Aimpoint NANO VS Trijicon RMR

I would not consider an RMR for anything, not just due to the dark blue tint that blinds you in the dark, but the extreme optical distortion and tiny window. Rather than compare it to an RMR, Id rather see it compared to a Deltapoint Pro, which has a 2.5 MOA dot and seems ideal on a handgun. I wouldn't want a bigger dot and my astigmatism was surgically corrected.

The RMR is pretty much the industry standard for pistol optics. Yes, people do use the DP, but it not that common. So we used the the more common optic for comparison.

Anyone running an RMR on a carbine? Thoughts?

Yes, some folks do. I have messed with them, but found that they did not work out for me.

Thank you for this, and for everything else you do on this forum, but for the sake of comparison, it would be easier if everything were either metric OR standard...

Welcome. Understand. The info came one way from Aimpoint and figured people could run the calculations on their own if they were really interested. :-)

Is the window really that small?? .630" x .512" That's kind of teeeeeny. One of the complaints if the RMR is window size relative to say a DP or even a Vortex. Not familiar with the B&T thingie, but it appears to have a shoulder stock in that pic. Is that the case?

Seems like Aimpoint has got a few things right. Sealed unit, battery swap without optic removal, but the window size may not be well received by some folks. Thinking they may have some more work ahead of them.

It is smaller than the RMR window (by a little bit). Yes, a stock comes with USW, but you would have to SBR it before being able to attach it.

Unless the NANO is a sealed beam unit, is that the case?

Did we ever get an answer to this? The pictures make it appear to be sealed, but it'd be nice to have confirmation.

It is sealed. No projection onto a window like the RMR.

Pics don't work for me, anyone else?

Call me stupid, but what's the Nano's mount height? Is it low enough I could slap it onto a CASV or similar 1/2" riser and still get co-witness on an F-marked FSB AR?
