HOLOSUN’s HE509T-RD provides all of the benefits of the company’s expansive lineup of red-dot sights while adding an enclosed titanium housing.

Turning from an open to a closed reflex sight provides many benefits, not the least of which is the protection of the emitter from the elements.

The added speed that comes with RDS aiming slows down pretty quickly if ice, mud or dirt gets in front of the LED, blocking its path to the sighting window.

In the new Holosun’s case, the added real estate atop the housing provides room for a solar panel.

Together with the panel’s battery backup and the on-board CR1632 battery, this optic can run for up to 50,000 hours. For more details on the new Holosun HE509T-RD, visit
