Dont worry they are not being discounted. Garmin wont allow it. If you saw $530 then shipping was $70! or it was a venmo only scamI knew that when i bought one.... The price would go down right after. I'm seeing them at 530.oo now...

I've got my name and phone number on most shooting gear I bring to the range. I left some stuff once, and it wasn't turned into Lost & Found, nor did anyone call me. Honor, like common sense, is no longer common.
Still chugging along with a LR -- some day when I get pizzed at it, I'll buy a Garmin or perhaps LR's new gizmo.
Back when I would shoot alot of big bore at the range I would wind up in a half daze at the end of a long session. This is when I would leave stuff! Now that I only have pea shooters like 6mm and .224 no more daze! Probably better for my brain too!
They are a long way from saturating the market. The talk we hear is a small fraction of the market.

I am very happy with my Xero C1 and have used it many times in practice and at matches. I had been using the small tripod that was included but decided on something a bit more secure. I made an adapter for the Seb NEO-X handle with the slot, and it works perfectly! It snaps easily in place, and can be turned, but stays in place.

In the past few months I have seen here and other places on the web probably 200 different DIY mounts and a few very pricey production verities, including the two I made one for bench mounting and another for gun mounting. The one I use the most is just setting the Garmin on the bench top left of the front rest or bipod pointed down range! But of all I have seen, I like Alex's the best, clean and slick.

I use a quick release mount like I use for my cameras. It makes for easy pop it on, pop it off.

It's a GLCON Shockproof EVA Hard Carrying Case, that I got on Amazon. Nice an compact to fit into my range bag.
Just by chance, I came across an unused soft case from one of my Escort traffic radars, perfect fit.

I got lucky after I had ordered a Lab Rader in May last year. (when the LRs were scarce) Still waiting in October, was give the option of switching my order to the Garmin. I took the plunge based on the fact they were compact and due to the complaints of folks who had a Lab Radar.
Very happy with my Garmin. Have owned a Shooting Chrony Beta, Cadwell, and last a Magnetospeed V3.
The Garmin tracked really well with my V3 when used simultaneously.

Exterior size: 7.2 x 3.9 x 1.9 inches; Interior size: 6.9 x 3.7 x 1.4 inches.
Works just fine.
The Garmin does not relay on a muzzle report to trigger.

Glue on a Apple air tag somewhere in the bipod. Or whatever Android offers as a tag. Throw a tag inside the box where you keep it.
I am having a hard time getting mine to miss a shot. it even picked up 3 shots fired at the berm to the right of my target at 600 yards to check the zero. It was pointed at my target.
thing just works great.
