Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns RMR and 1911? - Ed Brown Kobra Carry with RMRcc

I love my Ed brown Kobra Carry but I do not love my eyesight. Presbyopia, the need to wear reading glasses, has really limited my ability to see irons in good light, and its super fuzzy at best in waning light. I debated what to do...laser? I dont like laser grips really and dont want to always have to use a laser to shoot accurately. I went the RMR route and went with the RMRcc as it has a smaller footprint and doesnt hang over the slide.

I must say the cut is pretty deep into the slide and combined with the co-witness sights, it has been pretty easy to acquire the red dot rapidly. I had American Flag serrations cut into the rear... Anyway, I like it and it works for me. The RMRcc has the same electronics as the SRO which is an update over the type 2. I leave it on auto-adjust and have not had any issues with the dot being too bright or too dark. I went with the 6.5MOA dot for obvious reasons. Let me know if you have questions.... Btw, some will say the Trijicon is so expensive vs Holosun. I paid $409 new from Eurooptic and Im getting 100$ rebate from Trijicon, so $309 total.

Really nice. I have a couple of RMR handguns and like them.

I just ejaculated in my pants a little.....

Very nice! I’ve got an Exec. Carry and my aging eyes are having the same trouble. Did Brown do the work? I may have to look into a similar setup. Think I’d shoot it more for sure.

The red dot for me allows me to shoot without glasses which is huge.
I sent it to Ed brown. They have a couple different options, well a lot actually depending on which way you go. I will say it’s much cheaper to get the slide cut for the standard RMR type 2, that is the larger RMR. I did it all through emailing their customer service.

Great. Thanks!

Nice setup, DAMAR.

Despite the 1911. LOL

Smoking deal on those RMRcc right now. I don’t really need one but may buy anyhow.

That’s a sharp pistol. I see Ed Brown has it on their Facebook page now.

Interesting position on that rear sight ahead of the RMR. I’m still running my 1911 with a plate in the sight dovetail and finding that RMR dot quickly has been my issue. Muscle memory I’m sure, but I’d rather shoot my 9mm with the fiber optic Dawaon sights.
