Great comparison video. Gave me a great feel for the size of the dot and sight picture, etc. I have been looking at all of these, except the Eotech. I'm definitely sold on the Holosun!
I had never considered distortion on the edges of the sites to be a thing that really diminishes the image quality so badly. Now I know to avoid scopes that have edge-distortion, thanks!
@@hamhocks In reality it’s not going to fail. And in a shit hits the fan situation, your gonna be dead before the optic is, that’s just a cold hard fact a lot of people have a hard time coming to terms with.
Just bought the holosun. This makes me even happier with my purchase-not to mention the fact that it was only 2 clicks (windage only) from being zeroed right out of the box.
THANK YOU!!! You just saved me a 120 mile round trip into the city (and traffic). Last thing I needed to do before buying... actually look through the sight. This was the next best thing. Cheers.
great video. It's important to notice that parallax is a setting based on distance and eventhough red dots and holos don't mention it. They are also sat at a certain distance. So that could easily also be a factor as to why these (besides edge distortion of glass) have such varied results.
Awesome review, sir. Looks like Holosun came up on top, with Eotech close behind. Hate that cheapo Sightmark/Bushnell tint. And holy gerbil, them tube RDS' do have very pronounced POI shifts compared to single plane reflex sights. I may have to do my own investigation on that a bit.
You are the goat! Seems like eotech is still king of parallax free but holosun is no slouch. Plus it's cheaper by like 200 bucks and the reticle is not fuzzy like a holographic
I got the Holosun he530c-gr elite. I must say, it is an AWESOME sight. Tough as nails and holds zero. Not sure about the other Holosun's, but if they are half as good as this one you can't go wrong!!
they're not just half as good, they're 100% as good as the 530 in terms of holding zero and the cripness of the reticle/dot (difference are the killflash, titanium body, cap and solar (for some units)) got the 403b for my ar15 and this 510c for my sbr
@@JerryCheng22 That's awesome. Glad to hear positive feedback from other Holosun users. It quantifies my experience with the brand. In my opinion, it's the Eotech killer.
It's a parallax comparison and people here saying the Holosun came out on top LOL. EoTech doesn't show any visible parallax. The Holosun shows some parallax when the reticle was on the left. I have a dual reticle Holosun and an EoTech EXPS3. As much as I like how crispy the Holosun looks, EoTech has superior build quality and reliability. As soon as I unboxed my Holosun, I switched between the reticles (circle dot to dot only) multiple times and I ended up with no dot at all. It happened a few times right out of the box. The Holosun also scratches really easy due to the mediocre anodizing. EoTech fixed the issues and made a good reliable optic. If you want a cheaper red dot, go for the Sig Romeo 5 (which is made by Holosun from what I know). It has better anodizing and overall better quality than the Holosun branded optics.
I've been fielding a 510C at work for the past two years as a SWAT medic, it has held up just fine. It had less than 1 moa of parallax poi difference at 100 yds when our gunsmith was checking it to approve it for field use. As for durability, I work in the desert and it's held up to the heat and sand/dust just fine. Yes the anodizing comes off, but the actual metal and housing itself is extremely durable, function over beauty imo. There's a video around here somewhere of a guy shooting it with a shotgun, amongst other things and it kept on trucking. If that isn't durable, what is? It also works well with nods. Between the two, I'll take the HS any day of the week.
Actually, I'm seeing minor parallax on the EOTech: - At 0:09, it starts out on the left of the post when the camera is on the right, and when it's centered, the dot is centered on the post. - At 0:10, when the camera moves to the left, the dot is now located slightly on the right of the post. - At 0:12, when the camera comes back middle, the dot is centered again. - At 0:13, with the camera on the right, the dot is now on the left of the post. Although I wonder if it's correct to qualify that parallax, since it goes the other way around (usually, it would be slightly on the left as you move to the left, whereas there it goes to the opposite direction).
