The Sage Dynamics RUclips channel is extremely valuable
As in saves me tons of money valuable.
One of the top 10 firearms/training RUclips channels ever. The thing is though, a lot of us religiously watching Aarons videos are dedicated higher volume shooters who use our vacation time and bonus pay to take training classes. Consequently, we surround ourselves with people that do the same.
Him and Project Farm are the best channels on RUclips
former pilgrim Exactly. Like I need the VERY best bang for my buck. Instead of spending like 600 dollars on something I come here and can find something just about as good for about half that or 400 for example.
For the drop tests alone! 100%
The reviews we need but don’t deserve. Keep it up.
you all prolly dont care but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Fox Chaim Instablaster :)
@Enoch Cannon thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out atm.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Enoch Cannon It did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
@Fox Chaim no problem xD
3 years old. Still the most detailed review i can find.
Man can’t wait for the 507K review, that optic is what has me most excited this year.
Agreed!
Yes.
Zach_Gregory Hopefully it turns out good. It seems like the only quality option in that size profile.
Ryan West Is that the green dot version one??
@@a.d.c7941 the 507k doesn't have a green dot version, that I'm aware of.
Anyone else watching this for the third time while waiting for your 508t gen2 preorder to actually ship?
💯💯
I placed an order on optics planet this weekend, should ship out in a few weeks
When does it release? Debating between this and the 507c
@@ipwnu11b I think its out already but just back ordered everywhere
@@derrickaguirre833 It's been more than a few weeks since you posted.
Just received my 507c V2 today. First pistol RDS. Now time to train and get proficient. Thanks for the wealth of knowledge on RDS, and vidoes on how to better hone our skills.
Where did you order from? I've been backordered at optics planet for months.
I got mine at midway.
@@roul3688 ordering from optics planet was your only mistake.
@@roul3688 right off of amazon. typed in
Holosun and went to their page. There weren't many in stock though, might be back ordered now.
roul3688 Big Tex Outdoors had some for a while
As far as the strength of different shapes, yes, triangles are the strongest in compression. Circles are the strongest in tension. More important than the strength of the shape is directing forces around critical components. that's why the RMR is so durable. It directs the majority of impact forces around the lens - the most fragile component of the optic.
Aaron: (goes full auto)
Me: nice
Absolutely amazing optic for your firearms! I've put about 15k rds through all three of my 508T-x2 and have no issues at all! The dot and lens is very clean/crisp! I highly recommend this optic from Holosuns!
I went for the 407 v2 with the green dot and it is fantastic. Paying an extra $50 for the 507 just to have the circle dot didn't really interest me. And the extra $150 for the titanium 508 didn't seem worth the extra cost beccause this wont be on a duty gun. The quality is outstanding for a $240 optic.
I'm running the 407k 6 MOA dot on my wife's Sig P365XL and the 509T on my 4.5" PDP. We both love the 6 MOA on the XL and I'll be using my 509T PDP on a HAM hunt for Javelina in early '22. I'm grouping tight with the PDP at 50 yards! These Holosun RDS' have revolutionized accuracy for me and the wife. I do the battery change on my B-day and couldn't care less about irons.
I know this is an old comment but I got a 508T for $300 a few months ago shot RMR type 2s and this is a flat out better optic at almost half the price. The circle dot is awesome for cqb which i train alot in easier to track with the eyes for rapid fire
@@redeye8526 except that RMR Type 2s are available for 420ish all day right now.
5:14 really hits different during the 2021 ammo run...
As always, great review. I agree with you about the usefulness of the circle dot combination reticle for those who are new to red dot optics. Very helpful feature when learning how to acquire the dot. After six months with the circle dot combo, I switched to the 2 MOA dot and haven’t looked back!
YAY I been waiting for this one! It is like XMAS all over again!
I sent my 508T back to Holosun on the 4th of May using the prepaid label they sent me.
I had no problems with my 508T but the auto brightness setting that I don’t use anyway did not work.
Since the competition season was put on hold I figured I would go ahead and send it back to Holosun for repair.
Today, May 22 I received my return package from Holosun with a brand new 508T V2 inside.
What a great company! I know its a Chinese company but I can’t deny how good their optics are.
I have one Trijicon RMR and three Holosun’s. I like the Holosun’s better.
