I have both second hand and have found sighting them challenging. I understand that it could just be me as I have not removed all the variables, but what I've experienced is that I adjust, adjust, adjust, but my poi does not move, until it does. Have any of y'all found adjusting these red dots to be inconsistent?

I have one of each, wearing one right now.

I've not had problems zeroing them.  Remember, keep your head position consistent, keep the dot in the center of the window, etc., during zeroing.

Try to eliminate yourself; have a different shooter zero it, see if they have issues.  Go from there.

Swampfox does have awesome warranty service, of there is anything wrong with them.

Thanks. As far as I know, they are both zeroed so hopefully I won't need to mess with it much any more. I have learned that zeroing a red dot without loctite will get you nowhere

Yeah, the loctite is mandatory.  As recently as a couple weeks ago at a shoot, I heard "I found out why I wasn'nt hitting shit;  my mount was loose..."

Wish I had a dollar for every time...

I have just one pistol optic, the Justice I, which is also my first pistol optic.. Over time I found out issues with zero were just me adjusting to shooting with an optic.  For carry pistols, I always trained to point shoot at 15 yds and under so I had that to overcome.
