Anybody have one what is your review? Thinking of adding a couple to the safe for pistols.
Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    Mine didn't work. I had to pour a bucket of cold water on it to get it to wake up.

    I have one and like it. Sometime I have to tap the side to wake it up. Battery lasts a long time.

    I don't have a Holosun but I do have a Truglo with the shake awake feature.  I really like the shake awake feature.  It is on an AR as a bedroom gun.  If something goes "bump in the night" picking up the AR and having the red dot come on is way better than trying to find a little button in the dark while being a little fuzzy/scared/confused from being woke up from a sound sleep!

    Not cheap, but I have a Meprolight MP20 (M20P?) Holographic sight. ($400) It gathers Ambient light to function, and as it gets darker, it switches over to full Tritium mode. I am extremely pleased with it.

    The Tritium is guaranteed to be fully functional for 10 years. I understand the Israeli Military Uses them.

    They are available in a wide variety of reticles. I chose an X reticle. Fast aquisition but still a crosshair, if you have the time.

    A solid well made sight. Built in rail with 2 cam levers for fast on/off.
