Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of the Mossberg MC2C Optics Ready handgun?

The Mossberg MC2C Optics Ready features a polymer frame, 416 stainless steel slide and barrel with DLC coating, a deep RMSc optics cut, three-dot night sights, and high capacity magazines (16+1 and 14+1). It's designed as an affordable and reliable option for everyday carry.

How does the Mossberg MC2C perform in terms of reliability and shooting comfort?

During testing, the MC2C demonstrated reliability with both FMJ and JHP ammunition. Shooters described it as a 'soft shooter' with comfortable recoil, potentially due to its low bore axis and thin profile, making it pleasant to shoot for its price point.

What is the optics mounting system on the Mossberg MC2C?

The MC2C features a deep RMSc (Reflex Mini Sight Compact) optics cut directly into the slide. This allows for mounting of micro red dot sights without the need for an adapter plate, and importantly, it retains the rear sight for co-witnessing.

What is the capacity of the Mossberg MC2C magazines?

The Mossberg MC2C typically comes with two magazines: one with a 16-round capacity and another flush-fit 14-round capacity magazine. This high capacity is a significant advantage for an EDC handgun in its class.

Is the Mossberg MC2C easy to disassemble for cleaning?

Yes, the MC2C has a unique disassembly process that does not require pulling the trigger. A takedown tap is pushed in and pulled down, allowing the striker assembly to be removed, which the presenter notes as a safety advantage.
