Reviews & Ratings for Holosun ARO-EVO 1x26mm Reflex Red Dot Sight — 2 reviews — Page 1

Red dot has 2 mounts , i used lower mount better height alignment for me. Solar power has better battery life and being turned on when picked up or any movement has sight turned on and ready to use at any moment

From the perspective of someone who arguably has a stupid number of optics: This is solid offering.
When I saw these were rolling out, I clicked for in-stock notification - primary interest is the updated form and 26mm in this price-point.
This size in my opinion has to be the "Goldilocks" for red-dots now. The plethora of 21-22mm dots has acclimatized us all to these small viewpoints when focusing on weight & compactness. For crying out loud though - you don't always wanna be rocking a 30mm red-dot on every rig, such as a PCC.
With advancements in design, materials, and manufacturing we're getting silhouettes now that are sleek and uncluttered, without protruding knobs and what-nots, which allows for more usable lens space such as the 26mm.
Controls are simple and great, brightness is where you expect it, included mount seems solid, it has the perfect starting height of lower 1/3 CW, glass is clear and has just a touch of blue tinge that isn't overly distracting to me.
I fight against some astigmatism, and this dot is good for the price-point and works well with a couple magnifiers I tried on it.
Just got it so I can't speak to durability yet but will certainly update if any issues.
It's a shame that Holosun isn't U.S. made, but they're often tough to beat in bang for the buck.
All in all - gitchu-summa-this!
