I've been thinking about getting this for my 12.5 build I'm currently doing and I think I'm going to wait for your full review to make my decision, as always best optic reviews on you tube.
I been watching your videos since the beginning. Awesome work still. Anytime I truly want a look through and need to know I come rite here. This channel has the best reviews for optics. Keep it going!!!!
This is awesome, thank you for reviewing this sight. You've basically gotten me onto both the Vortex Viper Gen II 1-6x and now this AEMS. I've had issues in the past with Eotechs and other red dots especially when weather is a problem. The fact that this sight has the clear lens covers not only helps keep water off the actual glass but protects it in general. I wonder if later on there will be some anti reflection version for the front cover. Also, a basic mount coming in with the order. 50k hours on dot version, solar panel, shake awake, small package, square glass. It's gotta be the best red dot sight on the market for the price.
I have a HOLOSUN 509T on my 5.7 x 28 pistol and have NO distortion problems except at the VERY top 1/8". I have this AEMS on my RUGER PC chassis carbine. BUT... as this article shows, the slot in the packing box was NO lower mount. So I'll wait a bit (as inflation drives the price higher) for that elusive lower mount. I got the AEMS for my PCC precisely because I liked my 509T so much. I god "spoiled" with the 509T's features, all of which are in the AEMS except the titanium body (the AEMS has a forged 7075 aluminum body) and the AEMS does have clear polymer lens covers which are great for a more continually exposed carbine red dot. **(I wonder, are Chinese fighter planes as advanced, comparatively speaking?)
If we dont hold onto something we truly believe. Then we would all be walking around with something on our face. There is 100% a reason why the Gen II came out So Quickly. Very similar to the UH-1... The Gen I And Gen II were just over a year between each other.. And now the 509T Gen I and Gen II were about the same. Coincidence? I think not. They rushed a product to market that wasnt optimized properly. Then when they come out with something better for the same price. Many of the previous owners probably upgraded. Sell twice the optics without trying.
Nice. Good review. I am always amazed how holosun can make such a good optic for the money. And their eotech style reticle is some much more crisp and clean than eotech themselves.
Hi there I was comparing between two AEMS VS 512C and I noticed 512c is less distortion Lens and easy access battery component so I picked 512c how you think?
Thanks for making this video! I was able to peek through the Holosun 510 from a store demo, and the reticle looked nice and clear with my astigmatism eyes. Do you think the AEMS would have the same clarity as the 510?
QD mount would be cool, but there will be aftermarket solutions. Itll also make it heavier. Eh, with 50k hours of battery life. Who really needs that?Just adds more weight and complexity.
My holosun is the best so far I'm a sucker that bought every other brand and figured the holosun would end up sold or in my parts drawer...so far the best it's bright enough for the wasteland and deceptively large view Chinese it may be but almost all are or just assumed to be American anyway
Thank you for this looking forward to Re-Pew This optic is $559.00 CND I would hope this would be amazing for the price. So far as in this unboxing it seems to fall short It looks like it still has the blooming center dot football shape not a deal breaker but that magnification might be Merry Christmas
@@fiveanddime3994 yeah my bad, I didn't do up the conersion. Don't worry though soon enough with the way my Country is printing money we'll have to convert it the other way. Lol
Could u do a comparison video with 510C? I prefer the style of 510c, but this one seems more robust.so probably I will buy the one with better FOV and clarity. Thank you 🙏
I do as well. I still get massive flak on my review of the 509T. But if it wasnt fucked from the factory. Why did the Gen II come out so soon to help FIX it???
@@CDOES I assume your correct, and the first version had clarity issues so they created the x2. I'd be curious how the 509t x2 compares to the ACRO p2.
Before I buy any holosun, I ask the store to open it so I can look at the glass and glue. If you have enough holosun stuff, you know why. I love their stuff, but qc isn't that great.
Agreed, my 509T has excessive adhesive on the lens. I thought it was a fluke but its a somewhat common occurrence on the other samples I've seen. There also seems to be an inconsistent level of lens distortion/blue tint on some models.
If you have that option I always suggest getting your hands and eyes on it before pulling the trigger. For all I know thats why the 509 I had was so rough. Whereas so many find nothing wrong with it.
Vortex Viper Gen II 1-6x. I was able to get one for 499 before discounts on optics planet. I've gone through almost all his videos and the Viper seems to be that best bang for your buck LPVO.
$500 max for jus tthe LPVO? If your patient, like mentioned before. The PST II. For LPVO and mount the RT-6 is a good option. Used optics open up a few different options.
I Won’t support China junk anymore. It’s Eotech or Aimpoint for me. Battle proven. Buy once, done. Love the reviews though. I bought my Kahles 1-6 because of your review. Battery issues, I took a gamble. So far so good. Glass is so clear I love it.
I cant say I blame you one bit. Especially for a go to firearm that your life will be depending on. The K16 had supremely nice glass for what it is. So lightweight too!
I don’t know how this channel is not bigger. Top 5 optics review channel on this site hands down.
Pew Pew! Maybe one day itll explode and Ill get there. But time will tell my friend.

