Enclosed sight from holosun
« on: June 12, 2022, 07:46:07 AM »
Anyone tried one of the AEMS models from holosun?

Looks like a bigger field of view than a traditional “red dot” like an ff3. I like the fact that it’s enclosed and looks a little more robust. It has two mount options….a co witness and a lower profile.

Experiences and thoughts?

It's a big optic. If your ok with the size it should be great.  I pre ordered 2 of the new eps enclosed optics they have coming out that fit rms footprint. Egw and sumtoy make mounts for them. I believe enclosed is the way to go.

I’ll take a look at those as well.
I was leaning on Swampfox Justice on a meadow creek but I want to look at these holosun and see what I think. May go that route with a drill/tap.

They are awesome optics. Been running the 507c and 508 on mine last fee years with zero issues. Wanna go to the enclosed emitters next season.

Holosun are solid optics. I have two 508ts. Love the sight and the functions of them. I prefer holosun rather than Burris fast fires

I have two HS510 C and a HS510C Green. Great sights!
I had Vortex Venom's but i prefer the Holosun HS510 much better.

Can't speak to their AEMS models but I love my Holosun 507k a lot. Haven't had experience with anything other than Burris and Holosun, and I prefer Holosun.

The only issue with Holosun is warranty. They don’t have the no-fault warranty than Burris and Vortex have. If you damage your Holosun, you are SOL.

Thanks for all the responses.
I actually looked through most quality sights made and I bought an Eotech 512.

Two opinions I have on the Eotech.
It has the best sight picture to me of any sight I looked through and it wasn’t even close.
It is the ugliest sight to look at sitting on a gun, but I’m not in a pageant and looking through the sight was most important.
