Covering all the bases and even replying to comments on old videos, I love this channel!!

[@reesestefer]

Good video, straight to the point and answered all questions people have! Thanks!

[@freedomgorilla1]

Awesome. Thank you!

[@josephtucciarone6878]

Thank you for this. Many of us are interested in purchasing.

[@Lakanen263]

Your videos and website are very helpful. Thanks

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thanks for watching!

[@salpanahi]

Finally a good freaking video showing the important differences. I just wish the comp had the solar for backup

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thanks for watching! I asked Holosun about this and they said that competition shooters don't use auto mode, they want more control of the reticle so it wasn't included.

[@salpanahi]

@@freedomgorilla1 huh, I guess it makes sense, at least we know the reason now, thx!

[@bull5919]

you funny asf.. a slolar panel that the thing last over 50,000hours smh

[@cliffordrandell735]

​@@bull5919 The Comp doesn't have half a million hours battery life as you said.. I don't think any sight does

[@cliffordrandell735]

I've heard others say that the solar is a gimmick

[@blakeproctor5199]

I carry the 507 comp in a Springfield Echelon

[@blakeproctor5199]

I carry a sig p365X concealed when necessary

[@freddyfudpucker6301]

Great video, bud! I have been doing my research with pen and paper to compare the two 507 models. Thank you for summarizing the differences in a concise video!!!

[@freedomgorilla1]

Perfect. Glad it was helpful!

[@markanthonyart]

I just got the 507C in green as my first dot. I use it for range and home defense. The 507 Comp looks appealing because of the larger window. Seems like it would be better for my eyesight. I think i'll get the 507 Comp as my next one for range/home use.

[@alangwin3891]

Agreed. Looking for a red dot for my Springfield Prodigy. It is primarily a range and home defense tool. 👍 507 Comp looks like the ticket.

[@justinhuelsmann6086]

If you guys are interested I accidentally bought the comp gr thinking it was the 507c and blow I’m stuck with it, it’s brand new in the box never opened, I’m trying to sell it.

[@hoffies101]

Awesome vid got the 507comp today will be testing it saturday.

[@pelon1977dl]

Did you end up liking the 507 comp?

[@cliffordrandell735]

​@@pelon1977dl He must still be saving up for ammo 😮

[@tomstevenson413]

Great video, I was wondering if the deck heights were exactly the same and the still picture you provided answered my question with certainty, thanks

[@freedomgorilla1]

Perfect that’s exactly what we strive for!

[@nolesrgood2139]

Freedom Gorilla is a top-notch outfit. Very knowledgeable and helpful. I will by my next optic from them. Very friendly. Steve is awesome!!!!

[@accord50]

i run the 507c on my EDC a Glock 19 Gen3. Works for me. I also use it when I shoot IDPA matches.

[@cdpc211]

I am glad I saw this video. I was about to buy the 507C and changed my mind.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Glad it was helpful!

[@architecturehappy]

Totally torn on this and 508t, might go comp for quicker follow up range fun and hopefully one day some competition use

[@MCMXI1]

Good job. Thanks

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thank you!

[@davesrandomchannel9444]

I just want to add, if you carry full size to begin with, the comp wouldn't be that big deal. I carry an Echelon with the comp daily and love every second of it. I do NOT conceal carry full size. If I conceal its usally a 365 or 43x

[@markbroad119]

I just got the sig Romeo zero for my GX4. Hope I like it. Still gotta get to the range

[@ruiinned9098]

I’m 5’9 170lbs and conceal carry a full size staccato p with tlr1 and hs 507 comp. Complete with 20 rd spare mag. The secret…? Philster enigma. It’s more comfortable carrying this way than it was for me to carry a 365xl in a black point tactical dual point holster.

[@elijahanderson6478]

⁠@@ruiinned9098I have a glock 22 with a surefire x300 turbo weapon light, do you think adding the comp optic would be a problem for CC ?

[@ruiinned9098]

@@elijahanderson6478 not running the system I have. I have a comp optic on my staccato. You just have to make sure to order the correct holster for your light.

[@grllaspeak]

I quess its just me but the 507 Comps base looks longer than 507C's could be an issue if you tried to attach to a subcompact milled slide. Great video

[@freedomgorilla1]

Yea it’s it’s the same length

[@lenwalter6866]

Which one of these would fit my Mossberg 940 pro?

[@bull5919]

im planing on edc the 507 comp on the staccato cs when It get here this week

[@cody162]

Have you been carrying the 507 comp? If so how do you like it?

[@take1one]

Any coupon codes? Ill try a green Comp on a shadow 2 compact.

[@jaceprovo]

Yep.

[@thomaswaibel253]

With shake awake, does it stay on while walking? How do you know your battery level?

[@freedomgorilla1]

It would stay on while walking. There no way to see battery level per say but when the battery level is slow the dot will blink

[@theNfl_Esq]

Which one is best in Shield plus PC?

[@carlosramosramoscarlos4675]

I just bought my canik mete mc9 Holosun HE507 Competition It fits ?

[@architecturehappy]

No, you bought a great micro 9, the giant 507 comp with RMR footprint does not fit. Holosun k-series fit, so does EPS Carry.

[@lenwalter6866]

Which one of these sites would fit my Mossberg 940 pro?

[@robertj9361]

Both. They are the same footprints.

[@billtaylor1656]

Will the comp fit on the echelon?

[@freedomgorilla1]

Yes it will! Here’s our vid on the echelon optics: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZzcmId6pNGWotUsi=ATfrLTAB7D4qqQhX

[@DLopex3]

Will 507comp fit my dove mount plate?

[@freedomgorilla1]

If your dovetail plate is rmr yes

[@alihaider-hn7sd]

I have canik mete sft which one is better??

[@freedomgorilla1]

If you daily carry, the 507C. If its just something you take to the range than I’d suggest the 507 comp

[@jaybee2812]

507 comp not being able to adjust its brightness sucks

[@freedomgorilla1]

507 comp is adjustable. It just doesn’t have an auto mode

[@jaybee2812]

@@freedomgorilla1 lol got it all wrong then thanks dude, I’m definitely picking one up thank a again
