[QUOTE="rockchalk06, post: 4115083, member: 40794"] Thinner has less durability. When the MRDS started gaining popularity, they were pumped out quickly we found most had zero durability. Just because you aren't going to be in the ****, doesn't mean someone else won't be and needs that durability. If I cant trust the optic to be racked of a hard object or dropped on a hard surface, I have no reason to have said optic. I could just as easily go back to irons and have 10 times the durability as most MRDS. I don't pay attention to the frame of the optic. I pay attention to my target. The frame either disappears when the weapon is held correctly or becomes an afterthought while I am staying target focused as is the whole reason behind an MRDS. Holosun makes the 508/509 which has a much more generous window. Even my 507C is giant compared to my standard RMR. If you are not concerned with durability, Sig Romeo 1 or the 2nd gen have yuge windows, clear glass with no tint and crisper dots (my eyes) [/QUOTE]
