- Pretty disappointed in this optic.
We reached out to the company for comment and explained the situation.
Stay tuned for more on this optic, as of right now it is a non-recommend

For those that keep commenting that it’s the mount
This is the same mount
Different optic
Adapter plate on the mount
Different day
Same distance
Same test
No zero lost. Thank you.

You say it is the same test but are you beating the second optic on the same object, with the same force, and the same repetition? Your linked video does not demonstrate the same number of strikes.
@@tornado2-3692 it’s the same test, I beat the optic like 40 times against the post. I used the same force that was used with the tacticon. If yall don’t believe then it is what it is.
You're not gonna wanna hear this, but it's probably the mount setup. Right now you have the optic screwed into a plate that is screwed into the dovetail mount that is mounted on the slide. There's so many parts that can move around compared to mounting directly to slide, or mounting to a plate to a slide. Every extra part is just another point of possible failure
I'd recommend testing that mount with another optic to see if you can repeat the results
You’ll probably save yourself quite a bit of future headache getting a slot milled on the slide
For reference, I've got one mounted on an Impact Machining plate which is mounted on my CZ Shadow 2 directly to the slide. About a thousand rounds through it, no issues
@@bearmtn7 not the mount. Different optic used on the same mount, same test, no shift. Not the mount. Optic was constantly checked for any wiggle and non was found during the test. This time it’s the optic.
If hotdog water was a content creator.
@@kevindutton3676 ehh I ain’t for everyone, be mad though my guy, cheers to you.
I have this same optic on my Echelon never had a problem or failure doesn’t lose zero is one of the best optics I’ve owned. I also have their tactical light, lpvo, sling, iron sights, and many other products they are all solid this company does it right and this one video shouldn’t deter anyone from checking them out and using their products. And before you keyboard warriors start coming I shoot literally everyday rifle and pistol and I’m putting everything under stress with dynamic training.
@@TacticalArsenal I’m glad this works really well for you, I’ve been sent a replacement and it’s currently sitting piggyback on a rifle right now until I get time to put it on a pistol and try it again. I probably should have said this in the video but this is a sample size of one, so do more research. I do want to say I have really liked their WML, sling, and battle belt as that has been my go to for a hot minute now, unfortunately this is just how the cookie crumbled on this day with this optic
I'm with you this guys a clown he needs to get a better mount

