were.

Amazon has one distinct advantage — a no hassle money back return for 30 days. Thirty days to a red dot is like a multiple of dog years — say two years for a regular scope.

It's my understanding that the problem with Amazon is counterfeit items. Even if you buy from Amazon themselves, due to how their warehouses handle the SKUs, third party stock that also uses Amazon warehouses and the Amazon marketplace will be mixed with Amazon's own stock (the Fulfilled By Amazon sellers), if the third party claims to be selling an identical item as Amazon. So, if you know what to look for on a counterfeit, no big deal, use the returns system like you've suggested, but if you're not sure, you could easily be getting a ChiCom copy that a third party seller had marked as a genuine product, and thus it gets inserted into the stock as the genuine ones that Amazon had procured.

This ^^^ also applies to things like tourniquets.

Has anyone received a counterfeit RMR or DP Pro from Amazon?

Purchased multiple RMRs on Amazon and never had any issues.
