Trijicon MRO
Been watching classifieds waiting on a chance to,snag an MRO at a price I like. My question is what is the deal with the serial numbers? People seem to want a post 89k serial number optic. Is there a major quality difference between the pre and post 89k units?

Re: Trijicon MRO
The newer ones supposedly have less of a bluer tint and a true 1x magnification whereas the originals provided a very slight 1.05x magnification which can mess with you when shooting both eyes open. I have 3 pre 89k serials and they are all just fine to me. I guess if you can get a smoking deal, don*t worry about the serial #. It is a fantastic red dot regardless of the generation.

Re: Trijicon MRO
Anyone running one on a AR pistol? I'm thinking of getting one for a 10.5 5.56.
I don't think I'm going to put BUS on it so I want something good that will hold it's zero.
My only concern is that it will be a bit big and bulky. Any other recommendations for something decent, that's under $500 are welcome.

Re: Trijicon MRO
It's a great optic with great glass, my other recommendation would be the Holosun 515 GM it's bomb proof. If you want to stay assembled in America Sig's version of the Holosun 515 GM which is most likely imported parts and assembled here in America is the Romeo 4T which can be found around the $500.00 mark give or take a few bucks. I have used the MRO many times and it's really great with excellent FOV in that big lens. I personally own the 515 GM and I really really like it since it's packed with a ton of features in a upgraded housing, and can really be put to the test. I have no experience with the Romeo 4T, I know they are used by some federal LE and have seen them tested on the net with great results. I have other Sig Options like the Romeo 5, I have several of them and they are the best budget dot on the market especially when they were $99.00, but even at $130-$150.00 I would still rank them the same so I would feel confident owning a 4T.

Re: Trijicon MRO
My main concern with the MRO is that there's some testing out there that seems to suggest that it has a lot more parallax error than other red dots.
