Key Advantages of Flat Dark Earth Trijicon Red Dot Sights

FDE Trijicon Red Dot Sights are engineered to meet the highest standards of reliability. The Flat Dark Earth Cerakote finish is not merely cosmetic; it provides superior resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and abrasion, ensuring your optic performs regardless of environmental stress. Models like the Trijicon RMR Type 2 FDE set the industry standard for pistol-mounted red dots, offering exceptional battery life and a patented housing shape that diverts impact force.

Compatibility & Footprint

Understanding the optical footprint is essential for successful mounting. The majority of our FDE Trijicon Pistol Optics utilize the standard Trijicon RMR footprint.

Trijicon RMR Footprint

The Trijicon RMR footprint is the most common mounting standard for modern pistol slide cuts and adapter plates. The Trijicon RMR FDE and the Trijicon RMR Type 2 FDE utilize this specific mounting pattern, which typically involves two screw holes and two alignment posts. Ensure your pistol slide is milled for the RMR standard, or that you have the appropriate adapter plate, to guarantee a secure, precise fit.
