ShortBus Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Noticed the back of my actual optic and the glass on the backside is getting pretty dirty with soot/carbon. Is this normal? 2011 platform cheely mount DPP optic. Thinking of of switching to the Everglades mount to help get it back more, should I be worried about a early unlocking?

Pirate Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I have the DP Pro with an Everglades mount and I don't notice anything on either side of the optic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I've got a FastFire III slide mounted on a 1911 .45 and don't get any firing residue on the dot sight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im hoping it's just from slow powder, maybe a little still lingering when it unlocks. Using HS6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrLove Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 It really depends on the powder. I've noticed that some of the more expensive powders (VVs for example) leave minimal residue at any one location while cheaper powders leave a mess everywhere.

BeerBaron Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 2011 with CK mount (RTS2). yep underside of the rear of the mount and the back part of the optic base are BLACK. top of the slide there gets black too. it's not a timing problem. gas comes out there during ejection.

Sir, I would never feed such a fine machine cheap powder! I have spared no expense! At $20 a pound HS6 is a king among men! Lol it it is pretty cheap and dirty.
