    Thanks a ton for the video. Just got my Sentinel this morning, and was confused as hell looking in the manual at the 7.5 mm length, and looking at the baggie with 8.6 mm long screws. Now I can assemble it with confidence.

    Hey Devildog glad you got the right screws. Now, I just need to wait for your range report. After that... then maybe I’ll pull the trigger. Thanks all for your effort and information. 👍

    Thanks man. Well.. right after this vid I went and shot 500rds. It held zero great, was ok to sight in. Used the sight a bunch to manipulate slide too. But, out of the 500rds it only locked back maybe 10 times and had 1 ftf. Pistol was a little dry but lubed it 1/2 way and didn’t seem to help much. Wanna do more testing thou

    I use the manual version of the Swampfox Sentinel and using the recommended 8.6mm screws for the Hellcat and it fit's on mine just fine. My issue is with tweaking the red dot (Zeroing it in).... it's shit. Turn and turn and turn and the dot doesn't move at all. Then try to make an adjustment on the other (Either vertical or windage) and then it jumps all the way up or down, or from one side to the other. Seems like I can't just make a change to one, without making a minor tweak to the other at the same time. Overall, I like the sight, but thinking about contacting them to have it swapped out. I didn't buy directly from Swampfix though, I went through Optics World/Planet or something like that, so SF might not swap it out. And I don't know how Optics Planet is with exchanges. Haven't had the time to contact them yet about it.

    I'm looking for a laser bore site that will work with a 3" barrel to help zero this in. Any recommendations? Or an electronic laser practice system.

    Auto resolved on the new one? Mine completely shuts off in a dark room even with a weapon mounted flashlight. From dark room to light, also shuts off. Literally just got it! Did they send you a shipping label for the warranty exchange or did you have to pay? Company seems good, so hopefully they'll take care of this.
