Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key differences between the Trijicon RMR HD and RCR optics?

The RMR HD is an open-emitter reflex sight featuring a circle-dot reticle, while the RCR is a closed-emitter reflex sight designed for enhanced durability and protection against environmental elements like dust and water.

What does RMR stand for and what is its primary advantage?

RMR stands for Rugged Miniature Reflex. Its primary advantage is its exceptional durability and reliability, making it suitable for combat and demanding use cases, often referred to as 'bulletproof'.

How does the Trijicon RCR's enclosed design benefit users?

The RCR's enclosed design protects the reticle from external contaminants such as water, dust, and lint. This ensures a clear aiming point at all times and simplifies cleaning compared to open-emitter optics.

What is the GlockStore's 10-day optics program?

The GlockStore's 10-day optics program allows customers to send in their firearm slide for custom milling to accommodate an optic, installation of the optic, and return shipping, all completed within 10 business days.

What are the considerations for co-witnessing iron sights with the new Trijicon optics?

The RMR HD's thicker base can make co-witnessing difficult. For the RCR, suppressor height sights offer a partial co-witness, but the primary reliance is on the red dot. The depth of optic mounting on the slide also plays a crucial role.
