It really is a fantastic reticle, and I think it’s a perfect match for a PCC (pistol caliber carbine) like an MP5. …but at the same time, you still have the precision of the 2 MOA dot in the center for small targets in the distance.

The reason why is because the 65 MOA ring draws your eye in extremely fast and provides a huge aiming point for targets up close… This is a 2 MOA dot surrounded but a 65 MOA ring, and I love it. The first option is a simple 2 MOA ( minute of angle) dot, which is a good reticle option for a red dot sight…īut the thing that really sets this sight apart from other red dot sights in its class is the second reticle option, the holosun circle dot. In addition to that, the 503CU gives you 2 reticle options to switch between. This is a feature I really like because it preserves your battery life, but at the same time your optic is ready to go as soon as you grab your firearm. The battery on the 503CU will last for 50,000 hours (5 years), and it includes the Shake Awake feature, which means that your sight will automatically turn off after 10 minutes of non use and automatically turn on as soon as it senses motion. The lens on the 503CU is very clear without any of the greenish or bluish tint that you sometimes get on red dot sights, and you’re able to get a very clean sight picture. The sight housing is made from a high quality aluminum, and it’s waterproof in up to 1 meter of water, so it can handle rainy conditions without any problems… To start off with, the 503CU is a rugged little optic. I love the high quality level of their sights and the fact that they’re pretty affordable, and the 503CU is no different… If you’ve followed me for a long time, you know that I’m a huge fan of Holosun optics. The Holosun 503CU is my number 1 choice for the best MP5 optic. There are many other great options out there as well, but if you need a solid MP5 mount, these 4 options are enough to get you started on your search. So unlike with the Battle Steel mount, you won’t have to use an optic with an aimpoint micro footprint. …but instead of attaching directly to the sight like the Battle Steel mount, your optic is mounted in a single picatinny rail slot with a low mount. It can also give you an absolute co witness if you’re running a micro red dot sight… The Kley-Zion MP5 Mount – This is another great low profile MP5 mount.

Again, it’s a high quality option, and you’ll be able to mount practically any optic you choose. The MFI MP5 Mount – This is also an MP5 mount with a picatinny rail on it. It’s very high quality, and because it gives you a picatinny rail on top, you can pretty much mount any optic you choose. The B&T MP5 Mount – This is an MP5 mount with a picatinny rail on it. Now the MRO is a little bit bigger than most other micro red dot sights, so if you use it with this mount you get a lower ⅓ co witness with your iron sights.Įither way, this mount is a great option (depending on the optic you choose) because it keeps your sight mounted low. The second version is compatible with the Trijicon MRO. So it’s one of the lowest mounting options available for the MP5. With this mount you get an absolute co-witness with your iron sights. One version is for the aimpoint micro footprint which makes it compatible with all the aimpoint micro red dots, all the holosun micro red dots, the Sig Romeo 5, and many other red dot sights that use the aimpoint micro footprint. The Battle Steel MP5 Mount – This is a great mount if you intend to run a micro red dot sight on your MP5. Here’s a list of some of the most popular MP5 Mounts: Now some of the MP5 clones coming out now already have this as feature of the gun, but many will not, and if that’s the case for you, don’t worry because you have quite a few mount options to choose from. In my opinion, the best option when it comes to MP5 mounts is to have a picatinny rail welded on top… Let’s get started!
