Title: Holosun or back with the faithful eotech
Post by: slave601 on March 04, 2021, 06:03:04 AM
I have a few fast fires on a few other back up guns but I'm rigging out a browning gold and I'm trying to decide between another eotech or the holosun 510. I love my eotech more than the fast fires but I'd also like to give the holosun a try but I'm very very sceptical of how tough they are and will they hold up against tss load recoil. Any input and advice is appreciated.

I've got eotech. Fastfires are terrible. My buddy uses holosun. Personally I'd get the holosun. I like it better and he's had no issues

I have experience with all of them.  Another you may want to look at is Aimpoint. Military uses them. They are tough, waterproof, (not water resistant), and function flawlessly. I have the Micro S-1.My godson was in the Army, an officer took a soldiers gun and threw it across the road, bounced off the pavement. He picked it up, it was dead on. They are tough....

Eotech is military tough also. Have no issues with them either, just a little bigger on the gun. They work flawlessly too.

I've got Holosuns on 2 of my turkey guns, put one on my 20 gauge first and loved it. I had an Eotech on my 12 gauge changed it out for the Holosun and definitely prefer it over the Eotech and have had zero issues.

Heard and read great things about these Red Dots. Wouldn't hesitate a bit on one. Best of luck...

I believe I would check the warranty before dropping that kind of money
