    That's a $400 optic. You know, the same price as an Aimpoint PRO or Eotech 512, optics that have a combat record, not just the reddit consensus.

    It's great for the price, and checks a lot of boxes, but it still doesn't have the clarity of the topshelf brands. If you want the best, you still need to pay for it.

      This sums it up. The biggest difference is in the glass clarity.
      Although the glass is so thick on rmr's that the distortion is a little worse the then 509t that I have.

    >I know NV capability and durability factors matter
    You hit the nail on the head. If you want an AEMS then buy it.
    Under NV it is better than my PRO but not as good as my micro. I also think button interfaces are dumb vs just having a dial. We all have to draw a line somewhere though, and $400 (or $300 for a CORE) vs $700 for a T2 is not a small gap for a lot of people. It's okay that the AEMS is not the best, since it is still really good for its price.

    That's kind of what I was saying. I think the AEMS is fine in its price class. Is it the best red dot you can buy? No, I do not think so but that doesn't immediately mean that the AEMS is bad.

    From specifically a clarity of the window standpoint no its not, but it is really close. Close enough that once you factor in Eotech "reliability", weight, battery preferences, etc you may decide that you would rather sacrifice that clarity and get the AEMS. If it is a work gun or shooting under NV is something really important to you I'd just recommend saving up for a T2 over either of them.
    I don't have experience with the HS512, just the 403, 503, and AEMS. The AEMS is leagues ahead of the 403 and 503 Holosuns I have since their notch filters are both noticeably more blue under daylight and they do not pass ambient light near as well/almost none at all under NV. In fact they are dark enough under NV you would want to use an illuminator with them for targets smaller than the window at which point you may as well just use your LAM.

    This is one of the biggest problems today. If you don't have the absolute and undisputed best of anything, everyone thinks its trash. There are varying degrees of quality and something can just be good or okay.

    I agree, especially once night vision enters the conversation as justification. People forget that only a small percentage of gun owners even have I2 night vision or a place to shoot with it. While Holosun may not be just-as-good it can certainly be good enough depending on your usage.

      It's good enough, 503s are useable under nods. GBRS uses 507s in their nvg videos and plenty of Holosun's on SOFs/soldiers with duals in Ukraine.

        Usable within an envelope. Most of the online videos/pictures I've seen demonstrate their use in optimum conditions, high-light suburban environments, or just on torso targets at room distances where seeing through the window doesn't matter, just having an aiming point in space is good enough.
        When it's truly dark at range then the light transmission of the window and ability to get the emitter super dim really matters. IMO the 503 doesn't cut it in that environment. That being said, someone could just as easily say that my rural usage at range with passive aiming isn't common so my opinions don't not matter.
        Buy what matters or is good enough for your usage.

              Also Chinkanon how do you feel about the new 191?
              I saw a blog post by a critic (not western, one of your fellow Hua people or whatever) and translated it, and he seemed to think it was a piece of shit. He had a bunch of valid criticisms as far as I could tell, he was big mad about the whole platform.
              For instance, he was pointing out how in testing spent cases kept getting caught in the ejection port so instead of re-designing the bolt and extractor they just hand-filed the port larger where the cases were getting stuck until the gun functioned reliably, which is why the ejection port on final guns has the weird little enlargement machined into the top of the ejection port towards the rear.

            is he showing that as long as the barrel is pointing at the target the sight will stay on it regardless of your eye position ?
            if so would the sight move off target in a cheaper optic as your head moves ?

              Yes, its called parallax shift. That video is actually showing a bit of shift from the AEMS, which is unusual because I cant replicate it unless Im within a range that pretty much all red dots experience parallax shift.

                thx anon. I bought cheap just to put something on while I drill myself to get safety down. ( its been quite a few yers ) And the dot moves with your head or eyes. Which is ok, it was 50 bucks and is serving its purpose for now.
                Looking at either LPVO or a fixed scope and an offset 1x reflex , or piggyback. Honestly it seems you would want a 1x in primary position.
                What is the best way to look through diff optics in realistic ( a 100 yards or so of open space ) situation
                Will firing range let you try diff optics ?

                so shorter distance, more shift ?

              • 2 years ago
                Anonymous

                Technically yes, but no, let me explain.
                Most red dots have parallax "Set" to 100 yards.
                This means that at 100 yards, there should be no parallax, with increasing amounts at close range.
                If you set your optic a few feet from a wall, and mount it to something steady, it'll look like there's a lot of parallax, but that's unrealistic given how close it is to the target.
                Of course, a 4 MOA shift at 25 yards means a shift of just one inch... not much. 4 MOA at 100 yards is 4 inches... more noticeable.

                I think I see, though it looks like a lot ( noticeable movement ) , it really isnt, the distance it shifts relative to the target when at close range is not that much.
                Did not know they " set " parallax. Have some reading to do. Thx again

          I think you stumbled over your extra chromosome there, the Chinese can indeed replicate LED technology.

          That's the reality, but you'd sound really fricking dumb if you told the truth. You're probably not even lying on purpose, you're just too fricking stupid to know better.

          The bigger issue is of course thermal drift will affect holoraphics to a much greater degree, so you won't be having POI at your POA anyway, lmao

        Anyone who knows anything about glass runs price/performance. No amount of "made in X" or price will change that. Glass polishing, coating, and the likes has been known forever now. It's only the Chinese who recently caught on and that was a few years ago. I know you want to cope, but I'm a professional photographer and do this shit every day of my life. Making clear glass isn't hard and with camera technologies that gap has been closed significantly. The rest is an aluminum housing and etching.

        Leupold is junk, stem to stern. There are good euro optics (older Zeiss and older S&B, for example), but there is also a lot of junk (Swaro, new Zeiss, etc).