No doubt, the best. ‘PewPew’
Should just get a 515 instead
Pew Pew! Thanks mate.
Love the detailed reviews, don’t mind the talking one bit! Big reason why I watch these! Thank you and Merry Christmas!

I appreciate you holding your ground on your opinion on the 509T. Not sure many would these days. Makes me trust your reviews a lot more. 👍

Pew Pew! Wait for the full RePew
Once the aftermarket starts supporting mounts for these of varied heights, I bet they will take off!
That is precisely whatll happen. As a small, light, completely concealed reflex, itll sell well no matter how good/bad it is.
Very Merry Christmas, C!
Ho Ho Ho!
Love your honesty on the “chunky milk” 509T
At least someone does! Thanks mate.
RePew coming soon? I’m needing something and debating on pulling the trigger but I want your full review first!
Reptilia Corp has a mount coming out soon for the AEMS.
Not sure when, but they do have pictures of it and probably still doing some T&E on it I bet.
Awesome
I forsee this being a very popular optic. So the aftermarket support will be strong for it in the future.
February 2022 talked with them a few days ago.
Best optic on market for price and what you get! 👍
Great features on that dot! Merry Christmas 👍
It definitely helps sell it. Ho Ho Ho!

Ho Ho Ho!
I have one. I love it. It's a cool little Borg Cube. 😄
Borg Cube is a good way of putting it lol
I would love to see a qd mount and a tool less battery change

It all depends on the price point. $500 and up are usually not Chinese. It all comes down to whats more import for you at the end.
Merry Christmas!
Ho Ho Ho!
Yes been waiting for this! Really want one. Please check it with a magnifier
Of course
I run mine with a Holosun 3x magnifier and it works great.
@@RONIN_SATS I have the same setup. They fit perfect together!
Thank you for this looking forward to Re-Pew
This optic is $559.00 CND I would hope this would be amazing for the price. So far as in this unboxing it seems to fall short
It looks like it still has the blooming center dot football shape not a deal breaker but that magnification might be
Merry Christmas
I snagged one for 399 usd before discounts online from optics planet.
@@Xinthisis that is in usd not canadain works out close to the same
They dont ship optics across the border
@@fiveanddime3994 yeah my bad, I didn't do up the conersion. Don't worry though soon enough with the way my Country is printing money we'll have to convert it the other way. Lol
Full repew coming soon! Merry Christmas

I like Holosun but I’m not sure how you compare a red dot to an Eotech…apples and oranges.
When the prices are climbing on Holosuns, can do it very easily. The same can be said for glass color, and distortion.
A little disappointed with the distortion at the top
Me too, but its so far fairly minimal. More testing is needed.
I saw you picked up the Tango-MSR on reddit, any ETA for the review? 😂
Not soon enough!
Merry Christmas everyone!!
Ho Ho Ho!
Merry Christmas
Ho Ho Ho!
Does this work well and compatible with the vortex 3x magnifier
Always great reviews! I'm curious if they fixed the distortion on the 509T with the 509t x2.
I do as well. I still get massive flak on my review of the 509T. But if it wasnt fucked from the factory. Why did the Gen II come out so soon to help FIX it???
@@CDOES I assume your correct, and the first version had clarity issues so they created the x2. I'd be curious how the 509t x2 compares to the ACRO p2.
AEMS MAX RePew when?
Get the green reticle one. Its much clearer in my opnion
The 512Gold is a better sight but with inflation up it makes sense to use less material like smaller glass.
I suppose a magnifier will expand the distortion.
Well find out soon enough!
Does this come with a low mount ?
cool if u can find one in green reticle
Gold would be Slickkkk

The 403R is the best deal by far!!!!
Awesome video
You saw a lot of low price lpvo scopes,which 1-6x under 500 do you think is the best.
Vortex Viper Gen II 1-6x. I was able to get one for 499 before discounts on optics planet. I've gone through almost all his videos and the Viper seems to be that best bang for your buck LPVO.

Why is it so hard to have a reflex sight without distortion?
I ask myself the same question all the time.
I see you lurking at the CZ 600
Aint lurking. Straight up trying to fucking snipe that shit!
CZ 600 review soon haha
Keep up the content man love your vids!
Hi, how do I send you something to review?
The best bet is thru my Patreon page, or thru Reddit for right now.
ADM makes mounts for them.
I really wanted to like this optic, but the distortion (on the one I bought at least) is terrible. Makes having a large window/FOV a complete waste.
I Won’t support China junk anymore. It’s Eotech or Aimpoint for me. Battle proven. Buy once, done. Love the reviews though. I bought my Kahles 1-6 because of your review. Battery issues, I took a gamble. So far so good. Glass is so clear I love it.

Pirate ship
No....Thank you....
Blue tint in 2022?
Nope.
Hah! Senseless distortion as well.
Merry Christmas!
