I haven’t been to SHOT show in years. It seems the innovation that’s coming out at this year show is leaps and bounds of what’s it’s been. This is truly the golden era of guns and accessories.
I think after the supply issues of the pandemic there's definitely a drive to innovate more vs just having something to offer when materials were scarce
Because we will need them.
Great interview! Holosun really stepped up their game on the Raid and Iris for sure
Wow another Googlie eyed person in Love with HOLOSUN...What a shame, Amercian DOLLARS spent on Cheap Chinese Crap...
I remember Josh being in old videos for airsoft gi. Nice to see he’s moved up in the world
If the Iris doesn't get neutered before it's released. I'll be buying one of the first units you have for sale
Looking forward to the IRIS dropping. Definitely getting one
I've been running Holosun optics and lasers on most of my rifles for several years now. Been very pleased with their design, function, and performance.
Can’t wait for this to hit the market
I agree with Ryan regarding the switch. If that was offered separately I definitely would buy it. Very nice.
The Holosun and PSA booths were my favorite two booths. Not lying about the steps, including walking around the Venetian and other stops I averaged 12 miles a day over the week walking around the Shot Show according my my Galaxy watch.
An add on rail mount battery for the ‘pistol’ thermal would be a good idea for rifle use, especially in a piggyback or diving board configuration to help get on target in low light. Hog and predator control comes to mind.
that rear button switch is horrifically bad.
Outside of that, assuming we get the right power level, this thing will dominate the LAM market in a way we haven't seen yet.
That Pistol Thermo 🔥🔥🔥
HOLOSUN = Innovation
I love holosun products, I have 3, 507 models and they just work. Not one issue with them!
Leave it to holosun to be the one to finally bring a wml with high CRI!! I’ve been wishing someone would bring a 95+ CRI because I can’t bring myself to do emitter swaps on a Surefire 😅
I don't think it's 95 CRI (if someone would make a nichia based WML call us please!) but it's certainly 80+ from my eyes. Much higher than most tac lights.
I'm indifferent to the light, Streamlight already fills that notch. But, I'm very excited about the Iris.
i love the IR laser. what are the chances of you caring it and having one in stock? i have been waiting on the LE321 to be in stock for nearly a year now with no luck.
Anyone know the holosun reddot with built in night vision or thermal what can you expect in yards in pitch black for distance you can still make targets out in each model the only thing ive heard rumors is that the distance is pretty limited
So when is the actual release date on this? I need to make sure I can order 2 asap.
6:00:00.... add a white light and were golden!!
I’ll stick with my AGM, excited for raid though
I remember Josh. Dude used to work at AirsoftGi.
Can you make a LVPVO the integrates the same tech at the pisol ligjt and sight?
It should be mandatory that these are offered in FDE as well!
Prices?
cool
Man, I'm late! A Holosun DBAL?
At this point I ask myself why don't they use the wireless tech to let you have it display in a monocle or integrated into smart glasses so the wielder/wearer can reach around corners and sweep a room (in thermal) without exposing themselves? Seems like a better use of such tech to me, but I like what Holosun is doing and just ordered the DRS Thermal.
We're sure things are in the works!
That electronic mode selector button on the IRIS needs to be a switch just like the power level one. The button is the most ass-backwards, common sense-defying decision they could have gone with. Besides that it looks amazing. It would be hilarious if their switches perform better than the Modbutton Lite.
Anyone else hoping that Holosun enters into the NVG industry??? Would love to see a Holosun-style PVS14…
Never say never...
You can get a PVS-14 parrs kit for $4-700. I imagine that Holosun would use an NNVT tube.
You could build your own, and save big bucks.
You can get argon to purge it from any home wine making store.
the 800$ price point is that US market? so prob 1600-1800 Canada?
Alright now we need a holosun lpvo and some holosun night vision plz 🙏
Primary Arms optics are made in the same factory, so you kinda already have the LPVO.
Holosun has a LPVO
They should make a holster that can charge the red dot and thermal.
Are these just for placing on weapons?
