I recently took a Pistol Optics class with Hilton Yam, the owner of 10-8 Performance. He was using a Trijicon SRO but recommended and was very complimentary about the Holosun 508T. One of the students said something to the effect that Holosun is made in China. Hilton's response was; 'Where was your phone manufactured?' I asked Hilton if he felt the Holosun 508T was as durable as my Trijicon RMR? His answer; 'Absolutely'.
If I convert another pistol to a Red Dot, I may give the Holosun 508T a try. The exposed photo cell is my only complaint… So, perhaps a 507. If I don’t like the Holosun, I’ll lift it off and buy another RMR.
