Thread: New MRDS: Holosun 507C

  1. #1

    New MRDS: Holosun 507C

    Anyone else interested in this sight?
    -50,000 hour battery life with solar backup
    -32MOA circle reticle with 2 MOA dot
    -manually adjustable brightness
    -RMR mount compatible

    I've been impressed with their aimpoint clones, but a pistol MRDS is a whole new ball game. Really hope this proves to be durable, the battery life and reticle are unheard of for MRDS.

    Sounds interesting. Saw it on a Shot Show review and was wondering when it would hit. I’m not certain, but I think Holosun make the Primary Arms RDS that seem ok. At the right price point it could be fun to play with.

    Does its footprint, bolt holes, etc match any of the existing ones?

    RMR footprint supposedly.

    Just confirmed with them. It is an RMR footprint. Should be getting one in about 3 weeks to evaluate for use on a pistol.

    But not on their RMS, which is the model built to be mounted on a reciprocating slide. (Do correct me if I have that wrong)

    I was really interested in the shield but the lack of manual brightness controls and the flimsy/uncovered battery tray ended my interest.

    So with RMRs selling for $349, what does this bring to the table at $299 other than a circle dot reticle ?

    Maybe that's MSRP and they'll come down once they've been on the market a bit?

    I'll say I've been happy with my circle-dot Holosun on my rifle, but I'm not an operator of any kind and it's the only RDS I have any significant experience with. It's worked fine for a couple of 3-gun matches. Just picked up their low-end model (Truglo) for the wife's birthday rifle; it's just a plinker/range toy and figured if she wants something different after a while it can go on one of the .22s.
