✅ Why Choose RMR Footprint Optics?
- Universal Fit – Compatible with popular platforms like Glock MOS, P320, FN 509, and many AR-15 optics mounts.
- Durability – Trusted by military and LE for holding zero under recoil and impact.
- Flexibility – Wide variety of dot sizes, colors, and window sizes for every shooting style.
- Co-Witness Ready – Pairs well with suppressor-height sights for lower 1/3 or absolute co-witness.

🔧 Mounting Compatibility Tips
- Glock MOS & P320 RX: Most models need an adapter plate for RMR footprint red dots unless you have a direct-cut slide.
- AR-15 Platforms: Use an RMR riser mount for co-witness or low-mount positioning on flat-top receivers.
- Compact Pistols: The RMR footprint is larger than RMSc — check slide cuts before ordering for micro carry guns.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an RMR footprint?
The RMR footprint is a mounting pattern developed by Trijicon. It uses two screws and two recoil lugs and has become a standard for reflex sights due to its strength and compatibility.
Can I mount an RMR footprint red dot to a Glock MOS?
Yes, most Glock MOS slides are compatible with RMR optics using an adapter plate — or directly if the slide is cut to match.
What’s the difference between RMR and RMSc?
RMR footprints are larger and used on full-size optics. RMSc is a micro footprint found on small, slim pistols like the Glock 43X or Springfield Hellcat.
Do I need a riser mount for AR-15 use?
Yes — an RMR riser mount is recommended to align the red dot with your iron sights or achieve proper eye-level height on AR platforms.
