I've avoided buying my own pistol optic thus far. I've mounted a few for people, have shot a few, but never messed with buying one of my own. One of our neighboring agencies is now issuing Trijicon RMR's on all their Glock MOS pistols and there are at least a dozen folks at my own department running RMR's. As an instructor and armorer I think I need to get get one to play with.
I have an astigmatism that makes red dots turn into blurry 8's, especially when the brightness increases. I've had an old Aimpoint CompM2 on my M4 at work and I make it work, but it's never been ideal. I'm thinking a larger dot at lower brightness will be helpful.
I think I'm going to go for the
RMR Type 2 6.5 MOA adjustable (RM07-C-700679).
Does that model make sense?
I have a Glock 22 Gen3 (the first Glock I ever purchased) sitting in the back of my safe doing nothing. I'm thinking of sticking it on that gun along with 10-8 suppressor height sights as a backup.
Who do you recommend to mill the slide to accept the RMR?