@@replacesoundboard You might be right but it's still very minimal compared to the Holosun. Owning both optics, I can easily say I prefer the EOTech. I'm selling one of my rifles with the Holosun attached.
@@fivefivesix-sevensixtwo4114 One thing for sure, I like being able to use AA batteries, because they're much more common. Almost every other optics only take the disk shaped ones (which I believe cannot be found as easily).
@affirm bird - let me know if you ever do a Parallax video on the holosun AEMS. I just got mine and its terrible... Like to the point where i think I got a fake. I need a comparison video to tell.
When the TRS-25 came out in 2009, there was nothing on the market that was remotely close to as good for the $130 it went for at the time. Nine years later and the world has moved on.
set2374 $130!?!? I bought my TRS25 for $60. It’s durable, cheap, does the job. It’s a red dot!A laser pointer, how much eye shifting does one do at the bench anyway, a shooter with ADHD?
A $120 price point (for the “AR” version with a riser mount) and a video on Military arms channel where he stuck one on a KV-13 and beat the hell out of it is what sold it for me as a good beginner sight. I’m still very happy with it despite the fair-at-best workmanship and poor FOV. Even so I’m upgrading to an HS510c and rotating it to .22 duty :)
settings > 0.25 speed makes this video more valuable TRS25 pretty poor Sighmark dual-shot Pro looks deent but I would bet there is a huge variation from batch to batch or due to continious cost reductions
Because Eotech uses a different method to create the reticle, and doesn't need the very reflective sight windows that reflex sights require, but it's a method that also takes up a hell of a lot more battery life than reflex sights.
The parallax varies with respect to the distance its aimed, these sights are made for CQB rifles, though manufacturers claims 500 meter, 700 meter you will not be able to hit bulls eye in those claiming ranges, because its calibrated for 100 meters all over the globe, maximum range for aiming will be 300 meter so during assembling its calibrated to 100 meter as point of intersection where you will see zero parallax between reticle and target. consider the 100 meter point of intersection as 'zero', parallax between the reticle and target increase when reticle is aimed before or after 100 meters.
I just picked up the holosun over the eotech. Looks like I made the correct choice. Motion activation is a bonus not to mention 20k-50k hour battery life.
I scored me a holosun 510c and my buddies pawn shop last week $150 out the door my first red dot I absolutely love and will never look back that 50,000hr battery life plus solar to extend and all the features I’m in love my girlfriend is jealous I spend more time on the couch with the optic then her
My holosun 510c comes tomorrow and the more research I did the more clear it became. Money aside the holosun is one of the best sights on the market and it's also one of the cheapest. Nuff said
Eotech def has the least parallax, but that holosun is mighty impressive. Only a little bit of it when you get to the very edge of the glass, crazy for a led projection optic.
Thank you so much for this video!! I only have the Bushnell out of this group but have been looking at both the Eotech and the 510c this month as my optic for my new pistol build. The Bushnell I have looks just like this video, which sucks. Gonna have to throw that in the trash and replace the optic on my other AR
The R spec sight mar gets better man you should or if you could check that out! The M spec sightmark is beast as well! Way better that the normal ultra shot!
you must be blind or realllllllllly don't want to admit you spent quite a bit more than you needed to for a quality optic. The Holosun is 100% parallax free and the reticle is noticeably crisper than the Eotech in person.
Zechnar Ramadon but these are 1x zoom so some shooting is going to be up close,less than 200m. Wether law enforcement or home defense, so it plays a bit of a role
It depends on the distance that it truly becomes parallax free, i just received mine today. I have not got to shoot with it yet. It is better than what i had, but it is not parallax free. I will let you know after i shoot with it.
Zechnar Ramadon yea its not parallax free but from the video you can tell the eotech has more parallax left to right than the holosun for sure imho. And the sightmark ultra has more up down oarallac
I had a Sightmark 14000 that had a 2hr (srs) battery life using 3 AG5 cells. Good luck finding those anywhere but online. It also had a window bluer than stained glass and some the worst parallax shift I’ve ever seen. If their higher priced units work even moderately well there’s no reason for their budget crap to exist.