I know this is a year old, but I'm pretty sure its an American company with production in China. Like basically every company right now minus gun companies.
whiskey and sage dynamics doing and reviews of something i am thinking of buy, nice little friday.
I want that drop zone shirt.
so Aaron what do you want for your birthday?
Aaron: well Batteries would be good.
Have had mine on pre order for a few weeks, still waiting. Was thinking about the 509t instead but still debating it. It’s for Glock 10 MM MOS...Glad to see this awesome video on it
i dont know which one to choose either... 509T vs 508T i am leaning 509T but i dont know!!
I researched them both quite a bit. I'd stick with the 508t v1 or v2 green or red reticle ( I prefer green on pistol dots ) the 509t is great but id stick in on a smg like B&T apc9 or ghm9. 508tv2 is the best pistol dot. And the new 507k is the best for compacts
@@brighthought11 Why is 509t bad for pistols, the size? The base isn't any bigger than the 508t, and I was worried rain or dirt etc. might affect the 508t
@@edxlee never said it was bad. It just requires a different mounting footprint than the rmr cut the 508 shares with. Thats enough for me. If the elements are your concern the 509t is perfect im sure! 508t v2 looks better to me as well but thats subjective.
I ordered in Jan and still don't have it you're going to be waiting a bit
These things are going to sell like crazy when they become available!
GOT ONE AND LOVE IT 😭😭😭
I went to the party too early and have a 507c g1.
Aron's just killing my wallet. In order for me to upgrade to the 508t g2 i'll need another RMR cut pistol.....🤔😁!
I like my 507c enough that I just have to keep it!
Best Wishes Aron!
If the gun you have is a glock pattern, Brownells' RMR cut stripped slides are pretty good.
you could make the 507 an offset red dot on a rifle and get 508 for your already cut slide.
@@kurtkenehan8017 My rifle has a EOTEC.....😁
That’s rough, I haven’t bought one yet, looking at the 509
Great video! Thanks for doing one on the V2 so quickly.
Your reviews of RDS optics is my go to source for this info. Seems like this is a great option!
recently found your channel as I've been looking to make the switch to handgun rds. Needless to say there is a treasure trove of info on your channel. Love the statistics and science background to your logic. And not to be forgotten; you have great taste in intro music.
Fantastic deal for the money and a proper duty rated optic. Trijicon has long leaned on the fact that they have military contracts and have used this as a crutch for those who love the term “military grade” but don’t actually understand what that means. Considering features, the trijicon RMR is so bare bones that it could be considered archaic at this point. You have to remove the optic and re-zero to change the battery, the bottom of the optic is open to the elements and without a sealing plate the battery just grounds on the frame of the optic and thus was part of the reason it had issues with flicking early on. It only has one reticle and it isn’t great for those with astigmatism. The model with a 3.25 MOA dot looks more like a 8 MOA star to me with my moderate astigmatism. And the optic doesn’t have a solar failsafe. The holosun, on the other hand, has years longer battery life, a solar failsafe, auto adjust brightness with a manual lockout, the batter changes out of the side through a trap door with one flat head screw, the optic is waterproof and sealed, it has the same footprint as the RMR so slide comparability is there and it’s cheaper. It’s literally a no brainer. Trijicon fails to adapt to the times and can no longer lean on its name now that holosun has improved their design for them and made it for lower cost.
Awesome review! I preordered one about a week and half ago so I’m glad to see the review do so well. BTW I love the shirt and want one! Aaron, you are one of 4 channels I follow but definitely my favorite for sure
Just ordered a 407cv2 myself cant wait to try it out
Got mine a month ago. Easy to mount. Haven’t been able to shoot with it but I have been practicing sight acquisition.
@@jamesraab9004 optics planet has mine on back order but hopefully ranges open back up by the time it comes in so I can run it. It will be my first pistol dot
Excellent content as always. Out of curiosity, would you consider doing a designated review of the selector backplate? Obviously it won’t be something that practically applies to very many viewers, but I’m sure many of us would still be interested to hear your thoughts - Process for acquiring one, if it truly is just a range toy or if you can think of any real practical applications where you’d want to have the FA option, how it runs with comps, etc. Just a suggestion/request!
More on topic for this video - I purchased the 508T V1 based on your and other recommendations and of course two months later they announced the V2 with the side-loading battery tray. Oh well though, I’ll just wait the two or three years until I need to change the first battery in my V1 and swap it out for the V2 at that time 🤘
You are by far the best optic review chanel out there! Love your videos.
