Sarge Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I have two Cmore slide rides that have never failed me. I also ran a Cmore RTS2 on my main gun all this year with no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onepocket Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Sarge, how is the clarity between those two dots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tattooo Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 I killed two DPP on a PCC rifle.What was the approx round count and did Leupold warranty them ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onepocket Posted October 12, 2017 Author Share Posted October 12, 2017 Maybe 10-15k. Yes Leupold took care of it 100%. It died the last time at a bigger match and I am done with that product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ming the Merciless Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 C-More slide ride. My practice pistol still has the same C-More that was on the gun when it was originally built in 1999. It has outlasted 3 slides & barrels and I think 4 compensators. I've changed the dot every couple of years, sometimes because the battery didn't seem to be lasting as long and sometimes just changing the dot size. My match Pistol had a C-More for 6 years, then I tried several of the micro red dots, and went back to a C-More after about a year of monkeying around. Then tried horizontal mounts and finally went back to straight up old school vertical. I have at least a dozen C-Mores on various guns and I have had only one failure with a bad intermittent switch during a match. I fixed it temporarily by turning the knob on full and running a piece of black target tape across the knob. I fixed it permanently by re-soldering the switch leads to the circuit board.

zzt Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I have slide mounted FF3s on 1911 for years with no failures. My main Open pistol wears a frame mounted Slideride. No problems except for short battery life. My backup Open gun wears a frame mounted DPP 2.5. No issues. I'll probably switch to the DPP for both guns, plus the two I'm building now. I have three RTS2s. One slide mounted on a 1911 45; the other on a CZ TS 40. No problems except for battery life. The third RTS2 is on a 22, so it doesn't count. The FF3s are all 8MOA and hold up forever, but the dots are dimmer than the others. The SR is a 6MOA, as are the RTS2s. While I love the big glas on the SR, the RTS2s have a brighter dot (with a new battery), and the glass has more contrast. The DPP dot is a little smaller than the 6MOAs, but way brighter. There is zero problem picking up the dot on white steel in full sunlight. There is also no problem with glare when the sun is in front of you.

JRM83 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 (edited) The only optics I owned that I haven't killed were a Slide ride (only shot it for a few months though) and Shield RMS (only mounted a few weeks now, about 1k rounds). FF3 - plastic covering the emitter fell off. Replaced under warranty. RTS2 - cracked lens (my fault) and bad board (not my fault). Paid for lense, board replaced under warranty. OG Deltapoint - Died dead as disco. Replaced under warranty. Replacement did not have enough elevation to zero. Replaced with pro under warranty. PA Advanced Micro dot - Optic lost brightness until it wasn't daylight visible even with new batteries. Replaced under warranty. Deltapoint Pro - something odd happened to the lens in storage making the reticle unusable. Replaced under warranty.
