balmo Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Thinking of upgrading from a Holosun 503c to a 510c with these 4th of July sales but I'm curious with the green dot. Anybody shoot green dot? Do you prefer it over the red dot? Does it pop out more? Or is it just the same? Thanks. Link to comment
goldfish Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 They are okay if you are not running a green laser sighting, it gets confusing. Link to comment
Tampa-XD45 Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I shoot green dot in Florida. My cheapo Truglo has red & green reticles and I always go with the green. Link to comment
Justin_Hill Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Love everything about my 510C elite. My eyes see green faster and I have a green laser so when I look through the sight it's not confusing. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment
Zeros Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I am also debating between the red and green HS510c, so I may not be so much help in your decision, but wanted to ask if you saw any good deals on either one. I have been watching the usual places but have not come across a deal yet. Link to comment
balmo Posted July 3, 2018 Author Share Posted July 3, 2018 Its $269 right now at Optics Planet for the red dot if you add 10% off 4th of July coupon, plus shipping Link to comment
JAFO Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I prefer a green fiber optic on my Production gun, hands down. So I would probably prefer green on my PCC, too. But they aren't as easy to find (or as cheap) as red. Plus I have a primary and offset dot, and I'd have to replace both or that would just be too weird. Link to comment
phoenixsomd Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 For me there is a clear advantage running a green dot over the red. I shoot pistol and pcc with both eyes open and a target focus. Green easily appears in my overall picture better than red. I know part of it has to do where green light is positioned in the visible spectrum.Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment
stick Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 My C-more is Red. My laser is green. Does that count? Link to comment

Tan40 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 The human eye is supposed to pick up green better than red. I have tried green fiber optics and green dots and I personally like red better. Maybe, you just can’t teach old dogs new tricks?? Link to comment
TalkingMonkey Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 The 510C Elite is available for $287.09 shipped from Optics Planet with code 13RDS. Code is good through the 16th. Link to comment
Neomet Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) I like green fiber optics but in bright sun a green dot gets washed out to me. Then again, I have vision I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Edited July 11, 2018 by Neomet Link to comment
jbran267 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 Shooting in the woods on my home range I prefer green (vortex spitfire). In matches with dirt berms and direct sun I prefer the red. Link to comment
