Holosun have announced the HE508T V2 red dot reflex optic, available with green or red reticles, has Shake Awake tech as standard and is rated for up to 50,000 hours of battery life and has a titanium housing. We got our first look at the HE508T V2 back at SHOT Show 2020. Last week Holosun announced their HM3XT Titanium 3x Magnifier which we also got a look at earlier this year.

Here’s what Holosun have to say about the new red dot:

City of Industry, CA (Jul. 29, 2019)- Holosun is leading the charge in open-reflex pistol sight design with extremely durable, accurate and reliable build concepts. The engineering is exceptionally detailed, and the sights utilize advanced battery technology to last for an incredible 50,000 hours at a middle setting.

Available in both red and green circle/dot coloration, the sights are rock solid and ready to perform at any moment. Shake awake technology springs the sight into action without requiring any buttons or controls to transition from a sleep state to battle-ready. The solar failsafe ensures power is always available during daylight and the exceptional battery life provides years of power.

The build is a major asset for professional users. Extreme environments where cold, heat, wind, dust and debris are present will not present any challenges to the performance of this rock-solid sight. A titanium body delivers a durable base that shields and protects the interior components and battery.

Options are available for specific shooting scenarios and shooter sight preferences with the Multiple Reticle System-transition between a 32 MOA Circle & 2 MOA Dot, 2 MOA Dot, 32 MOA Circle.Parallax free and unlimited eye relief helps the shooter relax and maintain focus for longer periods of time.

The 508T V2 open reflex pistol sight is a major asset for any tactical and combat pistol shooter. It comes standard with a Picatinny mount, T10 L key, CR 1632 battery, lens cloth and full user manual. Made to perform and last, it’s a favorite for law enforcement, military personnel and self-defense.

    Holosun, for those who want to support the Chinese communists and their Army. Holosun, a Chinese defense industry entity.

      @American_Masculinist I dont, they just make a good product with features I want (dont have to pull the optic off my rifle to replace the battery for one) at a price I'm more than willing to pay.

      I try to buy American when possible, but if the home team is resting on their past reputations while foreign companies continue to innovate and pass them by, what exactly is my motivation to buy their products?
