I found the solution to our problem. The mini o rings under the rmr plate are watch size O rings. The size is 3.6X1.7X0.8 ring. Unfortunately You have to buy a whole box of watch o rings to get the right size but it comes with plenty in that size if you lose them. I didn’t have any when I bought mine and the screws kept coming loose. The problem is now fixed and the screws are not backing out

Just passing on the information to pass to others.

Nice. I'll have to check my 502 to see if I'm missing them. I never put an optic back on after getting it back from FN due to the recall.

Orings? I’m not removing the optic to check, but I don’t remember orings.

Yep. Refer to page 46 of the owners manual here:

https://fnamerica.wpenginepowered.c.../01/8.524.80.01_FN502_Manual_04.21_KW_117.pdf

They are very small so I can see why most won't notice if they fall out when changing the plates.

I’m call FN to get a RMR replacement pack tomorrow. I ran my 502 hard and hit and it keep braking the post on the plate. With the o rings in it should stop that from happening again.

FN is sending a rmr replacement package and the right screws for the holosun 507c. I shouldn’t have any problem from here on out.

Great gun but needs some outside support with the optic plates.