Man u just sold me on this optic. Was debating between this or the rmr. Glad i watched this video.
I've been trying to get one of these things for way too long now and cant find them. Thanks for the review, now i want one even more.... and still cant find one
God bless you, your knowledge, and your willingness to share it lol hands down the best channel on RUclips for reviews and testing
Was fairly hesitant that these could be better than an RMR...thanks for the testing. Looks like a definite contender.
Very thorough review, just ordered one. Thank you.
You helped me decide which one from 407 to 509 and i think this one wins. You also get a sub 👌🏽
Finally a review on this optic I purchased one 2 weeks ago still waiting 1-3 months to ship .....
Only reason I bought my first red dot . Was because of you, so thank you. I’ve never looked back
Thanks for the informational video, Brother. I'm now getting into pistol RDS optics after years of rifle and sub gun RDS use. It's definitely a step up from Trijicon HD irons for my old retired eyes.
I love it when i go to RUclips to look up something and this guy has a review of it
Holosun is the benchmark right now. I have the HE508T v1, but I'm loving the bigger buttons.
After watching the first Holosun video and purchasing one for CCW, I honestly was expecting to see the glass break after those drop tests. Seems like it improved in every aspect.
One of these days one of these manufacturers (lets be honest, probably Holosun) are going to realize Trijicons patented arch on their red dots are obtainable by putting threaded holes on top of the body on the sides and allowing for "sacrificial screws" to be placed, enabling the creation of the arch with the screw heads for the drop testing. That'll be a fun day
Holosun could make an indestructible red dot with 40,000,000 hours battery life and a $30 price tag.
I still wouldn’t buy it after what China has done to the US.

Or is it simply to hide your weak chin 🤔
Been waiting on this one. Solid review Aaron. Definitely putting one on my p10c
Looking forward to the 10K round review.
Correction the tool is used for windage and elevation also mounting screws the buttons are used to change the features
I recently bought this before you did a review, based on your v1 review. Unfortunately they informed me that the shipping won’t be for a month to 3. But got the 407a3 as an interim.
The whole wuhan flu has messed up alot of these companies. I planned on getting a v2 but was tired of waiting so picked up the v1. Also had 2x 1-8x PA platinum raptors on order and they are taking too long, refund & got Acog TA31 acss green reticle and 1-8x Trijicon Accupower red reticle. Couldent be happier
iF i ordered it when the company had put on their site that it was in stock and just recently let me know that they’re out of stock. They had me standby almost a week before they let me know lol.
Just ordered my 508T v2 yesterday, first red dot for my first pistol, got an email today saying 1-3 months to restock. Really hoping it gets here sooner can’t wait to try it out
Lowkey Tactical ordered mines beginning of March can’t wait any longer 😭😭😭😭
Before I watch I’m just gonna say I already ordered and am waiting on this dot currently, so I really hope this is a positive review.
I have one of these on the way, hopefully better luck with it than the original 508T which seemingly died only 2 months into using it. I am waiting for it to come back from Holosun.
Lemon. Mines perfect since February. If it went out id defintely trade for the v2
Had problems with my 508v1 also. It died and lost zero. H.S. being awesome is sending me a V2 as well. I should've kept my vetted 507c, but I sold it after I got the 508 like a fool and I regret it.
@@shadowoffair09 I have a 508T which has flickering problems. Had it for less than 2 weeks. Did you ask holosun to replace it with a V2 or are they doing it standard?
Great review! Phenomenal detail and concise
I have both the 507C and 508T version 1s after watching your reviews. Got a hell of a deal on both of them. I've been waiting for the 508Tv2 review and will be my next order to replace my 507C where it will go to be used as a canted offset optic on my AR15
👍🏾Big thanks for dropping this review because I was just about to buy the 508 gen1.
I finally got mine... Took forever to come back in stock... I love this thing!
Been waiting for your review of this. Glad to hear it lives up to your standards. It passed your drop test with flying colors. Great content as usual!
Everyone of the youtube channels ive watched has mentioned you. You've got a REGISTERED autosear. Im jealous as hell because science matters to me. Keep it up brother
Subbed any guy that drops his gun 4 times for the sake of testing for everyone deserves at least a sub! I’d give him 100 if I could!
