More Jaw than cheek bone or something like that? To each, their own. Your right, heavier stuff I use a check weld with the PCC it's more of a Jaw weld. Not sure why, just the way it is.

BiggMike Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I tried the 510C, green, on my GMR-15 and will there was absolutely noting wrong with it; it just was not the one for me. It was light weight, clear and rock steady but it was just something missing. I went back to my Vortex UH-1 which I shot all last year. The one thing I will miss is the ability to switch between he circle and the dot. Link to comment

gnhowell1 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 My apologies for the poor quality phone pics. Trust me when I say it's clearer than the 510 because it's sealed and purged. 3 reticle choices; 65 MOA Circle, 65 MOA Circle + 2 MOA dot, 2 MOA dot. Link to comment
ABQautoxer Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 That looks great. We'll be in the market for one if the HS507C doesn't pan out. Link to comment
gnhowell1 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Coupled with the 509, it may be the perfect short distance carbine optics combo. Link to comment

I don’t know if you’ve looked at the weather for Noveske it’s all rain. You’re lucky to have the 512 . The last time I used my 510 in the rain it starburst on me multiple times. I prefer my 510, but the forecast has me thinking I should use my mro. Edited February 18, 2019 by Bwillis Link to comment

Startingover Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 Optics planet is the only place that I see the spacer available for the 510c. Anyone know of anywhere else? Link to comment

I think I should wait to see if I ever get the actual optic first. LOL Link to comment
Bwillis Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) Shooters connection is $256 plus shipping. They have great customer service, fast shipping or you can use a place I won’t mention that has a terrible bbb rating and no phone number. I prefer my 510 over my mro and the cmore I had. The only downside I’ve found with the 510 is in wet conditions the diode can get water on it causing a starburst. There are a lot of positives huge window, small window frame, brightness, battery life, changing reticle is a breeze, the mount that comes on it is nice. Take the plunge you won’t regret it.

LOL Watching tracking numbers is always good fun. Especially when you order something from a drop shipper that you know nothing about! LOL It's finally on it's way though. I probably wouldn't have ordered it from MVO if weren't for the few of you earlier in this thread that had done it successfully. Link to comment

I agree support forum vendors or ppl in the ee. I’ve called sc with questions about products/problems multiple times they always answered my questions and were polite. I’ll pay more for knowing if I have an issue they will answer the phone and remedy the situation. Link to comment
Shootymacshootface Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I just ordered a 6moa Cmore Railway from Shooters Connection. I plan to use it for small 3gun venues, Steel Challenge, hopefully some uspsa. I was hesitant to to buy one from Amazon or eBay because of all of the counterfeits out there. I've had great luck with Cmore red dots. This will be #4. Link to comment
Startingover Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 (edited) Just got the 510c today, and it's on the gun. I like it! much less distortion from my astigmatism than compared to my Vortex Razor. The nice part about having your laser zeroed at the exact same distance, is you dont need to fire a single shot to install and zero the new optic. Just point it down the hall and overlap the two, and you are done! How many of you are not running the hood to save the weight? The hood and 4 screws are 1.2 oz. I think I will run it for now Edited February 22, 2019 by Startingover Link to comment
TNREDNECK Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I love mine got it on sale at primary arms, great service and fast shipping . I wish I knew someone with a green one wondering if it helps older eyes. Link to comment