PJ Lawrence pretty sure the last sightmark he showed has a 1,000 hour battery life if you left it running constantly. The batteries aren’t those dinky little nickel sized batteries, they upgraded to a singular cylindrical battery that is supposedly 10x better and easier to manipulate when putting it in. However, I’m sure there’s always a few outliers because it’s $100 after all, but the reviews are overwhelmingly positive from what I’ve seen. I just can’t find any statistics on water resistance. That’s a huge problem if it isn’t. Cheers!
I dont get how any of this works?... You have the handgun moving all over the place but the aim never moves?...how would you ever hit anything looking though this?...impossible!
After using a holographic sight for an extended period of time then switching to an LED like Holosun. The difference is night and day, there's really no sense in purchasing from company's like Eotech, Aimpoint etc. The reticles are blurred and the red dots arent even round. They also have far less features on them and cost twice the price. The Us company's offer nothing more but a better warranty.
I own a Holosun HE503R-GD, an EOTech EXPS3 and an Aimpoint T2. The EOTech looks fuzzy if you stare at the reticle. When shooting, you stare at the target and the fuzziness disappears. I have completely soaked the EOTech, kicked it, dropped it, and it's still going strong with zero issues. The anodizing is still intact after taking a beating for years. The Aimpoint T2 is super crisp and it can go really bright for daytime shooting. The battery life is also the best in the industry. No need for extra features that can malfunction. Just leave the T2 on ALL THE TIME. No issues at all with my T2 besides the price lol. The Holosun malfunctioned 2 times right out of the box. I changed the reticle from circle dot to dot only and I ended up with no dot at all 2 times right out of the box. I know I can replicate the issue whenever I want.. That's not acceptable for an optic I paid over $300 for (when it first came out). How do I know it will function properly when I need it the most if it starts malfunctioning right out of the box? The reticle is nice and crisp but it feels cheap and I don't trust it as much as my other optics. One of my rifles barely touched the Holosun and it made a big scratch. Their anodizing is horrible. They're not bad products but the quality is not on par with other big name optics. By the way Aimpoint is not a US company. The only Chinese made products I like are Chinese AKs.
WTF my amazon reflex parllaxes ALL over the place haha I have resigned to ensuring the dot is always aligned in the middle, kind of a red dot iron sight T__T
I own the Holosun and i ordered cause it had good reviews and this was one of them. No i tested the parallax with mine and it isnt like in the video there is a pretty big parallax even!
@@rangerup8088 0:08 explain how the red dot moves from one side of the pole to the other, thats like a solid 3 moa difference. I might need to see an eye doctor but at least im not legally blind like some in this thread
I just bought the matching Vortex 3x magnifier for $150 on eBay to go with my Vortex UH-1 Huey holographic sight. This magnifier easily flips to the right and does an amazing job. This setup cost my half (UH-1 was $450 on Optics Planet) of a the closest eoTech, but goes twice as deep underwater, has a tighter dot in the middle of the reticle (MUCH better than eoTech), and it's really nice to be able to use and recharge a CR123A battery without removing it. I'm a military veteran of the USMC, USN and USA with over 20 years of military experience in both jungles and deserts, and what I can tell you is eoTech does not make a better product than this sight and magnifier than this. But, eoTech does charge twice as much for their inferior products. (Yes inferior...Google the lawsuit eoTech lost...topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/592508-eotech-holographic-weapon-sights-class-action-settlement/) While, granted, the Vortex sights aren't compatible with night vision, as are most eoTechs owned by private citizens aren't, but who really needs it when you can use IR, which works great with Vortex sights and most people's eoTechs. (I know the video game hardened keyboard warriors will tell me they know more than I do and will say they and all their "friends" regularly use their night vision equipment...LOL)
It's funny because a lot of gun snobs will talk shhht If it's not eoetech, i love the holosun ames, plus alot of eote hs dont give you shake n wake, solar, and the batteries last not even near what alot of competators offer, you wont find a eoetech that last past 20,000 hrs let alone 50,000 unless you pay top price or go with an even more expensive brand or option.