@Aaron, I have one explanation of why there’s a gen 2. I purchased one of the gen 1 versions and it had intermittent power issues right out of the box. When mounting the optic just slightly past snug, the optic would power off. I would then need to loosen one of the mounting screws to get the optic to power back on. Did Holosun replace it? Yes they did. Is there support team awesome to deal with? Absolutely. However, I am almost certain that I was not the first or last consumer that had issues with the gen 1.
I have both the red and green 508 Gen-1's and havent had a problem with either. Had them since January roughly and no issues. Reliable tack drivers.
I have the 507C and 508T v1s and no issues with either
Thanks Aaron for the great information as usual. Still amazed youre only at around 100k subs. Keep it up!
Thanks for your continued testing! You help make my decision easier.
I wonder how Holosun will be affected by current events in Asia?
I've been told by Kenzies optics that they are business as usual
Everyone in the optics industry will be effected by COVID, just a matter of in which way and how much
I’ve been waiting on mine for about 3 months from Optics Planet. That’s not business as usual.
@@briterobert that's what you get for ordering from Optics Planet. Do your research on them
Optics planet is hot garbage 🗑
I bought a top tier Holosun red dot as I really liked some of the innovative features. Unfortunately it died shortly after purchase before I even got a chance to shoot with it. I returned it for repair eight months ago and it has still not been returned to me. When they work they are great but they fail far more than US made products and the warranty support is terrible
I have one on order for my AKv... excited, but I'm sure I'll be waiting a while.
I'm excited to see them produce the BLPS, because f- batteries.
Can’t wait for these to get to distributors, just got done ordering the finishing pieces to a new carry pistol. This will be going on top as my first pistol optic
Aaron Cowan... Holosun... automatic 👍 Thanks for all you do brother 🇺🇸
I’ve had the V2 for about a month and a half now as Holosun was so generous to upgrade my RMA from a gen 1 to gen 2 and I absolutely LOVE the gen 2 even more so than the gen 1 now. One thing that wasn’t talked about it and I’m not sure if you noticed but when using a light, unlike other optics including the RMR, the dot DOES NOT lose any intensity no matter what setting it’s on. I’m not sure how they did that but it’s one of the first things I noticed about the gen2. Love it.
@sagedynamics
Aaron, what is your opinion, Red vs. Green Dot on this optic?
I was not sure if I wanted this optic but after watching this review I'm going to move forward and get one.
I appreciate your perspective on why and how you do your testing on optics!
These mrd videos are truly appreciated. Thanks brother and God Bless.
This is an excellent channel! Thank you for the testing and information. This is exactly what I was looking for.
I love your reviews. I know its not a duty optic, but itd be awesome if you reviewed the holosun 507k once it finally ships, it looks like it could be a really solid optic for daily carry
Good stuff, thanks for your feedback. I've been happy with the RMR and due to the durability had no reason to consider something else. I'll be adding a RDS to my P10 soon and will take a look at this version.
It seems the newer HOLOSUN red dots have a LOT of features not found in other red dot sights. Yeah, some red dots have SOME of these features but not all of them together in one sight.
I appreciate your thorough review. I'm sold!
There is a little bit of overhang on each side when mounted to Glock19 or sth of similar width, do you reckon that would be a problem? i.e. catching on pants or somewhere
Not an issue I’m aware of.
I understand the Glock MOS optic mounting system has its issue with maintaining the optics securely and after some firing they loosen up. I believe this is because the MOS plates are just to thin to give the mounting screws enough threads to bite into. I would like to know if this was corrected with the M&P 2.0 CORE. I can't see the purpose of the plastic spacers on the CORE other than acting as a washer of some kind to help prevent the optic from loosening and a guide to make sure you put the screws in the right holes but is there enough threads and metal on the M&P 2.0 CORE to hold your red dot so it doesn't loosen after 2 to 3 thousands rounds?
Great vid! Placed an order for one after watching. On the hunt for good suppressor sights... I'm thinking Ameriglo GL-812. What are you using or which do you recommend?
Hey Aaron, I broke one of these!
I just shoot a lot at the range no smashing on wood to cock the gun. Just target shooting at range.
The glass broke loose.
we will see how the warranty works.
Aaron is not arrogant or condescending to viewers. He shoots one HELL of a lot of rounds and through experience, knows what he is doing. Thanks for the review. I own a 508T Vers. 1 on a Zev\\ built on a G19 Gen3 Gripframe. I am VERY positive on Holosun in my personal experience.
