Switching to Trijicon

[hbrogers]

My first experience with red dot sights was with Sig Optics and it has been a good one, but I haven't had much to compare to. I recently purchased an Trijicon RMR for my G19 and noticed how much more robust the sight is compared to the Romeo 1's that I have. After handling the RMR, I checked out the Trijicon MRO and have decided to put the MRO on my MCX 9" SBR and the MRO Patrol on my MCX 16" Patrol. Last night I came across one for an incredible price (seems too good to be true) and was wondering if anyone had any experience with the dealer/site or if there is a chance that it is a knockoff. Link is below and I hope to get y'all's thoughts on this purchase.

That's not a too-good-to-be-true price. Brownells has them for a similar price if you'd feel more comfortable buying from them.

Botach (I know, I know) has them for $349 without a mount. $345 at Arms Unlimited.

Yeah. That price. Umm not so much. You can find them for that price with or better with a Geissele mount.

You guys must have missed that the OP is talking about the MRO Patrol. Trijicon includes caps, kill-flash and a decent mount. https://www.brownells.com/optics-mou...rod104178.aspx

I did miss that! Thanks for pointing that out.

Me too. Off to the corner.

Not sure why anyone would buy any Sig optic... AFAIK they don't manufacture any optics, they simply slap their name on them.

Yeah, I was talking about the MRO Patrol and not the regular MRO.

No big deal guys. I thought the OP's "MRO Patrol" was a typo. I didn't know it existed before today. What attracted me to the MRO were 3 things. Low weight, compact size, FOV and price point. The new Patrol version takes away what attracted me to it in the first place.
