Trijicon MRO: New Mini Reflex Sight

Trijicon announced the introduction of the MRO: Miniature Rifle Optic. The new Trijicon MRO is a non-magnifying red dot-type optic that is lightweight and compact. (Ed. note: Read my MRO review here.)

According to the company, the MRO significantly reduces the tube effect sometimes found with other optics. Trijicon states they managed to overcome this by using a large objective lens (25mm) and keeping the optic length to a minimum. Trijicon advises the sight is parallax free and has an infinite eye relief.

Glock Rear Sight Rail

Strike Industries is developing a rear sight rail for Glock pistols so you can add a red dot or other optic to your Austrianhandgun without having to do any machine work on your pistol’s slide.

Right now, Strike Industries has not published a lot of information on the rail, but it would appear to be a short Picatinny rail that mounts to the Glock by use of the normal rear sight dovetail. This should mean that a shooter could merely tap out the factory sight and install this rail. He or she could then drop the optic of choice onto the rail.
