The Holosun AEMS CORE X2 Gold Dot Sight (AEMS-CORE-X2-GD) is an enclosed-emitter rifle gold dot sight with a single 2 MOA gold dot reticle, a 1.1 × 0.87 in (28 × 22 mm) viewing window and a lower-1/3 co-witness mount supplied in the box.
It is the simplest member of the AEMS CORE X2 line: no Multi-Reticle System and no solar panel, just one clean aiming dot. The gold reticle sits between red and green in the spectrum and gives strong contrast against bright, washed-out backgrounds such as chalk banks, snow and pale targets. The X2 optical system reduces parallax by up to 50% against the previous generation, and Shake Awake gives up to 50,000 hours of runtime from a single CR2032.
How it compares
The same optic is available as the AEMS CORE X2 red dot sight and the AEMS CORE X2 green dot sight. Step up to the AEMS PRO X2 gold dot sight for the Multi-Reticle System and Solar Failsafe. Browse all gold dot sights and straight-pull rifle optics.
Ideal for
- Civilian Service Rifle and practical rifle shooting on straight-pull AR-pattern carbines
- Practical shotgun and 3-Gun stages shot in bright, open conditions
- Target and gallery rifle work where a high-contrast aiming dot helps on pale faces
- Airsoft skirmishing and training rifles that need a sealed, weatherproof dot

What reticle does the Holosun AEMS CORE X2 Gold Dot Sight use?
The Holosun AEMS CORE X2 Gold Dot Sight uses a single 2 MOA gold dot reticle. It does not have the Multi-Reticle System, so there is no circle-dot option and no reticle switching.
Why choose the gold reticle over red or green?
The gold reticle of the Holosun AEMS CORE X2 Gold Dot Sight gives extra contrast against bright, pale backgrounds. Everything else is identical to the red and green versions of the AEMS CORE X2.
What battery does the Holosun AEMS CORE X2 take and how long does it last?
The Holosun AEMS CORE X2 runs on one CR2032 coin cell and gives up to 50,000 hours of runtime. Shake Awake switches the dot off when the rifle is still and wakes it the instant the rifle is moved.
Will the Holosun AEMS CORE X2 co-witness with AR-pattern iron sights?
Yes. The Holosun AEMS CORE X2 is supplied with a lower-1/3 co-witness mount, which sits the dot high enough that standard AR-height iron sights appear in the lower third of the window.
Is the Holosun AEMS CORE X2 night-vision compatible?
Yes. The Holosun AEMS CORE X2 has 10 daylight brightness settings and 2 night-vision settings, so the dot can be dimmed far enough to use behind a night vision device.
