Holosun has changed the optics game again. What used to be seen as an ineffective feature of optics, optics with a solar backup didn’t negate the need for changing batteries. Holosun has released a new family of optics that change that, the Solar Charging Rifle Sight or SCRS.
The new SCRS optics take Holosun’s SCS technology and puts it into an ultra-compact 20mm tube sight specifically designed for rifles. With the multi-directional light sensors, the SCRS features an advanced auto mode that will automatically adjust the reticle brightness for the shooter. If the shooter requires a little more control in their shooting experiences, the optics come equipped with a manual mode so they can adjust the dot intensity as well.
Additionally, the reticle has eight daylight settings and four night vision compatible settings, all within a 7075-T6 aluminum housing and 22mm size window. The SCRS weighs just over 2 ounces, so it’s an easy addition to any rifle. Not only that, but it is IP67 rated and uses the Holosun 509T footprint so it can be used with aftermarket red dot sight mounts or the shooters can use the supplied mount.
According to the company, the solar charging optic is a great option for all shooters and environments, not just for the range or an average shooter. The Holosun SCRS optics line includes four different models and a price tag starting around $270.
