I just bought the Holosun SCS MOS-GR for my Glock 19, there are a few nice updates to the new ones. 1. It's now "shake to wake", no need to hit a button to turn it on. 2. Locktite is already applied to the screws it comes with. 3. 12-15 foot pounds of torque should be applied with mounting screws. I hope that helps, great updates to this optical site!

The one I have has the shake awake feature but it is auto brightness. You can hit the button once and it overrides it but it makes it max brightness for a bit. I will say that the auto brightness on this optic is the fastest and most accurate I've used to date. Thanks for the info on the one you got. Holosun is setting the bar for innovation and price lately.

@@southeastwhitetails I made a mistake in saying that after reading your comment, the ARE auto adjust like you said, which is very nice. I will take that part out of my comment from earlier, I didn't realize that nice feature, but you still adjust brightness with one quick hit of the button.

I bought this same set up a few months ago. Love it.

Awesome. Have you been able to kill the internal battery yet? With regular use I haven't had any issues and I really like the green reticle.

@@southeastwhitetails No issue with battery. It's odd how well it works without being in the sun. I carry this gun concealed in conjunction with my employment. So far, so good. I finally went to an optic since I'm old enough that my vision isn't what it once was. Sight alignment is so fast once you get used to it. (develop that muscle memory on the draw)

Thank you, this is just what I needed, I subscribed

Great sight on a great gun… I have the same set up. It is as tuff as the Glock and made out of titanium. Mine has been in my safe for up to a month, as it’s not my edc. Take it out and works great. It’s my first optic and I need more range time with it before I carry it…

It's actually a good idea to put a very thin layer of lube on the slide before installing the optic to avoid rust 🙏. Great video 📹 👍..

No the screws fit just fine. I have heard that not all screws from holosun are the same but I've got at least 20 holosun optics on pistols and never had an issue.

What if my Glock is inside of a fingerprint safe and it sits for a long time in the dark. If the SCS MOS is meant to always be on, is this gonna work properly since it sits so long in the dark?

That is a good question and I can only give you my experience here. I also don't know what you consider a long time. I left two of them, one on a g19 and one on a g47 in a safe for a month. When I opened the door to check, they were both on. Please take this as just my experience with a very small sample size.

My local sporting goods store carries Cross Breed holsters. This one converts between IWB and OWB.

How will this endure for every day concealed carry? Can I keep it on throughout the day? But the solar panels are under my shirt. In the moment of truth, I can't fiddle with turning the thing on.

Good question. I didn't trust it at first either. Did some tests where I left it in the safe for up to two weeks. It still was on when I took it out. Then I carried it iwb and never had issues. I left it on my night stand when I got home. No issues so far. I trust it now but understand if you don't.

@southeastwhitetails

4 ай бұрын

I don't even turn it off. It charges from both natural light and artificial light. So putting it on my night stand with the lamp on seems to keep it charged. When the lights are turned off and it gets dark the reticle adjusts the brightness to the lowest setting and that saves batteries. How long the internal battery lasts is something nobody could have tested yet since it hasn't been out for years. I've read everything from 7 to 10 years and even potentially forever. Nothing lasts forever so I don't believe that. Bottom line is that I trust it from my experience and I like the no plate needed for mos attachment. On mine the auto brightness adjustment is better than any other optic I've ever used. I really like this dot. But don't take advise on life saving equipment from someone on KZread. That's my advice 😆

I just took mine outside in the sun then walked into a utility closet with 0 light. I saw the reticle step down but it never went off just got really dim. I think that must be how it works. If you want to turn it off you should be able to cycle through the reticles and then the last click will turn it off. On mine long presses cycle reticle and one short press overrides the auto brightness and makes the reticle bright for a bit.

I got 1 from Amazon and the box was dirty and didn't have the Wright screws in the Wright bag and the battery would not charge I called Brandon at holsun he told me it is probably a return thay are sending me a new unit and I send them my old 1 I wated a year to afford it and holsun is great
