Trijicon mitigated this problem by developing a \u201cgreen\u201d dot that is actually more of a chartreuse. For those not familiar with the finer points of color hues, chartreuse is a yellowish-green that appears more readily among the leaves of trees and shrubs.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_91303\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-trijicon-green-dot-mro-goes-where-red-dots-cant\" title=\"New Trijicon Green Dot MRO Goes Where Red Dots Can\u2019t\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-91303\" title=\"New Trijicon Green Dot MRO Goes Where Red Dots Can\u2019t\" class=\"size-large wp-image-91303\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2-1024x706.jpg\" alt=\"New Trijicon Green Dot MRO Goes Where Red Dots Can\u2019t\" width=\"1024\" height=\"706\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2-1024x706.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2-150x103.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2-400x276.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2-768x529.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/MRO-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-91303\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The \u201cgreen\u201d dot is more of a yellowish-green to enhance visibility in forest or jungle settings.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Trijicon also told us that they developed the Green Dot MRO after law enforcement agents reported difficulty distinguishing between red dots and laser sights. Border Patrol agents specifically found red dots difficult to distinguish from tail lights during traffic patrols. The green dot mitigates both of these problems, and this MRO comes with the same features and durability we\u2019ve come to expect from Trijicon.<\/p>\n<h2>SEE ALSO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/swap-trijicon-sights-glock\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"new-trijicon-green-dot-mro-goes-where-red-dots-cant\" title=\"New Trijicon Green Dot MRO Goes Where Red Dots Can\u2019t\" rel=\"bookmark\">Sight Swap!
