I bought a Holosun 507C a few weeks back for another project and immediately fell in love with the ring / dot reticle. So I decided to get a Holosun for my Glock 34 gen 5 MOS. The SCS seemed like the way to got and I got it installed today. "Installed" sounds a lot more complicated than it is, actually just use the two M3 screws that come with the SCS and bingo, it's on the slide.
First off, I am very impressed with the quality of the Holosun. The manufacturing quality is really good. The sight looks robust while still being compact. The SCS looks and feels like a top of the line product. Fit and finish are great. It looks like it might have come standard on the 34.
I love the green color of this optic. My 65 year old eyes seem to like it better than the red on my other red dot sights. I have products from Vortex, Docter, Shield, a Russian red dot, Eotech and a Holosun 507C. I am looking forward to trying it out at the range.
The glass has a slight bluish tint but is still ver sharp and clear. I can instantly pick up the reticle.
When the sight is turned off, the standard Glock open sights are as easy to use they were without the sight. I actually like the stock Glock sights. OK, I admit it.
I do sort of wish it was possible to adjust the reticle brightness manually. There is an override to increase the brightness, but I would feel better if I could choose between manual or auto as on the Holosub 507C. This may not turn out to be a problem once I get it to the range.
The on off button is a bit hard to activate. Don't cut your fingernails too short! On the positive side, I think it will be practically impossible to accidentally hit the button.
The only real sticking point - and this seems to apply to most Holosun red dots - WHY don't include a silicone cover in the box with the damn sight? Having to go back and order an extra cover any pay like twenty bucks for it does not leave me smiling. So increase the price if you have to, but include a cover with the sight!
All in all, I'd say this is THE sight to get if you have a Glock with MOS. It's compact and still easy to acquire while allowing for full use of the stock Glock sights. And did I say I love that ring dot reticle? Yes!
