    Which Trijicon RMR for a pistol?

    Getting ready to mount a RMR on a M&P Pro Core, torn between the RM06 (3.25 MOA) vs. RM07 (6.5 MOA). I am no competition type guy, just looking for feedback on whether 3.25 is too small on a pistol or if 6.5 is too large before I blow $600.

    Thanks CG'ers !

    For a defensive pistol, 6.5. For a target pistol, 3.25.

      I would mirror the above...
      For accuracy and the ease of obtaining it... rmr06
      I love it and would not consider anything bigger for me

          Funny I'm doing the same search for this exact two options. Right when I think I figured it out I change my mind again.

          Where did you find the best price?

            Basically Brownell's or Midway, I think I am going 6.5 based on my poor eye sight and it will be used inside 25 yards.

              I think I found the best prices on Amazon. Under 550.

                I got a the tritium/fiber optic triangle because I hate batteries.

                Best prices I've seen in a while are at SLR Rifleworks and Exile Machine right now. Both are under $500 for the LED and under $450 for the tritium/fiber optic models.

                  ^ I did the same. I hate batteries so I opted for the RMR04(7MOA). OP, I would get the larger MOA. (Unless you plan on target shooting out past ~50YRDS then get the 3.5MOA).

                        A 6" dot at 100 yards covers 1 1/2" at 25 yards.

                        Or 12" at 200 yards.


                        For a pistol6-8" dots are great.
                        Rule 1- ALL GUNS ARE ALWAYS LOADED

                        Rule 2 -NEVER LET THE MUZZLE COVER ANYTHING YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO DESTROY (including your hands and legs)

                        Rule 3 -KEEP YOUR FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOUR SIGHTS ARE ON THE TARGET

                        Rule 4 -BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT
