What else can we help answer? Here’s the cheat sheet freedomgorilla.com/blogs/news/holosun-pistol-optic-cheat-sheet?yt

[@Jason-yd7nm]

Would the c series work with a regular stock Glock 19?

[@patriotfirst]

Which one if any would have the least overhang and fill in all the gaps. I guess what I'm asking is which of the 3 would look the cleanest. Thanks for the help. I also noticed that some of them required different screws that are currently out of stock, any idea when they will be back in stock for the echelon

[@MrBigJonathanD]

As others have commented, this video explains Holosun's product lineup Far more clearly and concisely than their own website and marketing materials. I've been considering buying a Holosun for months and have struggled to know which was right for me up until watching this video. Just became your customer! Looking forward to that sweet 509T arriving in the mail.

[@freedomgorilla1]

We appreciate all of it! Thank you

[@XGearHead70X]

You're my hero.. not sure why Holosun feels the need to make their naming convention so confusing. Need a special decoder just to figure out what makes them different. Thanks for putting this together!

[@freedomgorilla1]

Haha thanks! We appreciate the support

[@TheHillBillyPageantLife]

No shit!

[@mikegee9473]

God bless you young man. Trying to find out the footprint of any Optics is almost impossible. Thank you!!

[@acpacp7480]

Congratulations on tackling the Holosun series of optics. I put a 509T on Glock 34/5 MOS when it first came out and still going strong during IDPA matches. Thank you for sharing great job.

[@ad9285]

Thank you for explaining the differences, I was confused before watching this video but you won a customer, I just ordered the 508T green. Can't wait to install it. Thank you!

[@KirkWinterrowd]

Thank you for this. I was still confused about the EPS series but now I understand and know which one I want.

[@tonyburkhart888]

Thank-you so very much for producing this excellent video that clarifies the confusing menagerie of Holosun products. You definitely simplified the selection and purchasing process for me and I'm sure many others.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Super appreciate the feedback Tony! That’s what our intention was.

[@miketurner9157]

outstanding video! great job teaching a subject many want to learn Holosuns info is a bit hard to follow or find and you did a great job walking through it all.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thank you! We appreciate ur feedback and I’m glad it was helpful

[@JordanDTS]

SCS-MP2-GR was designed to fit the Smith & Wesson® M&P-M2.0™ full size and compact, 9mm and 40 S&W handguns (will not fit 1.0 or Shield™ models)

[@aceh716]

So this will fit a Glock 23 Gen 5? I got the 507c and of course it didn’t fit

[@damonharrington2948]

@@aceh716 There’s a Glock MOS version and an M&P version. They are firearm platform specific.

[@PoppaSimTV]

How about the m&p 2.0 10mm

[@damonharrington2948]

@@PoppaSimTV Same as the 9mm

[@rmblwgn]

​@@aceh716of course it doesn't fit a gun that doesn't have an optic cut. Its very obvious when a gun is milled for a red dot or not

Thank you. Yw!

[@Gpac5]

Thank you for a great video you took a lot of the confusion out of purchasing an optic

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thank you very much glad it helped

[@TraumaRider]

Thanks for this vid. I was completely lost with the terminology, until now!!

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thank you .. and yes its very confusing!

[@tomh.648]

I most genuinely cannot accurately express via comment how much I appreciate your vid--My wife & I have been 'researching' (ie; Googling shit) pistol red dots for our pair of G19s. I'm 20+ yrs extensive experience w/ firearms, & her, abt 5 now, under my guidance. But neither of us know about pistol red dots...carbines, sure...pistols, nope. You did a damn good job explaining the ins & outs of Holosun red dots in easily understood detail. My dear wife says a huge thank you for clear explanations, & I'm thrilled you gave a more technical description when necessary--thanks. Subbed--You earned it.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thanks Tom that awesome we appreciate it! If you have specific questions or want us to cover something in a video let us know

[@hashtagjustadad5110]

Glad I saw this. Thank you.

[@DavidAbraham504]

Excellent. Thank you for sharing.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Sure! And thank you!

[@bobcat5844]

That was very good video really informative thanks. You’re right to the point straight in comparing the red dots.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Thank you!

[@AlSimon]

All my questions answered in one video; thanks. I'm getting my wife a S&W Equalizer and planning on installing an EPS Carry on it, as I believe the EPS would be too wide.

[@freedomgorilla1]

Great choice, I like the Equalizer. Yup agreed the Carry is a better option. Here’s a more in-depth guide for the Equalizer as well freedomgorilla.com/blogs/news/top-3-red-dot-optics-for-the-s-w-equalizer-green-dot-versions

[@ironcity4392]

Looking for the best one to put on a PSA Dagger. I think the clear choice now is 507C

[@freedomgorilla1]

@@ironcity4392 out of Holosun’s rmr footprint lineup I’m a huge fan of the 508T which is made of titanium instead of aluminum and has a flatter top like the K series. But if you don’t need something as heavy duty, our most popular seller would be the 507C green dot

Bless you my son, you are a god. I just spent 2 hours on Holosun's site trying to figure out that which you have beautifully summarized. That site is a nightmare to use. You explained everything clearly and then are providing us with a sheet to really decide what fits our needs best. I appreciate the link and will purchase through you. I think you should apply to Holosun for a job or sell them your comparison sheet. I do have a question though. What happened to the Vulcan reticle? It was like an instant trainer to really improve one's muscle memory

Good Video...... Appreciate it 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Excellent summary Video! Just got my 407k for my SIG 228 on a outer impact mount. Need to get it to my gunsmith for mounting. If it works I might replace the old gen 507C on my SIG 226 down the line too.
