I’ve been looking for an answer on this. They state 5 years on setting 3 but it’s a little too dim. 4 is perfect and if I can get 4 years that’s freaking awesome!

[@IrishPennant0311]

You can use the blacked out front cap on a red dot to preserve battery life. By closing the front cap, you’re cutting off any ambient light from entering the tube. The dot will appear brighter on lower power settings, thus saving battery life, and you can still shoot accurately with it using both eyes open. You’ll superimpose the dot over the target normally and press. Also, closing the front cover limits the LED’s signature for anyone looking at you through NVG’s. My T2 is on the #8 setting, which washes out in daylight conditions, but my front cap is closed, so I can use it even on the brightest day.

If you shoot with both eyes open, you can shoot the PRO with the caps closed. The rear cap is clear, so its the same concept as the old OEG sights, your brain will superimpose the red dot into a clear field of view.

[@aahhronismyname8068]

I shoot with my mro with the cap closed as well. No issues at 50 yards. But i just made a cutout a "+" pattern on my front cap. Out to a 100 yards i can hit man size with both eyes open but i do better with 1 eye closed. Im getting old

[@chrisjones6002]

I was going to make the exact same comment. I've had a Pro on my rifle for several years now and I usually leave both caps closed and I have shot it that way just fine. Opening the front is better but not a must if you're in a rush.

Gosh now I'm torn. I was set on the aimpoint but I like the features of the mro. My eyesight isn't great so I don't like small optics or limited fields of view. I will have to see if I can see them both in person and make a decision. Update went to Gander Outdoors and had a chance to view both and the mro is the best option for me. The field of view is muuuuuch better. Not taking away from aimpoint but it felt like I was looking down a funnel and had to bring it much closer in order to make it more acceptable. The mro was more of a grab and go so my money will go with that optic. Glad I was able to view it person vs going on blind faith. This was one of the most helpful videos on the channel.

I have a first gen MRO. It does have a tint. It does have slight, but noticeable magnification. It does have a bit more parallax than some. Of course they have fixed some of that in the current version, but none of it bothers me. It has proven to be a great optic in my use. Great analysis.

[@Konvinced89]

I avoided the MRO for awhile due to the reported issues and parallax. Tried an Eotech first; liked the clarity and grainy donut reticle, hated the auto-off, short battery life and weight. I wanted Aimpoint form factor with Eotech FOV, so I decided to try a used MRO Patrol. I only have a few hundred rounds with it on my rig, but I really like it so far.

[@NGMonocrom]

I own both. Honestly, either one is going to be an excellent choice. Though if someone can only afford one.... MRO. Just the overall more compact size plus the increased better field of view. Put a nice LaRue mount on it, and you've got the total package. Bomb-proof durability, the MRO is right there with the PRO.

They're not going to be in the local store but they're easy to find online.

[@neurotoksyn]

both are great optics, the MRO is newer and used the PRO as a benchmark is why it lasts 40k hours rather than 30k; weight is a real concern for a lot of shooters too so I can see why the MRO is so popular. Personally, just because of battery availability, I'd go with the MRO (2032 batteries can be found everywhere) over the PRO.

[@jimb5512]

The one thing you missed in your review is the new MRO Green dot. I have 3 MRO's one of which is a green dot. You cannot leave it on setting 4 and forget it (like the red dots). They eat battery life fast. 3-4 months and the battery was dead. Because of that, I will stick with the red dots on future purchases.

[@enluzenment]

I think they went to the solid front cap because if you're shooting with both eyes open you can shoot with the front cap up with no problem. Your eyes do that thing where they transpose the image. With a clear cap that will inevitably get scratched up and cloudy, it makes it harder because your dominant eye is trying to look through all that crap whereas if the cap is solid black, your dominant eye will kind of shut off and transpose the picture from your other eye. I don't know if the way I explained that makes any sense but this is what I've noticed for myself anyway.

