This video reviews the Primary Arms SLx 3x Magnifier Gen IV and the Holosun HS503G ACSS red dot sight. It explores whether magnifiers are still a relevant option for home defense. The content emphasizes that all firearms are unmodified and used safely on a range under supervision, and explicitly states no firearms are sold or advertised through their social media. The video is intended for review and entertainment purposes.
The Holosun HS503G, manufactured for Primary Arms, offers a compelling budget alternative to Aimpoint sights, retailing around $219. It features the versatile ACSS reticle with BDC capabilities and a 'circle of death'. While slightly heavier and with a minor blue tint and parallax shift compared to premium optics, it boasts a 50,000-hour battery life with auto-on functionality. After extensive testing with 10,000 rounds, it holds zero reliably, making it an excellent choice for most shooters, though professionals may still prefer Aimpoint for duty use.
This video features a comparison of an AK-74 equipped with a 4x ZFK scope against an M4 with a Holosun HS503G and Vortex 3x magnifier in a competition setting. The stage involves engaging steel targets at distances of 200-300 yards in field conditions and various shooting positions. The video aims to evaluate the performance of both rifle configurations and their respective optics, particularly questioning the effectiveness of a red dot with a magnifier at longer ranges. The competition is hosted at the new AZ2G match venue at Cowtown, Peoria, AZ, and is noted to share similarities with the 2G-ACM match format.
The Holosun HS503G with ACSS reticle offers a budget-friendly micro red dot sight with impressive performance. It features a clear, daylight-bright reticle, excellent battery life, and accurate BDC holds for medium ranges. The included mounts provide versatility for ARs, AKs, and shotguns, making it a strong contender against more expensive options.
