  • Both of these red dot sights have worked well for me on my P365XL, but the Holosun would be my choice without question if I had to choose just one. Exceptional build quality and feature packed at a ridiculously affordable price point.

    Just mounted the Romeo on my (California) P365, and I appreciate the simplicity of this sight. Simple, light, and fits like a glove. I adjusted the dot merely by looking down the sight path while at home just so I can see the dot move. Now that I have the dot's brightness adjusted and aligned to my sights I will take it to the range for the REAL test. I hope I am happy with it's performance, otherwise, I will just get something different. The two main draws for me regarding this sight was the name (Sig on a Sig!)... and the PRICE ($98.95)! Only time will tell...! 😊

      @@awesomedave8484 scratches are just something to use to sell these things. They both have anti reflective coatings on them, that coating is a thin layer of silicon nitride (most of them anyway, there’s a couple materials but that’s most common). That coating is what actually scratches and the base material really has nothing to do with how hard it is to scratch the coating. Also, be careful with what you clean them with, stay away from Walmart or sans club brand pre-moistened cleaning cloths (the little single use packets), I’m not sure if they have ammonia in them but they destroy coatings like they do. So yeah, don’t use scratching as a reason to decide, these RUclips people just repeat the bs they’re told by manufacturers. Glass just makes them heavier.

    Thanks for the useful information! After watching your video and several others (i.e. Sage Dynamics), I just ordered a 407k X2 in green for my P365XL. Best price I could find was $240 (delivered). For me, the 6 MOA is perfect for self defensive use, and the green seems to work better for me because of my astigmatism. I've got an RM06 (6.5 MOA) on my shotgun that has held up to several hundred rounds (including a few boxes of 3" magnums), but for the smaller P365XL, I think the 407k was the best choice. Now, I have to mount it and spend a few weeks and many rounds for training...

    Great review. I just picked up the 507k in green, before watching your video, and for almost all the reasons you mentioned. I spent the extra bit to have the flexibility of going dot to outer ring to a combo of the two. I did a lot of looking and really like the features you mentioned. You are spot on, the weight is negligible, the housing on Holosun is really nice, and for those of us getting older eyes, the dot really allows for easier pickup and sight to target alignment.

    Concur. Just went from a Romeo Zero on a 365XL to a 507K-X2. The Zero worked fine until the battery died about 4 months in. Bought the 507K . Couldn't find anyone with a 407K in stock. Bought it mostly because of the side battery port. Literally everything about 507K/407K is superior to the Zero. I have a Sig Romeo 4S on an AR pistol and the reticle set up has an almost identical circle dot setup. Pretty sure Holosun is the OEM for Sig RDS optics. I love the 365XL and the 507K actually does it justice. The 'Zero always felt kind of cheap. My guess is both RDS are manufactured in China. FWIW I put a Leopold DPP on my FN 509 T... so I buy American when I can. Great vid. Thanks.

    Having watched several video reviews of the Holosun MRD sights, I'm impressed with the Holosun Red dot sights. For the money you can't find a better MRD sight!! I really like the Holosun's circle dot combination as it helps us now old guys eyes. It allows you faster shots on target and follow up shots!! I'm waiting on a Holosun 507C VR2 now to be in stock at Midway.
    For the fans of Glock pistols, Strike Industries has an affordable slide already milled for an RMR style MRD for $200 in black. You will also need to order a firing pin channel liner or a complete upper parts kit and suppressor height night sights inorder to co-witness your sights and MRD in the lower 1/3. This option allows you to keep your original Glock slide. I'm sold on Holosun MRD's it's also affordable than the RMR. The money saved by buying the Holosun can go for money training ammo!!!

I know the rugged dependability and indestructible construction of the RMR is hard to beat, but it's hard to pull the trigger and spend more than double on the Trijicon when you can use the money to spend on the milling that needs to be done on most handguns including my 43x.

