arcminutes. 54 / 5 π ≈ 3.4377′. A milliradian (SI -symbol mrad, sometimes also abbreviated mil) is an SI derived unit for angular measurement which is defined as a thousandth of a radian (0.001 radian). Milliradians are used in adjustment of firearm sights by adjusting the angle of the sight compared to the barrel (up, down, left, or ...
In June 2013 Pentax announced the successors to the K-30, the K-50 and K-500.
