Of course they can be ‘problematic’ possibly after all blocking light, well, blocks light DUh! – but a closed emitter sight with glass blocked or obscured with the same stuff can be ‘problematic’ possibly also for vision through the sight. But is it the ‘doom and gloom’ thing in the ‘the sky will fall if you have an open emitter sight’ manner the doom sayers say? No, so why ‘No’? Cause it just doesn’t work that way to be as ‘problematic’ as the doom sayers think, and if it does a quick wipe or blow to clear it like one would the glass on an open or closed emitter sight.

besides, I got my HE510C-GR for the rifles I keep on line all the time and 7 were free and a 5 I got for 75% off MSRP. So yeah, I’m gonna use them.

In reply to .40 cal Booger. Open emitters can be problematic in rain and snow. Really fine dust can also cause issues.

I got away from using ‘tube’ design dot sights. I’ve swapped them all out for the Holosun HE510C-GR on my rifles with dot sights. The magnifiers I have on some rifles work fine with them too. Its been a good choice for me to do this move away from ‘tube’ design dot sights. At first I only did it on the rifles my wife likes to use, she was partial to the dot sights on her pistols and wanted the same for rifles and did not like the ‘eye box’ thing with tubed dot sights when she was in motion. Then I fired the rifles she uses with the Holosun HE510C-GR on them, liked it more than the tried and true tubed sights I had been using and my responsiveness time in moving from target to target improved as did my accuracy when in motion. So I switched over to using the Holosun HE510C-GR.