    I’ve got the Romeo Zero on my P365XL, here’s my take. I’ve been carrying a P320cRX so the Romeo Zero feels natural to me, I prefer the arched top of the Zero over the square top of the Holosun, I think the arched top provides a better sight picture. I also think the image on the Zero is slightly better (slightly clearer lens and slightly better dot clarity). I like the way the Zero is purpose built to match the P365 series so it looks great on the gun. The Holosun is built like a tank and would survive hard use or a drop, it has double the battery life and doesn’t need to be removed to change batteries, has more adjustments and buttons to move the brightness up or down (Zero you have to cycle through). There is just not much not to like about the Holosun. So I’m keeping my Romeo Zero but if it gives me any trouble (like poor battery life), Holosun 407 will be the replacement, (I’m not a fan of the 507’s 32moa circle reticle).

      I have a 507c for my M&P Compact 9, just ordered a 507c with the ACSS green reticle for my M&P 10 and have a 510c on my AR. I think Holosun is the best value out there. I don’t need combat build quality like Eotech, Trijicon or Leopold and I’m not willing to pay for it.

    I'm still evaluating and remain an open mind regarding optics versus good iron sights. I presently have the Romeo 1 Pro affixed on my P229 Legion. A pistol I love to shoot but is not my edc. I truly enjoy the experience. My edc is the P320 X Compact with the provided Sig X-Ray night sights. I'm still not convinced red dots are an answer for me. For me a lot can be said for the simplicity and reliability of irons. Especially in a defensive situation. I'm still, over a year later, working through it.
    Appreciate your time, efforts to inform and give opinion. Carry on!!!👍👍

    I really liked the Romeo Zero but the lens got so scratched up just from shooting I sent it back for a replacement. The replacement was more of the same so I literally just sent it back today. I’m just gonna buy either the Holosun 507k or the 407k.

  • @lmbear
    @lmbear Год назад

    Good video. The only thing I do not like about the Holosun is the integrated rear sight. Why did they not make it more like the Sig? I'll wait until they get it right, and then may replace my Sig Romeo Zero. The Sig red dot has worked just fine for me, but I still question the reliability and ruggedness on the Rome Zero. Time will only tell. I also wonder why Holosun only has a 6 moa dot? I prefer the 2-3 moa dot. Another reason I'll keep waiting. The Holosun is almost perfect, but not quite there yet.

    Both seem about the same height when measuring the exterior but the Romeo Zero seems a little bigger when you consider the height of the glass itself at the center of the arch. Also, the thick casing of the Holosun is not as aesthetically pleasing and seems like it could be a little distracting and blends less with the environment when you quickly attempt to find your target.
    Has that been anyone's experience, or can you share any comments regarding these issues?

    I own both, I'm a Sig guy, but the Holosun 407K is superior in almost every way. Word to those about to buy the Romeo Zero...you must adjust the WINDAGE FIRST, THEN THE ELEVATION! You run the risk of stripping the windage set screw if you tighten the Elevation screw first. Had to send mine back to Sig. Took weeks to get it back.

    • @RC-ed3sc
      @RC-ed3sc 2 года назад

      If I had read your comment a few months ago I might have saved myself some aggravation. I found that I couldn't adjust the windage on my wife's P365XL/RomeoZero combo after an elevation adjustment. Sig was great and replaced the Zero. My wife's eyesight is compromised. She had RK years ago and is developing a cataract, so the red dot flat revolutionized her shooting ability over iron sights. This past week, before discovering this vid, I switched the Zero for an HS407kx2. With the 6 MOA dot she makes 1" diameter dot targets disappear out to 20 yds. Using the Holosun 6 MOA she can't miss!

    Went with the Holosun 407k for my 365xl EDC. You can get the Holosun 407 around $224 but I saw that Sig is coming out with a Romeo Zero Elite which looks like the original Zero that got all the upgrades from the complaints. Interested to see how that one compares to the 407/507 Holosun.

    Poe, your video review was outstanding. I have the 365 XL as my carry gun of choice. I have had it for several months now and love it My eyes aren't what they used to be due to advancing years (>70.) I have a question for someone to answer. 1. 6MOA vs 3MOA which one to choose? It is pretty much a moot point because neither one is available right now everywhere. Again, love your content.