Stop watching these vids...legit EOTech or aimpoint if you have the money..if not, then it doesn't really matter what you buy. I have some TRS25s on back up rifles...but not on the ones I stake my life on.
What better reticals than that blurry grainy eotech? What battery life to last years? What solar powered with built-in capacitor? What shake awake to make batteries last even longer? What just as good quality if not better than eotech? What costs way way less than eotech oh those eotech fan boys let them spend away for less of a product
You have no idea what you're talking about. EOTechs don't cost more for shits and giggles. It's not hard to get long battery life out of LED reflex sights, but like anything else you're trading off clarity, along with parallax shift. As someone who owns multiple EOTechs, but runs Holosuns on my pistols, I can assure you that the concept, and design is far superior on the EOTech optics. Same goes for the QD system. It's like night and day between the two.
Three years later. It still brings up the reliability from bumps and bruises however. A question did you buy? And was it babied or run hard and put up wet?
Holy shit an optic review that actually gives you what you need.

So basically the dot must be on the target (obviously) and in the middle of the frame and that's how one properly aims?
Why can't anyone make glass as clear as EOTech?
Because Eotech uses a different method to create the reticle, and doesn't need the very reflective sight windows that reflex sights require, but it's a method that also takes up a hell of a lot more battery life than reflex sights.
I wish the glass was clear on the Holosun. That's my only gripe.

However, I’m sure there’s always a few outliers because it’s $100 after all, but the reviews are overwhelmingly positive from what I’ve seen. I just can’t find any statistics on water resistance. That’s a huge problem if it isn’t. Cheers!
Ended up going with a sig Romeo 5 for my AR. GREAT optic for the money
NM Outdoors that it is!
It’s hard to beat the Holosun HS510C , if only they had the Vortex V.I.P warranty.
Though the glass looks best on the eotech, the holosun holds the dot position best.
I dont get how any of this works?...
You have the handgun moving all over the place but the aim never moves?...how would you ever hit anything looking though this?...impossible!
After using a holographic sight for an extended period of time then switching to an LED like Holosun. The difference is night and day, there's really no sense in purchasing from company's like Eotech, Aimpoint etc. The reticles are blurred and the red dots arent even round. They also have far less features on them and cost twice the price. The Us company's offer nothing more but a better warranty.
I own a Holosun HE503R-GD, an EOTech EXPS3 and an Aimpoint T2. The EOTech looks fuzzy if you stare at the reticle. When shooting, you stare at the target and the fuzziness disappears. I have completely soaked the EOTech, kicked it, dropped it, and it's still going strong with zero issues. The anodizing is still intact after taking a beating for years. The Aimpoint T2 is super crisp and it can go really bright for daytime shooting. The battery life is also the best in the industry. No need for extra features that can malfunction. Just leave the T2 on ALL THE TIME. No issues at all with my T2 besides the price lol. The Holosun malfunctioned 2 times right out of the box. I changed the reticle from circle dot to dot only and I ended up with no dot at all 2 times right out of the box. I know I can replicate the issue whenever I want.. That's not acceptable for an optic I paid over $300 for (when it first came out). How do I know it will function properly when I need it the most if it starts malfunctioning right out of the box? The reticle is nice and crisp but it feels cheap and I don't trust it as much as my other optics. One of my rifles barely touched the Holosun and it made a big scratch. Their anodizing is horrible. They're not bad products but the quality is not on par with other big name optics. By the way Aimpoint is not a US company. The only Chinese made products I like are Chinese AKs.
how many yards
Holosun is way better at keeping on target no matter what your angle is. Wow.
WTF my amazon reflex parllaxes ALL over the place haha
I have resigned to ensuring the dot is always aligned in the middle, kind of a red dot iron sight T__T
Holosun for the win
Thank you! This is such a great example!
