ALL NEW Vortex Defender ST Red Dot

This comprehensive review by Regular Guy Training LLC details the performance of the Holosun 507 Comp after 35,000 rounds. The instructor highlights its robust reliability, consistent turret performance, and suitability for duty and competition.

Despite these minor issues, the optic is deemed a solid, proven performer, especially compared to other open-emitter designs.

This review assesses Vortex's updated Defender series of enclosed red dot sights, including the ST, CCW, and the budget-friendly Venom Enclosed, alongside the unique Viper SG for shotguns.

The Viper SG is noted for its specialized shotgun mounting solution.

The video argues that the Trijicon RMR is 'mid' compared to newer optics, citing significant parallax error at 25 yards.

The importance of training with optics to leverage their benefits is emphasized.
