This video discusses the potential drawbacks of auto-adjusting red dot sights, particularly in dynamic shooting scenarios where sudden changes in lighting can cause the dot to disappear. The speaker, a firearms instructor, advocates for manual adjustment of red dot brightness for consistent visibility. He shares an anecdote from training a SWAT team where multiple officers experienced issues with auto-adjusting sights in specific lighting conditions. The recommendation is to use sights with variable brightness controls that allow the user to manually set the illumination level based on ambient light.
The Trijicon RMR HD, showcased at Shot Show 2024, features an advanced auto-adjusting reticle system that effectively manages challenging lighting conditions, including weapon-mounted lights. It offers customizable brightness ranges, multiple reticle options (55 MOA circle/dot or dot only), and a top-loading battery for convenient changes without losing zero. The sight maintains an RMR footprint for compatibility with existing mounts.