He mentioned the DarqIndustries video was full power. I'm gathering the video of the IRIS with the lackluster illuminator performance was the civilian power version which is disappointing. Hopefully they figure out the FDA regs and take advantage of the VCSEL for the civilian power version. Otherwise it's all pointless.
Josh, the same guy in the video, has already assured people the final illuminator performance will not be disappointing.
Lets let em show of units that are closer to production before loosing our shit.
Brass facts thinks the battery may have just been low. He bought a fresh battery for the one at the booth. one of the days, and it looked much stronger. Fingers crossed
@@daedalus-N7beat me to it
Holosun if your reading Add levers to iris instead of the push button. Make the ir Illuminator close to a mawl performance. Make the white light a removable head & make the head threads & tailcap threads surefire/industry standard don’t release them till this stuff is done
Rgr, Bob. We’ll get right on that.
When’s iris gonna release 😮
Will it clear an FSB?
I wish holosun would give us some stats about the Illuminators output, range day vid left a lot to be desired
Brass Facts changed the battery and said it was way better
How about a laser illuminator without visible light? Something like Kiji from B.E. Meyers?
Let the guys at Holosun know and i'm sure they got things in the works.
I like how we’re supposed to be thankful for something as cheap as $1000 you know that’s well over $600 profit from manufacturing cost
And you know all,of this for certain? Telling a company how much they make on any given product is none of your business. If you can’t afford it, don’t play, but don’t make a fool out of yourself either.
Would be nice if they actually release products to public and not just tease at ShotShow. Absolutely love their red dots. Can NOT find any of their other products available anywhere. Everything is on back order. Hope they step up their game.
Who are they shipping them to? I can’t find it for sale anywhere.
Q2 release
Yall should make a laser slash light combo!
Some of us like the Olight type combo but a peq type body!!
@holosun needs to make lpvos with all this tech they have they would kill the market with one. Vortex who? 😆 🤣 😂
Also can you guys try to integrate your tech into some goggles??? Please!!!!
Q2? So like, Christmas 2024 or Fed 2025.
April, May, and June (Q2)
Holosun, how can you come out with a flash light that doesn't have IR when you're in the IR game ?
Someone needs to come out with a competitor to the Vampire that has a higher white light output.
@@squirreltakular9049 ikr perfect opportunity to pair with their IR offerings, I mean i still run a white/ir even tho my aiming module has IR light , i rather run the light on the flashlight
@@squirreltakular9049 SureFire has the patent on Vamp technology. So we will see what other companies do to innovate around those aspects.
Streamlight released the tlirv2 a couple of years ago. It's a pistol mountable white light, with ir illum and laser.
The problem with combining white light and ir is you'll always sacrifice white light output to make room for ir circuit.
For the love of all that is holy MAKE THE BUTTON ON THE BACK A FIRE BUTTON!
Put only switches on the IRIS!!!! No stupid buttons that you have to hold etc. Buttons + gloves = bad time.
$800
I thought is said “Shit show 2024”
Depending on your perspective of it all haha.
What if you guys just used an overseas reseller to sell your full power units to us civilians? Other companies are doing it
Bro it’s called color temperature. White light is warm yellowish, white, or cool bluish. Not difficult terms to learn
Colored lights arent really helpful with nv
No it's not but the tint on the current light is nice, using NV effectively also includes having a good white light.
Now is they could just come out with a pistol red dot that isn’t so clunky and chunky
😭 P R O M O S M
好！
Why do videos on products that we can not buy???
This is Shot Show. It showcases upcoming products. These will be available Q2 (April to June).
@@deangullberry5148 We are lucky if they can ship in Q2 2025. They don't even have the FDA approval. Eotech worked over a year to get FDA approval, still not approved.
@@deangullberry5148 Do we have confirmation on this release date? I'm really looking forward to the Holosun IRIS.
"eye safe frequencies." No.
Very obviously this guy knows nothing about the laser, 100 hours of runtime? You gotta be kidding me, especially when the VCSEL is designed with a useful output power, what a joke.
100 hours of continuous run time is good. That's two weeks, plus almost a full day.
I don't know of another LAM that exceeds that.
@@deangullberry5148
Of course that good, but that's not possible, it's just physics. Maybe on another planet.
