POTD: FNH SCARL In Force After Brussels Failed Attack
For #FNFriday here are some Belgian SCARs being used. Just last Tuesday days ago Brussels, the capital of Belgium, was attacked by a suicide bomber. Luckily he sucked at his job. The Belgian Army was seen patrolling the area after the bomber had been neutralized. You can see they were primarily armed with FNH SCARL. Im not sure if these are considered MK16 like the ones the US uses. The MK16 has a shorter barrel.

BREAKING: Trijicon To Announce New RMR Model?
It looks like Trijicon is releasing a new RMR model that has been revised to addresses many of the concerns with the original model. It appears that the RMR Type 2 will retain all of the features that we know and love with the addition of some new ones as well as refinements that should make it an all around better optic.
TFB REVIEW: Trijicon MRO Red Dot Sight From Brownells
To say that firearms optics technology has advanced in the last decade would be an understatement. Sure, it’s all relative – the original jump from iron sights to optical magnification must have seemed to the marksman of the day like peering into the future. But as current technology marches on, the miniaturization of electronics and the optical clarity of lenses grows at an amazing pace. Although, the Trijicon MRO isn’t a new addition to the market, it is rapidly gaining ground on competitors due to it’s solid performance and affordable price point.
NEW: TangoDown iO MRO Protective Cover
TangoDown has developed a slim fit protective cover for the Trijicon Miniature Rifle Optic (MRO). Designed to take the impact of bumps and abrasions, the lightweight polyurethane cover comes in black or FDE but can be dipped or painted with most coverings. For $35, the iO cover is cheap insurance for your pricey optic.
Trijicon Knock-Offs Getting "Better" (Or Worse, Depends on Perspective…)
Compared to most industries, the firearms world has been relatively free from the bane and scourge of fake products. Sure, there are a fair amount of knock-offs, but those are typically re-branded and sold for a lot less while looking similar. However, in the last year, direct copies have been trickling into the market.

Trijicon Announces the New HD XR Pistol Sights |SHOT 2017
Trijicon has introduced a number of new products at SHOT this year. In fact some of these new optics have already been posted for you to check out. I was lucky enough to receive a set of the XD HR sights prior to SHOT for evaluation. These pistol sights will be available for many popular guns.

TFB's 10th Day Of Christmas: Red Dot Optics
So, the headline is slightly misleading – obviously there are options listed here that should be classified as holographic or prismatic sights and not red dots ( we talked about the differences a few months back in the astigmatism informational post). You see, I had hoped to do a lead-off picture where Rudolph’s red nose was the red dot inside the glass and throw in some holographic snowflakes… nevermind. You get the point – the electronic sights listed below are 1X, have illuminated reticles and brightness controls.
New Trijicon Products
As to be expected, Trijicon will introduce a number of new products at the 2017 SHOT Show. These new products include a variety of scopes, optics and pistol sights.

Lightweight Scalarworks Mount for RMR
I have been a willing spectator (and participant at my day job) in the pursuit of reducing weight from firearms. Armed with billet, companies are using CNC machines and a bit of engineering to remove in many cases over 95% of the base billet into some truly unique products.
Trijicon's New MGRS: Machine Gun Reflex Sight
Trijicon announced a new reflex style sight designed specifically for military use on machine guns. The company states the new MGRS (Machine Gun Reflex Sight) is engineered for the pounding any optic will take when mounted to a rifle caliber, full auto weapon.

Lightning Review: Midwest Industries Gen2 AK Handguard
About a month ago Midwest Industries leaked out this photo of their new Gen2 AK Handguard. I had to get one. The ability to mount a Trijicon MRO and co-witness irons is what sold me.

No Such Thing As Parallax Free
Dave Merrill of Breech Bang Clear explains that there is really no such thing as parallax free. He breaks it down rather simply and it is easy to grasp.
