​@@frogmantacticalI say the SAME EXACT thing you had sad lol people just don't get it. Bravo!

I bought this exact model red dot because of this video and I’ll say I think it is better than the RMR for the simple fact that I don’t have to take the entire red dot off of the gun to change the battery and then resight it in. Huge benefit that I think is overlooked and under appreciated

The Best review I’ve seen on the 507C X2 and educational. You sir provided additional in others didn’t cover. I like the fact you clarified the “made in China” issue & history. I own 3 optics from Holosun and they work great. Holosun customer service is excellent also. For the price point I couldn’t ask for more. You got my 👍🏻 and my subscription & referral 😎

I got the 407c x2 the other day because of price. Real nice optic, good reviews. Solid. Thanks

Thank you for this review, cant wait to see how it holds up for you in testing. 🤙🏼

Holy smokes, I am digging the honesty and grittiness. Imma subscribe, just based off of that alone. Also, I have 5 variations of the MRDS optics from Holosun. They're well made, affordable, and are allowed for duty use.

I’m glad you found one that works for you. I just recently needed to get stronger prescription for my eyes. I have the Trijicon RM06 and this exact model, and in my opinion, they both work great. It’s definitely all with overall marksmanship.

Love and appreciate your honesty. Subscribed asap! Finally a lefty who knows the struggles in a righthanded world.....

Thx 🐸 man 😊appreciate your time explaining,

Jason hit every nail on the head with this review. I, too, got sucked into the lore of, "if it ain't Merican', it's shit!" while we watch a Trijicon RMR review on our Chinese phones. I picked up a HS507C-X2 Green off a Marketplace steal for brand new and proceeded to absolutely obliterate a 30 yard IPSC silhouette with the hostage target the size of my hand - doling out lasers and flipping it back and forth with a Boogeyman Customs LaLlorona G22 build that I built just to make the 9MM fanboys squirm. Chinese or what, this optic SLAPS, period. Don't forget, you might have $40,000 pano NVG's but you'll still get smoked in the Boogaloo by a dude with good cardio and a SKS with open sights who's been shooting that gun at the local gamelands since 2004.

As always great information big dawg God Bless you too

I had my gen 3 G19 slide milled by ATEi for my RMR. I've since changed the battery twice and have not needed to re-zero. I love the RMR. Having said that, I recently met someone at the range with HOLOSUN 507C-X2 ACSS Vulcan. Now I want one. With the RMR, if I'm squared up I will always find the dot. But one handed, leaning on an object, on my rear - then I may have to fish a little. This reticle is very interesting.

I love my holosun I have 3 of them and they have been rock solid for years .

Jason is a great guy. Trained with him a while back.

I just bought the HE (Elite) 407c x2 green 2moa dot mainly because it was on sale & cheaper than the others at $225 on Optics Planet (battery came pre-installed, with long, med & short screws) & I have a astigmatism. Love the auto dimming & Brightness, shake a wake, etc. I mounted it straight to $179 Dagger SW4 GatorMouth cut RMR milled Complete Slide for my G19X frame 🤟 Runs great. Just swapped out the backplates

I have had an RMR for year's. I have changed the battery twice. The impact shift was zero to minimal. That being said, I have been thinking about the Holosun. I like the battery tray and the solar idea and have zero issues with holosun aimpoint style dots on ARs

@justwannalivefree7034

Жыл бұрын

Just got one and fired some rounds with it. I'm glad I bought it. My only issue is with the auto brightness. I tried it in a low light setting and it works great until YOU are the one in the light trying to shoot something in a low lit area. The reticle gets too bright, and blocks out what you're aiming at. So I'm fine with a low-mid brightness setting. Other than that, I think it's a good buy

I bought the 507k X2 a year ago, the smaller model, and concur with everything you mentioned. The 507k doesn't have solar or other features, and it requires a modified RMR plate. I find level 5/6 to be best as well, otherwise the brightness overwhelms or gets lost against the target. Age too has affected my eyes, hence my new attraction to red dots over iron sights. I do find green easier on the eyes, especially outdoors. As you mentioned just easier to pick up. For me, the red setting tends to get lost against outdoor backgrounds. I do prefer the 32MOA over the 2MOA, - old eyes and I do not think it likely that I will need to engage targets much beyond 30 yards with a compact 9mm. The combo 32+2MOA is definitely information overload on the brain.

I love my 507c Gr acss vulcan reticle. One thing you didn't bring up that I've wondered about is the durability of the solar panel. If that baby takes a well placed impact what will the collateral damage be to the optic as a whole. So far I kinda like the auto brightness feature, but I will admit I haven't tried using one locked setting. Your right about going through your house and getting rid of everything not made in the U.S. You'd be naked as a jay bird sitting in an empty house. I look forward to your videos, thanks.

