I’ve been using C-more 6moa slide rides on my pcc’s. Old school but they work fine for me

Holy crap.  Picked the JP5 up from my FFL today, slapped the T1 on it and went to the local indoor range to zero it.  Obviously, I know nothing about tuning the operating system to my load, but with my 147 grain pistol load, it was ridiculously soft.  I've never been happier with a gun purchase.

Congrats on the new rig!  I'm picking up a JP5 today also!  Let's hope I have the same opinion of it!

Subsonic 147 gr seem to work best with stock lock piece.

I have a feeling you will finish just fine.  Sometimes going into something with zero expectations amazing things happen.

I’ve been shooting CO over the off-season. Took 12+ weeks off from the carbine. Just getting back on it now. 
 

And BTW…  no one forces y’all to live up there.

I'm pretty much in the same exact boat.  Been shooting pistols lately since that's how I got into uspsa to begin with.  I have lost a ton of skillz with them so it's been humbling trying to get back up to my M level.   Nobody forces me to live where I do, but family is a huge reason I stay.   Work too..

At some point, maybe I'll do a comparison between the 2.  Let's just say I'm exploring my options.  There is something to be said about having a less complex PCC.  10 mins of cleaning vs 60+ mins

Any experience with Holosun gold reticle? Just looking through them at the shop, the gold seems to work best with my astigmatism. My only question is how is gold outside? Everything pops indoors.

Basically trying to decide between 512 gold or 510 red/green.

Not only that, but also in the know in regards to keeping MPXs running, which few people seem to understand.

I dont have a magic secret tho.  I just clean the thing...  Back to the original topic of optics, I wouldnt mind trying out the holosun competition optic they released at shot.  im sure itll come out in 12 months kinda like the eflx.

I took the JP5 to the range yesterday and actually training with it and a MPX shooter who thought he might want a JP5.  We shot them side by side with my load and factory 115s and 124s.  His rifle felt about a pound heavier and "might" have been a tad  softer/flatter.  He also had a GMR-15 with him.  No comparison.  He has 3 MPXs and won't likely change over yet.  

 

I'm in love with this thing.  Soft, accurate and fun.  And as someone pointed out, a breeze to clean.  At the point things start to wear out, it will be a challenge according the the manual.

I'm left handed and left eye dominant.  I have an eye injury that will more or less prevent me from changing shoulders for hard leans to the right  I can do it, but it's super slow and awkward.  So should I mount a laser or a 45 degree mini-dot?  If I go mini-dot, it goes on the left side correct?

Do you mean hard leans to the right?

Yes, target on the left.

Offset optics go on your strong side, so the gun can be rolled toward your weak side.

Your post has me confused, which really isn’t that hard. Do you shoot with the gun on your right or left shoulder? Maybe I’m not understanding what you are saying.

I’m right handed and hard right leans are easy. Hard left leans are difficult because the gun is on my right, firing side, shoulder requiring me to lean out farther.  Therefore my offset optic is on the right side of the gun. On hard left leans I tilt the top of the gun toward the support side and sight with the offset optic.

 

[RangerTrace]

My wording wasn't very good.  I shoot a rifle on my left shoulder.  Targets to the right, causing a lean to the left are easy and of course targets on the far left, causing a hard lean to the right are nearly impossible.
