I just had the emitter fail yesterday 20 rounds into a range session. I only had about 500 rounds with this dot and have not abused it. I just searched TH-cam on this and was deflated to learn this was a thing. Since you all run these a hell of a lot more than the regular guy/girl, i am surprised you all haven’t voiced any of these problems?
Great presentation. I just wish you went over the 3 available reticles and advantages/disadvantages of each and showed us the differences between them.
Is it decently accurate at long range? You ever use the Gideon Omega which is basically a clone? What footprint do you use for the mount to work on the AK?
1 moa is my go to. But don’t size doesn’t matter a ton. If you train and have a good index and stay target focused when drawing/transitioning the gun you’ll literally see the dot at the same time.
So far, it is the worst one that I owed.. the latest 1 that I purchased did not make it through 2 mags. 2 mag it powered down,, can not keep it on. Put a new battery in it... it stayed on for 3 seconds. Now I sit and wait for a 600 dollar red dot
@@sundayswinter6719 how would u know if it is a fake? I bought mine on amazon and not gonna lie when i read your ,essage it made my stomach jump like did i get ripped off 600 too? Ive never had mine shut off though. So hopefully the one i purchased is real came in a trijicon plastic box so hope thatbmeant it was real also had warranty info..
I had the same issue, and Trijicon customer service was ridiculous.. They were arrogant and insisted that somehow it had to be my fault that their device was trash.. And they kept saying "it's made in America sir" like that was proof that it couldn't be defective in any way.. Eventually my issue was resolved and they begrudgingly replaced it but I had to pay for shipping.. A week later I dropped it from waste high on a linoleum floor and it cracked.. I now only put Holosun's on my weapons and I haven't had a single issue.. Plus they all have shake awake and they're priced better
Wait… I can’t drop it out of a helicopter or take a sledgehammer to it? Sounds like a piece of junk to me. What if I’m carrying while climbing the Eiffel Tower to evade zombies and my Chinesium Raganarok fails me (nah!) and my g17 hits several support beams and lands optic first and Darly isn’t there to save me? What then?
People’s main argument for not liking the SRO is the durability and price besides that it’s a great optic I have an RMR and SRO both are high quality optics and have no doubts about them I do feel better knowing the RMRs window is more better off if I drop it but the SROs window is fantastic in comparison as long as you’re not clumsy and tend to drop everything you should be good, however, with the new RMR HD it might be perfect for those who want the bigger window similar to the SRO while having the durability of the original RMR.
I prefer the holsoun 507t, it was the 507t or the sro but my only complaint wasn't the price but the blue tent in he glass, man if it weren't for that I'd be getting the sro but I'm getting my first red dot next month and have chosen the 507t from my research. But the SRO is neck and neck with it. Also the rmr HD, those were the 3 I was stuck between lol.
It doesn't have shake awake, if u drop it its gonna crack and it has parts that were made in China.. All u have to have is 51% of your parts made in the US in order to stamp that "made in the USA" tag on the box.. I'll take a Holosun 507 comp over this all day every day.. I will admit the SRO does look cool, but Trijicon isn't fucking with Holosun.. They're overpriced a don't have the best features
Either I had bad luck with holosun or their quality control is shit. Would never buy again or listen to people that think they are the next greatest thing when they are so faulty. I’ll stick with the Trijicon, never failed me all 6 years in the service.

At 65 years of age the Trijicon SRO with a 5 MOA Dot is the only way to go for me , I do wish they had a Green 5 MOA Dot !
Had to go back to 1:23 to check if that little glitchy thing was an easter egg 😄
Lets go I run one on a 7.62 AK in 2.50 MOA on a rs regulate mount. I do use a jagerwerks SHEILD on top. I love it

Great review, great content.
That gray pistol light, what kind is that?
Thank you so much very informational!.
which is your favorite dot size?
He usually does the 1 MOA.
Do you sell the jagerworks b.r.os. to beef it up?
Sro is a hell of a dot. Every dot falls short lds on nods
Anyone know how these hold up on shotguns? I have a 12 gauge 590A1 with 14 inch barrel im lookin to put a dot on.
Put a Holosun 510 on it instead
What MOA would you recommend for a Glock45?
For conceal, the 5 MOA is ideal. Easier to find your dot.
1 moa is my go to. But don’t size doesn’t matter a ton. If you train and have a good index and stay target focused when drawing/transitioning the gun you’ll literally see the dot at the same time.
i just picked up a ruger marlin 45-70 and was thinking about putting a sro on it. Is there any reason I shouldn't?
An rMR may be a a bit better, just a bit tougher but an SRO would work fine. They do handle recoil well
@@randyjustin4408 I decided on a MRO with a co-witness mount 3x magnifier.
Does the SRO have green dot option?
I struggle changing the battery
Does anybody have issues with their sro turning itself off while carrying in holester?
No never have. Have one mounted on my ccw carry it appendix in a tier one concealed holster also carry one in a safariland lvl3 no issues
LB, all in on the SRO, but why not the DP pro? They have a NV variant.
Battery life on the SRO is better.
dp pro sits super high up on the gun. Google pics of it. I didnt like how chunky it was.
Holosun eps vs trijicon!! Please next video
Does it have shake awake ?
No
No, but it will stay on for approximately 1 yr w/o shutting it off.
@@MADDOG100fulnope
I just bought a sro.. plus button is mushy and the minus button click/has feed back like an actual button... is this normal?
So far, it is the worst one that I owed.. the latest 1 that I purchased did not make it
through 2 mags. 2 mag it powered down,, can not keep it on. Put a new battery in it... it stayed on for 3 seconds. Now I sit and wait for a 600 dollar red dot
you probably bought a fake bubba

Wont find a better red dot in my opinion.
SRO superior 💪😎

people hating on the SRO are just too poor to afford one lol.
