      I run Aimpoints.
      Nice, when I got into red dots I started with Trijicon RMR. Still have an RMR, but I prefer the Holosun. Not having to remove the optic to replace the battery is awesome. Not that re-zeroing in an RMR is not hard, but not having to re-zero is even better for me.

        I know folks that work there and try to support Trijicon whenever possible. I have to admit that it is getting hard to ignore Holosun as they are releasing good products with more features at a lower price.

        Trijicon is a huge supporter of the MI shooting sports community and frequently donates several scopes to the prize table at events. They have also donated scopes to our church and other local churches that hold fundraisers that bring outdoors opportunities to youth and the less fortunate.

                If Trijicon had kept up with tech improvements, I'd still be using them. But they haven't kept pace like Holosun has. My first micro red dot was a T-1 probably a decade ago, and since then they haven't done squat.

                Trijicon may have originally invented some of the tech, but Holosun kept refining and improving it while Trijicon sat on their butts.

                You snooze you lose.

                Instead of getting off their asses and cranking out better products than Holosun, they sue instead of perform. That seems to be the American way anymore.

                  These days it would be hard for me to purchase a Chinese optic. I will admit I have in the past, no more. Just won't do it. I will find an alternative or pay more. I'm fine with that.

                    I do dislike the fact that holosun is made in china, but it has way more features than trijicon. When trijicon beefs up their game and starts making innovative products again, then I'll buy.

                        First bad is Holosun is made in Chine; second issue is that they probably stole most of the design features. In this case there are plenty of non-Chinese options that are adequate.

                          I like what holosun puts out but if I can dish it out I’d get the better products out there. Nothing wrong with liking either one.

                            I know it isn’t exactly the topic here but the Trijicon 3X magnifier is made in chickity-china.