[@mrpibbtrrnt4766]

I did soooo much research before making a purchase. basically for me it boiled down to looks lol the aimpoint pro just looks cool to me. I don’t really care about weight. And i love trijicon because of the acog in the military. But between these two the winning factor was looks haha I never hear anyone say that the pro looks badass. Is it just me?? 😆

[@extraordinarywolf320]

I’m about to pull the trigger on a MRO just because of looks 😂

[@hailtothe_rooster1572]

Deployed with the aimpoint, 36y zero, and it definitely survived some shit for being on a secondary weapon. As a gunner it took back seat on the m4 in preference to the .50

[@geoffrey3289]

So the use of a blacked out front cover is to stop any reflection at all. Shooting with both eyes open does not require to flip the front cover open. Front cover not being open stops all glare or reflection of the glass.

[@LOMROB]

[@jamieclement3942]

I find the MRO parallax is sufficient to alter Iton sight zero. Also the MRO, for me, is not useable with a magnifier. I have several PROs and MROs...something to consider..both are great as stand alone red dots...just the parallax can be a quirk for the MRO for some applicants. I should note I have astigmatism.

[@robertwortel9407]

The aimpoint pro is useable with the front solid flip cap closed if you shoot with both eyes open. Its similar to the binding aiming concept with a 4x Acog your dominant eye will take over and your aiming eye will see the dot and it all blends together. I believe this is explained in the aimpoint pro user manual.

Where does the Aimpoint T-1 and T-2 fit into this discussion? Do you prefer them over the Aimpoint Pro? why or why not? and if you do prefer them over the Pro do you prefer them over the MRO? Why or why not? I decided to buy an Aimpoint T-2 over the MRO because I thought I'd like the lack of blue tint and the "Proven Factor". The T-2 is absolutely crystal clear and I love it, but sometimes I wonder if the blue tint would mitigate the sun a bit in super bright conditions. Great video as always.

[@sherweezy408]

I have the T2 and love it, but for some reason the blue tint on some optics helps with my astigmatism

[@razz339]

I believe the reason Aimpoints come with black lens caps in the front is to eliminate scope glint. I have noticed that even with the clear lens cap closed it can generate a significant amount of glint if the light hits it in the the right direction. I have noticed this when using them out in the sun. You can also simulate it with a flashlight if you are curious.

In regards to forgetting to flip the front cap open on your red dot or not having the time to do so before it gets pressed into action shouldn't really be of much concern as long as you shoot "the correct way", meaning both eyes open. Shooting with both eyes open & the front cap closed the red dot will be superimposed onto the target, barring any eye issues. Leaving the front cap closed is a good way to see if a shooter really is shooting with both eyes open as well as being a good method to help teach new shooters how to shoot with both eyes open.

I`m trying to figure out what a great CQB optic would be on a "budget". I have zero experience in this arena, but it seems institutive that an Eotech type sight would be much quicker target acquisition, versus tube type sight like an Aimpoint PRO or Trinjicon MRO. But the battery life being so much better on the tube-type sights is an issue. But then again, the Eotech, or even Holosun sights being parallax-free is huge. I am stuck and cannot make up my mind. What do I do? And just a side note, I may hope to get a magnifier down the line...

[@jacobwhittaker6241]

I shoot red dots with both eyes open and still like the larger field of view. When I bring the rifle/optic up into my field of view the larger glass makes the dot ever so slightly easier to find, in my mind it feels faster but I could be wrong.

Another good video, would be nice to see the Trijicon MRO VS Aimpoint T2, that’s more often for me at least people ask about, also their newer Comp m5.

Great video. However I would just like to recommend that you write bigger on that whiteboard or zoom in more on you & the whiteboard together. The scenery is beautiful in the background. And if you do want to keep the background scenery on your video Just write bigger on the whiteboard to where what you write on it fills it out more so its easier to see on the video. Now thanks to your video, I think I'm going to order an MRO for my WASR-10 to mount on top of my GG&G AK side rail optic mount. Thanks for the content and video.

Thanks; tell your friends!

What do you think about the complaints about the MRO having a small amount of magnification? I've been hearing a lot of people talk about it.

Love both the PRO and the MRO, love the MRO just a bit more. Would still buy the PRO for specific applications.

I went with the Pro. My other red dot is a CompML3.

Have to go with the MRO. It's light as hell, and on paper is more robust because of the 7075 Aluminum. Honestly go with what you prefer. Due to size differences it's kinda like comparing apples to oranges. They are only similar in regards to price.
