Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the RMR Type 2 different from the original RMR?
The Type 2 features significantly upgraded electronics compared to the original RMR, including a redesigned button interface that prevents accidental brightness changes under recoil. The circuitry has been hardened for greater reliability, and the automatic brightness mode is more responsive, making it a meaningful upgrade for duty and defensive use.
Is the 6.5 MOA dot the right choice, or should I choose a smaller dot size?
The 6.5 MOA dot is best for fast target acquisition at typical defensive and duty distances — generally inside 25 yards — where speed is critical. If you primarily shoot at longer distances or require fine precision for competition, Trijicon also offers the RMR Type 2 in a 3.25 MOA dot. For most concealed-carry and home-defense applications, the 6.5 MOA is the recommended choice.
Will this RMR Type 2 fit my pistol slide directly?
The Trijicon RMR Type 2 uses the industry-standard RMR footprint, which is compatible with most milled pistol slides from Glock, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, Springfield Armory, and many others that are cut for an RMR. If your slide is not pre-milled, an aftermarket RMR-compatible mounting plate or a gunsmith milling service will be required. Always verify your specific slide model's compatibility before purchasing.
