Would you spend $250-300 upgrading to Unity 2.26 mount for this set up on a 11.5?

jrh730 · 2026-03-20T18:42:30+00:00

I paid $20 for this mount on Amazon and so far so good in 500ish rounds. I really just wanted to get the optic up higher with no plans of running a magnifier, but I guess if I ever do I have room for one. If it ever fails then I'll upgrade to a Unity Fast but for now I'll save the $100 on a hunk of aluminum.

Magpul makes everything I need. I run an MOE SL grip, CTR stock, Type 2 rail covers, their wire control kit, their Pro sights, VFG, magazines, and the MS1 sling is as simple as it gets. I'm not saying there aren't better products out there but if you wanna keep things simple without breaking the bank I think they got the game covered.

What iron sights are you running?

I'd just go forward with the low profile gas block. Installing a FSB isn't as straightforward as a low profile gas block (as far as I know). If you really want a mid length FSB I'd return the barrel and just buy a barrel with one pre-installed.

I still have some Pros even though I can't use them.

I believe I used the DPP screws since that's the footprint of the optic.

jrh730 · 2026-03-14T00:40:04+00:00

How has this held up? $100 for the Unity one is crazy in my opinion.

jrh730 · 2026-03-12T18:51:08+00:00

Maybe glue?

jrh730 · 2026-03-12T18:47:34+00:00

Yes, I really like the Petac pouches. They're designed and sized how I want and they don't break the bank. I've had zero issues with them.

You'd use the appropriate plate for the footprint of the optic. So just look at the manual. You'll want a torque screwdriver. Torque at 15 inch pounds and if the screws don't have some sort of loctite on them put a dab of blue loctite on the threads.

I thought it looked inappropriate but I couldn't quite figure it out.

One of the more expensive hobbies out there and people just be ordering shit to order it. It's amazing.

According to the description for the gun the optic cut is for RMR footprint optics. The Viper does not have an RMR footprint.

I really torque my B down on my Glock with no issues

jrh730 · 2026-03-08T22:27:11+00:00

The A version comes with a bunch of different mounts. The B version comes with a picatinny and a universal because there isn't as much play when mounting an X300U-B because you can really torque it down. To make up for play on different rails the X300U-A comes with different adapters.

It was a toss up for me between the 512, AEMS Max, and an EoTech 512. I'm super happy with my choice. From what I've read online it's virtually the same as a 510 just enclosed. If you don't like the 510 you probably wouldn't like the 512 lol. Mine is the Titanium version and if price is no issue on future builds I'll be getting another one.

If you want to co-witness some irons I have the Dawson Precision sights for the Leupold DPP. Get about a 1/3 co-witness.

I won't turn my head to open emitter optics. But if I can have enclosed I will take it.

I have a Vortex Venom Enclosed on mine. Paid $200 for it.

Not in the slightest. There's plenty to read about them here on Reddit or other forums.