No it won't. It's covered by impact glass. You can drop it and throw it and it's not going to break. You'd have to purposefully smash it.

i've been running the407c green. so far i like it. i haven't had it out at any rough trainings yet though....only shot at indoor range.

I have one on my SS MR920 and love it.

I'm 2yrs in and 15,000rds on my G19 with a gen 1 507c using the RMR footprint. I will say that the older ones need the RMR SS base plate. I ran the same gun at a class in central CA that you taught for my group. Hope to see you in the range again soon man. Tonay says "hi".

Hell of good video!!!

Love my Holosun HS407K-X2 The 6 MOA Dot is better for my bad eyesight and I can turn it down brightness wise for a crisp sight. Being a direct fit for my P365xl was a good thing as well.

You are correct, the footprint is the same for the RMR and a lot of the holoson optics. I’ve recently switched to mostly holosons as well.

I been riding with Hilo son since the HS525GM, all the options are amazing I have 2. They changed the game and unquestionably reliable. Offer more value than other expensive brands. Holosun isn’t cheap anymore, it’s an established brand now. Expect to pay 60-80% of Trijicon and Leupold. Can’t go wrong either way.

I must say I agree with 98 % of what you said. Great video bud !

I quit caring where a piece of equipment comes from the day in 1967 when we were being overrun at Cam Hieu, Vietnam and I picked up a battle field AK to keep fighting.

Thanks for the info, i got one of those sights and was running the dot and the reticle. Seemed way to busy, was concerned that the dot alone was too small at 2 moa. but honestly its really bright so works well. 2moa on this optic is just fine.

this is a solid breakdown thank you sir! i recently picked one of these up I love it! I can sympathize with complaints that the auto feature tends to make the reticle too dim so i run it in manual mode. Looking into to it apparently the solar feature only works in auto mode which is a bummer, don't know if it's a limitation of the hardware or a design choice.

I got a 507 c x2 as well and i love it took some getting used to , but now thst i train with it and put tounds on it it helps me get shots on target fster than irons .

There are some eye exercises you can do to increase your visual acuity, even you don't have "young" eyes. Look up some videos- the exercises can yield results in a few weeks and it's worth the time. Thanks for the review, this helped me get off the fence for my next optic

Holosun Optics have really been super solid . The 509T-ACSS is my favorite optic for Pistols or top Hat mount on Carbine . The only reason why RMR is so good is the design patent . That's why they are so rugged and durable . Holosun Red dots are the only dots I use for the most part . I do have 1 RMR . I definitely favor the doughnut of death reticles and ACSS . Yeah I've never understood those idiots that say I only buy Made in USA . Yet they are rocking Made in China Phone , TV , and Laptop . That NIB blade looks pretty awesome bro .

I ditched the Vortex Viper after 6 years of service for this optic. The biggest issues with the Vortex is that it has manual locking screws that sit in front of the irons so you have to remove the dot to try and zero it or replace the battery, not to mention the adjustment screws are trash. It holds zero but getting it zeroed is a nightmare.

@GhostOperator91

5 ай бұрын

15 yard zero. But start with a laser bore sight first to get it really close and then take it to the range and make the remaining adjustments. Slaving it to your front sight will cause height over bore to be way off. And even then, these optics require you to learn height over bore at close range and long range so you can account for every round.

My 507xc on a Shadow Systems RX920 failed. Changed battery and still failed. Got to send it back to Holosun and it will be at least 30 days.

My opinion on the Chinese products… I’m not upset at the Chinese, I’m more upset that American made items aren’t made at the same quality, for the same features, for the same price. “AmEriCaN iS mAdE bEtTeR. ThAtS wHy yOu pAy mOrE.” Ok… but as the end user, made “better” does me no good if I can’t afford it. That’s a poor excuse for not wanting to compete price wise. Holosun is currently wiping the floor with Trijicon’s face. And if trijicon or any other American made optic wants to step their game up, they’ll need to maintain their quality, at a lower price point. Sure, American made would be cool. But it isn’t cool enough to me to spend another $200 more for. I’ll gladly stick with my Holosun 😂

What holster is that in your thumbnail of the video?

We cannot buy red dot in South Africa, it is too expensive. Love your videos - greetings from South Africa.

Do you carry the 507 or RMR?

Also I removed my rmr and changed battery zero maintained the same it all depends on how snug your cut or optic plate is

I wish holosun would make a model with bigger glass. If the new Swampfox justice had clicks for the adjustments, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. But, I've got be 407C on my Walther PDP, and it's good enough. I have an astigmatism, so I may end up trying a green dot to see if I can see it without the lightening bolts coming off of the dot.
