Bro a “Fat wrench” torque wrench is only about $60. If you’re going to drop $500 on a pistol and another $2-300 on an optic, and then do your own gunsmithing. You should definitely invest in some basic smithing tools.

I bought the DPP plate and was impressed with the quality. I actually calipered it and it is the advertised .058" thickness. I installed with locktite and a torque driver and the front end kept lifting becoming loose after a day at the range. The marks I placed on the screws indicating the screws are not backing out. Not sure what exactly is going on but im returning it.

The rattling from the striker is normal for this firearm - go do some research - plenty of info on it, since its a Striker fire pistol; however, I did replace the striker guide with a stainless steel unit that I picked up from lakelinellc and it works with the OEM striker. It was damn worth it vs the stock plastic striker guide that can easily break and broke on my during cleaning. Also you can get an more upgraded Titanium striker guide, upgraded striker pin, upgraded striker guide spring, upgraded seer spring and upgraded safety spring in one kit from mcarbo. Major upgrade to help with better trig pull and shorter reset.

How has the DPP plate held up? I'm trying to decide between the DPP plate, or the C&H plate. C&H changed their design. Their new plate looks exactly like the DPP plate. The C&H plate is .070 thick, and the DPP is only 0.58 thick. C&H says everyone who has bought a DPP plate has had issues, and are now buying the C&H to replace the DPP plates. The C&H plate is double the cost....

Just take the red dot to a gunsmith and they can drill small holes in the back of the red dot for the little post sticking up. They will just do a countersink so they won’t drill all the way through but provide enough room for the post to sit in. Thats better then the added height with the adapter plate and/or sanding them down in the back on your side. That’s just what I feel I would do but I’m fine with the gun just stock they already come with awesome night sights as it is why would anyone need anything more. But that’s me

The real issue is that Holosun uses a modification of the official RMSc footprint. Their optics aren't cut for the rear lugs of the RMSc footprint or for the correct depth of front lugs, so they do not work on firearms that feature the correct RMSc footprint that has both front and rear lugs. We shouldn't have to use adaptor plates at all, if the manufacturer would just design their optic to fit a common footprint.

Did you by chance use the greendot 507k? Haven't found any forums or comments saying the HE507K GRX2 will fit with this plate as well. It has the same footprint, so we'll see. Adapter and optic are on the way regardless, so.

Poor dude getting so much heat lol. Ordered the titanium one. ☝️
This has been super helpful. Just picked up the 507k x2 and pumped to have the C&H adapter plate come in for it
Bro a “Fat wrench” torque wrench is only about $60. If you’re going to drop $500 on a pistol and another $2-300 on an optic, and then do your own gunsmithing. You should definitely invest in some basic smithing tools.
I bought the DPP plate and was impressed with the quality. I actually calipered it and it is the advertised .058" thickness. I installed with locktite and a torque driver and the front end kept lifting becoming loose after a day at the range. The marks I placed on the screws indicating the screws are not backing out. Not sure what exactly is going on but im returning it.

I’m looking forward putting red dot on hellcat pro just felt it this morning feels good either black or tan both of them nice colors but I think in my opinion all black looks 😍😍😍still gotta buy the gun and red dot we’ll see how it goes shouldn’t take too long
thank you so much for this video... i needed it for my hellcat
Good video man you always gone have people who think they no it all
The rattling from the striker is normal for this firearm - go do some research - plenty of info on it, since its a Striker fire pistol; however, I did replace the striker guide with a stainless steel unit that I picked up from lakelinellc and it works with the OEM striker. It was damn worth it vs the stock plastic striker guide that can easily break and broke on my during cleaning. Also you can get an more upgraded Titanium striker guide, upgraded striker pin, upgraded striker guide spring, upgraded seer spring and upgraded safety spring in one kit from mcarbo. Major upgrade to help with better trig pull and shorter reset.

It’s crazy that this small adapter plate cost almost $30. What a rip off. The manufacturer probably pushes out hundreds of these an hour. 😂😂😂 we the consumer are always ripped off by these companies it’s crazy
How has the DPP plate held up? I'm trying to decide between the DPP plate, or the C&H plate. C&H changed their design. Their new plate looks exactly like the DPP plate. The C&H plate is .070 thick, and the DPP is only 0.58 thick. C&H says everyone who has bought a DPP plate has had issues, and are now buying the C&H to replace the DPP plates. The C&H plate is double the cost....

Just take the red dot to a gunsmith and they can drill small holes in the back of the red dot for the little post sticking up. They will just do a countersink so they won’t drill all the way through but provide enough room for the post to sit in. Thats better then the added height with the adapter plate and/or sanding them down in the back on your side. That’s just what I feel I would do but I’m fine with the gun just stock they already come with awesome night sights as it is why would anyone need anything more. But that’s me

@brassmule
Жыл бұрын
The real issue is that Holosun uses a modification of the official RMSc footprint. Their optics aren't cut for the rear lugs of the RMSc footprint or for the correct depth of front lugs, so they do not work on firearms that feature the correct RMSc footprint that has both front and rear lugs. We shouldn't have to use adaptor plates at all, if the manufacturer would just design their optic to fit a common footprint.
