Redwingsfansfc Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Looking for an option with a co witness rmr. Seen the scalarworks SYNC, but whoo-boy the price tag. Like editing, search seems to be an option on non drinking days, but found some options as late as 2018. Any 2020 views? Bottom line want the option of ghost ring and red dot as a backup to either.

jimbo45 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 The scalarworks mounts seems to be the go to and I they're only $100 or $150. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdog19 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Senior Chief - I agree with the others above, Scalarworks with an RMR is what I am running I think it is about perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsfansfc Posted September 14, 2020 Author Share Posted September 14, 2020 Thanks guys for the replies. I think I came to the same conclusion as well. @bird dog do you think the RMR is just right, or should I go with the SRO? I do like the expanded FOV on the SRO but not sure if it would matter. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwingsfansfc Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share Posted September 15, 2020 All right scratch this whole post. Not sure how I missed this thread. Going with the RMR option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerDanger Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 My default is to go with the RMR RM09 which is a 1 moa dot size optic. I don't see a reason to ever use the larger moa dots. The 1 moa is fast to find since you have a pretty solid cheek weld that guides your face to the optic. Currently on mine are 3.5 moa models since the smaller dot size ones were moved to other platforms. I don't like busy sights and I hate looking thru a tube on a firearm that is meant for more close quarters engagements. So I remove the iron sights from my M4's that have the RMR present. This cuts about 4 ounces of weight which more than offsets the gains of the RMR and Scalarworks Sync rail. Now if you find that the optic sits too low, there are spacer options of 2.5 and 10mm that will raise the optic slightly. This may make sighting more comfortable when using the middle position of the collapsible stock. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xblax619 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 (edited) quote “it puts the red dot a hair above the front site and I mean a hair. pretty much perfect.” could u possibly post a pic of your sight picture? the scalarworks website puts the trijicon rmr dot within/in-line with the stock ghost ring sights.

peterc Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) I tried to take a pic with my SRO but couldn't get my iPhone to focus on the dot no matter what. My dot sit pretty much at the exact same spot as the Scalarworks pic posted above. Edited February 4, 2021 by peterc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
