I wanna say thank you I thought mine was broke I bought a mr920 with one on there and could not get it to adjust and I didn't like the big ring and small one thank you for saving me some money after just dropping a ton on this mr920 lol
Thank you for your very informative video. Forgive me for making a small suggestion, but you tend to fidget with the device while you are talking. If you slowed your hands down a little and just showed each side of the device slowly, that would sure be helpful. Thank you, again, for the tutorial.
Not to my knowledge. However, I’ve heard that the technology required to engineer the green dots is more complicated and can attribute to them costing more. I don’t know enough about the tech behind them to confirm or deny this.
I know from him showing pic rail mount on this one it came with red dot but a lot of what I'm reading and seeing is holosun stopped shipping these with pic rail mount. guess they seen they could sell mounts and make more $$$$ you'd think for $310+ for red and $340+ for green dot they'd keep sending with pic rail mount as they started out doing but hey it's China what do you expect
That or they realized that 90% of people are using them on pistols and it was a waste of money to include something that’s not leaving the box. I’d buy it without the mount and email them “hey where’s my pic mount?”. I bet they’d send you one for free. Primary Arms did that for me. They had a promotion where you got a 30mm cantilever mount when you purchased an optic. I guess I missed the promotion so I called to inquire and they sent one to me. Idc if it’s Chinese or not, they have good glass and my Holosun hasn’t given me any issues after years of beating on it. If it works well and that’s what most people can afford then the American manufacturers need to learn to compete with that market.
$309. If your pistol is “optics ready” there are 2 screws that go through the middle of the optic near the emitter. If your pistol is not optics ready, you will need to have the slide cut to accommodate for this. It cost me $120 to have mine cut, recoated , greased, and the optic installed to the appropriate torque specs with lock tite.
There are dovetail mount options available where a mounting plate will incorporate the use of your rear sight dovetail. However they make the optic sit on top of the slide instead of having a channel milled into your slide for the optic. The higher you mount the optic, the harder it will be to zero.
I think someone else had this issue in the comments. I would assume they realized that the vast majority of consumers were installing them on pistols and they decided to not waste the money if they weren’t being utilized. However, I bet if emailed them they would possibly send you one for free.
@@rossgeller729 Their reputation has come a looooooong way. I’ve seen LEO using them and lots of folks comparing them to Trijicon and Aimpoint. They might not be battle proven but they’ve definitely been proven to be durable enough for the private sector.
Dude, hard to watch - this is a textbook on what not to do when demonstrating a product - really concerned about that auto setting in case of a zombie attack while inside my car...

Very cool video. Very informative.
Very detail information. Thank You

Will do
I missed out on the V2 and I'm kicking myself for not buying when it was available at! Gs 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
You can find it on Amazon, I’ve got one coming in tomorrow
Did it come with- or does it need mounting plates for a RMR milled slide?
It has the same mounting footprint as the RMR so you should not need an adapter plate
Is there a difference between the red and green color dot they sell? Other than obviously the color? Lol

@@yota_blaster5030 thank you!
green seems to work better 4 those of us who r old and have eye problems
Don’t this have the big circle and Chevron?
@P80 Ralph They really need to change the name for more difference otherwise they think they are both the same with 507c X2.

@@yota_blaster5030 thanks 4 the help
How do you turn on or adjust the shake awake
It’s automatic I believe. Idk read the instructions lol
Price? How does optic attach to pistol??

Back to small buttons because of trijicon lawsuit.
Uhhh...mine did not include a Picatinny rail! WTH?!!!

Did it come with the battery pre-installed?
Yes
@@yota_blaster5030 Ahh..mine did too. I thought that was bizarre. Anyway, its a great sight. Thanks for the reply. I enjoyed your video!
Mine did too.
did it come with screws to mount it?
Yes
The auto brightness' biggest failure point is at night w/weapon light. It doesnt know about the weapon light and doesn't adjust at all.
Because the solar is on top.
@@soevasive They could have put a light sensor facing forward instead of hooking into the solar panel on top....
@@vgl217 could've
Auto mode let’s you tune your low light brightness
Uhhhh no, no it does not
V2?
V2 buttons were too similar to the RMR so they had to change the design.
I cant believe it's made in China.
I can, most optics are or they source parts from China. Pretty sure almost all Vortex optics are made in China
You can’t live without made in China item no offense
Made in china doesn't have the best reputation but there are solid products for sure.

How about when you’re in an unlit hallway and your target is in a lit room? How’s that for textbook, dumba$$?
Slow down and stop mumbling...just sayin?
