Advanced Engineering for Maximum Protection
Innovative Impact Mitigation Design
The RMR Type 2 features Trijicon's patented housing architecture specifically engineered to redirect and absorb impact forces, providing superior protection for the critical lens assembly. Despite this robust protection, the sight maintains an impressively lightweight profile at just 1.2 ounces, making it ideal for applications where weight savings are paramount.
The Green Dot Advantage: Superior Performance Across All Conditions
Scientific Foundation for Green Wavelength Technology
According to Trijicon's research and development team, the selection of green wavelength technology provides measurable advantages over traditional red dot systems:
"Green dot sights take advantage of the human eye's peak sensitivity to green wavelengths, making them appear brighter and easier to acquire in daylight, even at lower brightness settings—prolonging battery life. They maintain visibility in bright conditions, resist washout, and perform better in fog, haze, or against complex backgrounds. Green is easier on the eyes, reducing strain during prolonged use and provides a clearer aiming point for many with astigmatism or red-green color blindness. In both low-light and high-glare environments, green delivers vivid contrast and detail, enabling quicker target acquisition and sustained accuracy."
Enhanced Visibility and User Comfort
The green dot technology offers several key advantages:
- Improved visibility in challenging lighting conditions
- Reduced eye strain during extended shooting sessions
- Better performance for users with certain vision conditions
- Superior contrast against varied backgrounds
- Enhanced battery efficiency at lower brightness settings

Advanced Electronic Systems and User Features
Robust Electronics Package
The RMR Type 2 Green Dot incorporates a sophisticated electronics package with specially engineered battery contacts designed to maintain reliable operation under severe recoil forces and extreme environmental conditions. This enhanced electrical system ensures consistent performance regardless of the mounting platform or shooting discipline.
Intelligent Power Management
Button Lock Out Mode
The sight features an integrated Button Lock Out Mode that prevents accidental brightness adjustments during transport, storage, or tactical operations. This feature ensures your preferred brightness setting remains unchanged when you need it most.
Battery Conservation Mode
After 16.5 hours of inactivity, the sight automatically enters Battery Conservation Mode, intelligently adjusting the dot brightness to match ambient lighting conditions. This smart power management extends operational life without completely shutting down the optic, ensuring immediate readiness when needed.
Operational Specifications and Performance
Power and Battery Life
The RMR Type 2 Green Dot operates on a single CR2032 lithium battery, providing up to two years of continuous operation when set to medium brightness levels. This exceptional battery life ensures reliable performance for extended periods without the need for frequent battery changes.
Precision Adjustment System
The sight incorporates audible windage and elevation adjustment mechanisms that enable precise zeroing without requiring specialized tools. These tactile and audible clicks provide positive feedback for accurate adjustments in various lighting conditions.
Pricing and Availability
The Trijicon RMR Type 2 - 3.25 MOA Green Dot reflex sight carries a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $810, positioning it competitively within the premium compact reflex sight market segment.
