Norwich University Study On Trijicon RMR Vs Pistol Iron Sights

Norwich University Pistol Study

Click to view .pdf
James E. Ryan and Robin Adler of the Department of Justice Studies and Sociology at Norwich University ran a comparative pistol project with the purpose of examining the effectiveness of traditional pistol iron sights versus Trijicon’s RMR red dot optic sight. The study, which consisted of 27 students split into two roughly equal groups, shows that the group who used pistols (Glock 19s for the purpose of the study) equipped with the RMR showed statistically superior “hits on paper” and accuracy when compared to the traditional iron sight group. The full study can be read in .pdf form by clicking the image above.

The Variable Combat Optical Gunsight from Trijicon unveiled earlier this year will be shipping soon.

It’s a first focal plane optic with two different BDC reticles available. One is a horseshoe dot and the other is a segmented circle. There are currently three different BDCs; 5.56mm, 7.62mm and .300 Blackout. The VCOG relies on a single AA battery offering 700 hours of continuous use on settings 4-6. It’s built to Mil Spec and guarantees 4″ of eye relief regardless of magnification.

Finally, the VCOG offers a unique feature. The Integrated Mounting Adapter is compatible with not only their ACOG mounts but many other commercially available models as well.

VCOG

Trijicon recently released the Variable Combat Optical Gunsight or VCOG which is a 1-6×24 variable powered riflescope with an LED illuminated first focal plane Bullet Drop Compensating reticle. It will be offered with an integrated thumbscrew or quick release mount. It features adjustable brightness settings and is powered by a single AA battery. You’ll get about 700 hours out of that battery on settings 4-6.

Here are a few other features.

Marine South – Trijicon CCAS

Trijicon’s Continuously Computed Aiming Solution is a fixed 6 power optical sight. It increases first round hits and decreases ammo and training requirements. What’s more, the software firing tables loaded into the CCAS take the math out of the equation. You simply aim at the target and the corrected reticle’s chevron shows you where to point the weapon.

It reaches out to a maximum range of 2400m and with its onboard laser rangefinder and other sensors takes into account barometric pressure, angle, temperature and range, calculating everything except for wind. Additionally, the shooter can select weapon and ammo. Weighing in at 72 oz it is really more at home on a crew served weapon but it can be mounted to everything from the M4 carbine up through the M2 HMG. With its 4 CR-123A batteries, expect 10 hours of operation from the CCAS.
