Gold sits between red and green and gives strong contrast against bright, washed-out daylight backgrounds. Auto-brightness sets the reticle to the ambient light, Lockout Mode stops the settings being knocked in a slip, and the side-loading tray means the battery changes without unmounting the sight. The 6061-T6 aluminium housing is IPX8 rated and tested to 1000G.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow It Compares\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe same sight is offered as the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/holosun-aro-evo-red-dot-sight-2-moa-dot-solar-failsafe-aro-evo-rd2\"\u003eARO EVO red dot sight\u003c\/a\u003e and the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/holosun-aro-evo-green-dot-sight-2-moa-dot-solar-failsafe-aro-evo-gr2\"\u003eARO EVO green dot sight\u003c\/a\u003e.

It is the plain-dot member of the ARO EVO range, so there is no circle and no reticle switching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWill the Holosun ARO EVO co-witness with AR-pattern iron sights?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The Holosun ARO EVO is supplied with both a 1.63 in (41 mm) lower-1\/3 co-witness mount and a low mount, so you can co-witness with standard AR-height irons or sit the sight low on a rail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat battery does the Holosun ARO EVO take and how long does it last?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Holosun ARO EVO runs on one CR2032 coin cell and is rated for up to 50,000 hours. Solar Failsafe supplements the cell in daylight, and the side-loading battery tray lets you change the cell without taking the sight off the rifle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the Holosun ARO EVO an enclosed gold dot sight?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the Holosun ARO EVO uses a fully enclosed 26 mm window and the 6061-T6 aluminium housing is rated IPX8 for water immersion and tested to 1000G, so mud, rain and debris cannot reach the emitter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow does the ARO EVO differ from the ARO MRS?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ARO EVO has a larger 26 mm window, adds Solar Failsafe and auto-brightness, and uses finer 0.5 MOA clicks. The ARO MRS uses a 22 mm objective with 1 MOA clicks and no solar panel, and is the smaller and lighter of the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIs the Holosun ARO EVO night-vision compatible?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The Holosun ARO EVO has 12 brightness settings, of which 8 are daylight settings and 4 are night-vision compatible, so the dot can be dimmed far enough to use behind a night vision device.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Holosun","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58434898493784,"sku":"ARO-EVO-GD2","price":229.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/2005\/3592\/files\/holosun-aro-evo-gold-dot-sight-2-moa-dot-solar-failsafe-aro-evo-gd2-1.jpg?v=1789007556","url":"https:\/\/opticstrader.co.uk\/products\/holosun-aro-evo-gold-dot-sight-2-moa-dot-solar-failsafe-aro-evo-gd2","provider":"Optics Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