    Red dot newb. If cost didn't matter would you have the slide cut on a P365 and Holosun 407k or go with the new Springfield XD-S Mod 2 with a Crimson Trace CTS 1500 already installed? The Springfield def less capacity and also think the Crimson Trace has fewer options. About $400 compared to $550. Thanks.

    I have both on two P365XLs.. the Holosun is definitely more rugged, and prefer the 6 MOA dot, but if you compare the sight picture side by side...the Romeo Zero is much better with no distortion. Don't believe me - compare them both indoor in medium light conditions. I conclude the lower image quality of the 407 is attributed to the angle of the glass. Anyhoo...great review of these two micro sights. 👍

    Had 2 rome zero's and both had zero shifts and would adjust to the right regardless of which way you turned the screw. Sig told me to send them both in to be re centered and to not adjust the zero. I would get the holosun any day.

  • @miketyson8933
    @miketyson8933 Год назад

    ***News Flash*** You DON'T have to re-zero your Sig Romeo Zero or the new Elite, the adjustments stay saved in the little microchip. Surprised this guy didn't know that. I was shocked how big the MOA dot was on the 407k I may have to get the upgraded 507k but they didn't have green, I love my 508Titanium green dot on my Springfield Elite 10mm! These Holosun's really transforms a 10mm pistol into a mini sniper and that is no exaggeration at all!!! You can put a cantelope next to a bowling ball as a hostage situation at 100 yards and I am taking out that hostage taker with a dome shot! Even know I would have other better options for that kind of situation. You can't go wrong with either one I've owned BOTH of these, I have upgraded to the 507k green dot it has more shaking but a smaller more precise dot for really putting a bullet next to bullet hole the 507 is it, but what these pistols are for is quick on target no shaking to have the dot settle, the Holosun 407k with the 6 MOA is going to be a GREAT option! For the money the Sig Romeo Zero is great....AND YES.......THE WORST PART ABOUT BUYING HOLOSUN IS THAT THEY ARE CHINA MADE AND NORMALLY I WOULDN'T THINK THE CHINESE COULD MAKE SUCH A QUALITY OPTIC. I ALSO AM ROCKING THE PRIMARY ARMS LIGHTED CHEVRON ACSS ACQUISITION BUILT IN RANGE FINDER INSIDE THE LVPO, SIDE TO SIDE THE PRIMARY ARMS HAD A MUCH BETTER, CLEARER, MORE COLORFUL, LETTING IN MORE LIGHT THEN THE $2500 OPTICS. THEY JUST HAD A BIG SALE ON THE NEW 2023, GEN III BAD BOY AND WAS ABLE TO GET THE LIFTED SCOPE RINGS AND THE LVPO PRIMARY ARMS BOTH FOR $300!!!! I'VE SEEN LIFTED SCOPE RINGS BY SIG, OR VORTEX FOR $180!!! GOTTA SAVE MONEY WHEN YA CAN NOW A DAYS BUT I ABSOLUTELY HATE SUPPORTING ANYTHING CHINA. BUT FIREARMS OPTICS CAN'T BEAT IT

Wrote to Sig customer service and was sent a new replacement Romeo zero. 2nd new Romeo also broken, would not turn off , would not adjust brightness. Wrote back to Sig, sent New Romeo back and requested Original Iron back sight assembly as i will NEVER trust the romeo zero again while on my p365 edc. No back sight assembly available but put on Sig wait list. That said. 2 weeks ago, Botach had a huge shipment of about 100 Holosun 507k for sale on ebay! Bought 2 507k for $289 each! Score, thank god for Botach. Now i'll have a red dot back on my P365XL. Botach sold out in less than 24 hours. NO, i do not recommend Romeo Zero. Also, was sent a sheet metal protective cover with Replacement Romeo Zero. Cover was blued so expect rust issues under mount. Sig answer to protect plastic body incase you drop weapon. But when installed, increased overall weight, height, width. Not worth it, go for Holosun, if you find one.