Does your set up with the Glock and the 508T V2 still fit in a Safariland RDS holster?
Good question.... I had the same one in mind. But it seems to be answered at 00:16 of the video.
Mozdrak thanks for pointing that out. I must have missed that when I was first watching the video. I guess multitasking isn’t a strong suit. 😂
Buy a gerber dime to keep in your pocket. The blunt edge of the file works to adjust the turrets on the Holosuns. I forgot the wrench the other day and thought I was going to have to drive home. Fortunately I remembered I had my Dime and saved me.
I'm just an old handgunner. Thought I would like to move up to a Red Dot. Excellent review. Just what I was looking for. Liked and subbed.
I would love to see the 10k update
Just picked one up from my local shop. Can’t wait to test it out.
What is your local shop
Aaron spends $200 every year on his birthday through 50 optic battery changes lol.
Very Cool Dot sight from Holosun !!!!!!!!! Thanks for showing this Red Dot sight , Aaron !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
red dot are becoming the normal these days but, the biggest issue i have with these pistol optics is not having a standard mounting system.
Manufacturers please put a small low profile pic rail on new gen models handguns and its done.
"The thing I love about standards is how many there are to choose from." Jokes aside, RMR cut is a standard already as evidenced by these sights using it.
What’s size back up irons are those. I’m looking and doing a custom mill for my M&P with this sight. But the company I’m looking at doing the milling is wanting 120$ for sights I could buy for 65$. But not sure on height needed
If you haven't already sent in your slide, check out DP Custom Works. I just shipped mine out Friday morning.
I ordered my HE508T-GR V2 a few days ago because I've got several Holosun optics and I love them. Not to say my Trijicon and Vortex optics aren't great as well but I really wanted to add this one into my rotation. Thanks for the video Aaron! Keep up the great work! 👍👌
I know your comment was 3 years ago, but I'm just watching these videos. Did you ever get the Halosun is so, how does it stack up to your Trijicon RMR? Which one do you recommend?
Thanms.
You know I haven't heard your favorite word "pedantic" in quite a while. But still great content as is the norm.
this channel is a gem in the firearms industry.
I'm a new subscriber. Can you explain that thing you do when you reload that looks like you're assisting you empty mag eject faster?
Aaron, one of the biggest drivers of the x2 variants is the lockout. Holosun was getting comments from users saying accidental brightness button pushes were occurring even on holstered weapons and they didn't want to have a situation where just certain models could be locked out... so thats why all the X2 releases.
K
Hows the parallax on this? Does it stay true to the target or does it move with your head? I also notice on the 509t as the reticle moves around to the sides away from the center,there's alot of distortion,does the 508t do that as well? Im curious because im torn between the 508t and Trijicon RMR type 2.
That's not true about a tool to change from Shake awake how long it stays on only thing the tool is for is mounting the optic and elevation + windage you use the two buttons on the side press and hold them down for different functions check the owner's manual
500 ROUND BURN DOWN 😭 THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE
I have the 508 V1. I love it but the battery dies every three(ish) months. I live in the desert and have to keep it on the highest setting during the day. I’ve got the V2 green in order. I’ve been told green doesn’t use as much battery juice. Hopefully that’s correct.
The only thing is the Titanium is heavier than aluminum and so they list this as "2oz." I don't know what it really weights since they didn't list grams and I doubt it weights 2.00oz, but their 507cV2 is listed as "1.5oz" due to being 7075. Mass really matters as slowing down the slide velocity effects reliability.
Mine has a circular reticle that's rotated to the right by about 4 degrees, and that's a common issue apparently.
Apparently that's considered "in-spec" by Holosun
I have this optic now and a cr precision slide. How should I measure to set up the lower 1/3rd iron sights? Am I measure from the bottom of the cut for the iron. Or am I measuring from flush area of the cut to the slide?
I hate to ask this question, but I’m going to go for it anyway. I can afford one optic for my g19. It is my carry, competition, etc gun. It is my only handgun. I’ve done the research and My choices is the Rmr or the 508t. From handling both, what do you recommend for overall civilian use? Thank you for the content and keep it up 🤘
They both have the same footprint but the 508 doesn’t make you take it off (And therefore re-zero) to change the batteries plus it has shake away, solar failsafe, 2 reticle options, better battery life, and is cheaper
