Does anyone have any experience with either The Holosun 507C X2 vs. the HE508T X2? Seems like the only difference is the 508 has a titanium body, flat top and blacked out logo. Functionally they seem the same. Wondering if the $60 increase in price for the 508 is worth it in terms of durability, etc.?
I've only used the the 507C X2, have you read the Holosun thread yet? https://pistol-forum.com/showthread....l-optic-threadOriginally Posted by OldManClemens
Will check it out. Thanks.

Does the above offend? If you have paid to be here, you can click here to put it in context.
What are you interested in specifically? I've watched this several times.
Wrong thread. Forgot there was a split off.
Will repost in the other thread.
Hopefully a shitty mod will delete from here.

Just to reiterate since “503” is too short of a search term…
I picked up a CROM a few weeks ago. I really like the 65 MOA ring on the Holosun, and I don’t think there is much else out there that has the big ring - I wish Aimpoint did one. So, I’m actively looking for a deal on a HE503CU-GR.
The only modification I need to make is a small notch for mounting screw clearance, right?

Others have also mentioned milling down an Allen key to where it's just enough to get it in to get purchase on the screw so you don't have to go cutting up your optic. I figure if you ahve the tools and skill to notch the optic to make room for the Allen key you should also have the skill to modify the Allen key instead. Just my opinion though.
I didn’t think of that - I’ll have to look once I get the optic, but grinding a sacrificial key makes sense.

I'd be more likely to put the 508T on a carry gun than a shotgun because there's a greater chance of dropping a carry gun. Ideally you'd have a sling on a shotgun, and there's also way less likelihood of - if you ever did drop a shotgun - of it landing *on* the red dot.
I have experience with both in green, and the 507C X2 is what I've got on my RMR CROM. My 508T X2 is going on my P320 X-Compact once I can be bothered to install it.