Sad it wasn't a review and reviews it.
@@normalking83 what ?
I want to buy a Predator V4 now....
@@PaperSlayer93 hope you enjoy your purchase
My belts hold up my pants, his belt perks up his tum tum 😂😂😂
I must have struck a nerve with people, this is probably the most attacks I’ve gotten on one video. Sorry you purchased something that I didn’t like. 😉
@FirearmsAndFitness just take a joke, dude. I never bought that shit.
@potobserver9191 ah I’m sure.
@FirearmsAndFitness think whatever you want, Mr., "Fitness"
@@potobserver9191 just take a joke, dude…
I have one and I really want to put it to the test
@@TertiaOculus I really wanted this to be a good optic, I like the company a lot, and I like high quality items that happen to be inexpensive. Unfortunately this wasn’t a win in my book, they have sent me a replacement but I haven’t gotten to test it since this
@@FirearmsAndFitness I have one of their belts and backpack and they are good for the price and hopefully I luck out with my optic, if not I’ll just save for an actual SRO
@@TertiaOculus I love the battle belt I have from them, I’ve had it going on 3 years or so and it’s been amazing. And hopefully your sample is good my guy
Thanks for making the video. Sorry everyone is mean to you.
@@markzuckerberg3128 I appreciate it, some people just like to project themselves, some people are just miserable, and some people can’t deal with the fact I didn’t like an item they bought
Damn bro if you would of let me know I would of hooked you up with a buddy who sells HOLOSUN Optics at discounted price . Could of got you 507C-X2-ACSS for 280ish or 507C for 250ish ..
I would imagine the MOUNT is what shifted and not the optic but could be wrong . Just get it zeroed again and dont smash it until you save up some dough for direct thread OPTICS MOUNT
@@seanwhite304 I already have another optic in for testing so that’s what I’m the gun right now. After a little more testing with this I found I was having a floating zero, and with a little digging we think the ring on the inside that shifts the lazer is out of spec and moving around
@@FirearmsAndFitness interesting .
You shooting tomorrow at Shadowhawk
@@seanwhite304 that’s my game plan right now. My pistol isn’t zeroed though so I’ll be limping along for a little until I figure out where it’s hitting
@@FirearmsAndFitness
LOL . Well at least everything will be 25Y and in so you should be GTG . Half those pistol targets I'm point shooting anyways .
That match we shot at TCSC my 13.9" 556n was not zeroed at all . I was able to hit at 100 , 200 , and 300 .
If I can do that with not zeroed carbine you'll be fucking stud with a not zeroed pistol lol ..
We are in squad 3 . If someone does not show up from our squad you could just come over to our squad
@@seanwhite304 yeah it was filled when I went to sign up lol
I’d be willing to bet it’s that mount.
Same mount was used with a different optic, no shift present after the same test
Funny this guy has fitness in the channels name 😂
@@iPaintCars_215 I probably should address this in a video or something as this has come up a few times, long story short, I’m a strongman competitor, last year I got a really bad back injury at work, this in turn made it difficult and painful for me to lift and run, after about 9 months of PT I’ve gotten the ok to start lifting again and what not, sooo I’ve recently started on my way back into getting back into a shape that isn’t a potato lol. That all said me filming myself walk isn’t exactly that interesting.
I got a lpvo from them and it fail off the rail and I had a gun smith put it on
@@jadenrichardson2195 I’ve never used their LPVO options so I can’t speak to that. Were you able to get it remounted with thread locker?
@@FirearmsAndFitness I didn’t want to I went and got an sig red dot . I can’t trust the Lpvo after that I would say it would be good for somebody that is shooting airsoft or a 22. I don’t think I would trust their product with my life. I believe the company is trying to make it affordable for people, but like you said you get what you paid for. My experience is to save some money and get the better optic.
The only reason I bought the optic was because it’s my first time owning a rifle and putting an optic on it and I didn’t do that much research so I paid the price. I almost spent $100 on it. I would just say it to say LPVO for primary arms for those looking for an LPVO that is in a budget option.
Love the video, subbed.
Thanks man, just a heads up I am going to be on a hiatus for a good while because of some IRL stuff. Apologies in advance
@@FirearmsAndFitness it happens. I dig your content either way.
@kineticconceptstactical I appreciate it my man
So you shot 2 inches low from the head zone on paper, then all the sudden 3 and 4 sooo that was edited. Then shot 4 inches low on the A zone. The last one was key holing. So you're saying your ammo sucks. It's just seems weird you were shooting fi, e then have a malfunction stating its the ammo and now it's the optics fault. I use tons of tacticon optics, and I'm not easy on them I've had no issues. Also, I see no problem with those groups . If it's a bad guy he's done. There is no need to bash a brand because of stupid crap like that. Calling things hotdog water for views is a starfish Channel.
I do wish you the best on your channel.
@@The-Noobtuber what ever cope you need my guy, I didn’t have these issues until the optic was used to rack a round, both times the optic consistently shifted zero low, not only low, but super low. The zeroing ring inside the optic was slipping when it was rack as best as we can tell, for a 300 dollar optic I expect much better. Saying that your stuff works when mine clearly isn’t is like me calling dell letting them know that I have the blue screen of death on my laptop and them saying well that their computer is working fine so I must be lying. I have other products from them that have worked well, this is just not one of them. It’s not my job to give only good reviews, I am here sharing my experience with others. My experience was negative, a 6 inch shift low at 25 yards is unacceptable to me.