How informative
I own the Holosun and i ordered cause it had good reviews and this was one of them. No i tested the parallax with mine and it isnt like in the video there is a pretty big parallax even!
Holosun 510c elite all day
Well done.
Thanks
Eotech is clear view & free parallax.
Black Stealth it has parallax, more so than holosun. Notice how when moving left to right it ends up on different side of the pole
No it doesnt ya mook , neither of them do... it doesnt move to the other side...
@@venomkiler1 you should see an eye doctor
@@rangerup8088 0:08 explain how the red dot moves from one side of the pole to the other, thats like a solid 3 moa difference. I might need to see an eye doctor but at least im not legally blind like some in this thread
@@venomkiler1 ur right, I had to watch the video twice
I just bought the matching Vortex 3x magnifier for $150 on eBay to go with my Vortex UH-1 Huey holographic sight. This magnifier easily flips to the right and does an amazing job. This setup cost my half (UH-1 was $450 on Optics Planet) of a the closest eoTech, but goes twice as deep underwater, has a tighter dot in the middle of the reticle (MUCH better than eoTech), and it's really nice to be able to use and recharge a CR123A battery without removing it. I'm a military veteran of the USMC, USN and USA with over 20 years of military experience in both jungles and deserts, and what I can tell you is eoTech does not make a better product than this sight and magnifier than this. But, eoTech does charge twice as much for their inferior products. (Yes inferior...Google the lawsuit eoTech lost...topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/closed-settlements/592508-eotech-holographic-weapon-sights-class-action-settlement/) While, granted, the Vortex sights aren't compatible with night vision, as are most eoTechs owned by private citizens aren't, but who really needs it when you can use IR, which works great with Vortex sights and most people's eoTechs. (I know the video game hardened keyboard warriors will tell me they know more than I do and will say they and all their "friends" regularly use their night vision equipment...LOL)
It's funny because a lot of gun snobs will talk shhht If it's not eoetech, i love the holosun ames, plus alot of eote hs dont give you shake n wake, solar, and the batteries last not even near what alot of competators offer, you wont find a eoetech that last past 20,000 hrs let alone 50,000 unless you pay top price or go with an even more expensive brand or option.
Stop watching these vids...legit EOTech or aimpoint if you have the money..if not, then it doesn't really matter what you buy. I have some TRS25s on back up rifles...but not on the ones I stake my life on.
lol
Exactly!
EOTech only sells to people who live in the US. Sad me.
The sound is broken!
Call BS. Why only have the dot on the Sightmark? Youre aware it also has the circle with the has marks as well as a brightness level dont you?
What you think the sightmark even comes close to any of those sights? lmao.
nice!
Sold
When the holosun beats the EO-Tech, LMAO
There is no reason to buy a Sightmark or Bushnell anything.
Stop scaring your neighbors
Holosun 510C tko
Holosun is so crisp
Lol
What better reticals than that blurry grainy eotech? What battery life to last years? What solar powered with built-in capacitor? What shake awake to make batteries last even longer? What just as good quality if not better than eotech? What costs way way less than eotech oh those eotech fan boys let them spend away for less of a product
You have no idea what you're talking about. EOTechs don't cost more for shits and giggles. It's not hard to get long battery life out of LED reflex sights, but like anything else you're trading off clarity, along with parallax shift. As someone who owns multiple EOTechs, but runs Holosuns on my pistols, I can assure you that the concept, and design is far superior on the EOTech optics. Same goes for the QD system. It's like night and day between the two.
🇺🇦👍
The most uninformative review I have ever seen
Holosun > eotech
chinese made over american made, yea no thanks
Holosun glass is a lot more blue than the Eotech. I assume that is because of the difference in emitter they use - Holosun needs the blue filter.
you've really helped me with this comparison between the holosun and the eotech
Three years later. It still brings up the reliability from bumps and bruises however. A question did you buy? And was it babied or run hard and put up wet?
