The Holosun HS510C Green Dot Sight in Flat Dark Earth (HS510C-GR-FDE) is a 1x open reflex green dot sight with Holosun's Multi-Reticle System — a 2 MOA green dot, a 65 MOA circle, or both together as a circle-dot — behind a 0.91 × 1.26 in (23 × 32 mm) window, on an integrated quick-detach Picatinny mount. The housing is finished in Flat Dark Earth to match FDE furniture.
Solar Failsafe supplements the side-loading CR2032 with light, and Shake Awake puts the optic to sleep when it is still and wakes it on movement, for up to 50,000 hours of runtime. A titanium protective hood shields the emitter, and the aluminium housing is rated IP67 and tested to 5000G of vibration.
How It Compares
The same optic with a red reticle is the HS510C red dot sight in Flat Dark Earth, and in black it is the HS510C red dot sight in Black. For a green reticle in a black housing, see the HE510C green dot sight. Browse all green dot sights and shotgun red dot sights, or read our comparison of green and red reticles.

Frequently Asked Questions
What reticle options does the Holosun HS510C Green Dot Sight in Flat Dark Earth have?
The Holosun HS510C Green Dot Sight in Flat Dark Earth uses the Multi-Reticle System, which switches between a 2 MOA green dot on its own, a 65 MOA circle on its own, and both together as a circle-dot. The 65 MOA circle is the fast option for close shotgun and carbine work, and the 2 MOA dot is the precise one.
Is the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE suitable for a shotgun?
Yes. The Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE has an integrated quick-detach Picatinny mount, an open window that keeps both eyes working, and a 65 MOA circle that suits fast target pick-up, which is why the HS510C family is a common choice for practical shotgun in the UK. It needs a Picatinny rail section on the receiver or rib.
How long does the battery last on the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE?
The Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE runs up to 50,000 hours on a single CR2032 at brightness setting 6. Solar Failsafe adds supplemental power in daylight and will keep the sight running if the cell fails, and Shake Awake shuts the reticle off when the gun is still.
Will the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE co-witness with AR-pattern iron sights?
Yes. The integrated quick-detach mount on the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE sets the dot at 1.41 in (35.8 mm), Holosun's stated co-witness dot height, so AR-height iron sights line up in the window on a standard flat-top receiver.
Is the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE night-vision compatible?
Yes. Two of the twelve brightness settings on the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE are night-vision compatible, so the reticle can be dimmed far enough to use behind a night vision device.
Can I change the battery on the Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE without losing zero?
Yes. The Holosun HS510C-GR-FDE uses a side-loading CR2032 tray, so the cell can be replaced with the optic still mounted and zeroed.
