I was born and raised here. Does that make me an expert on Hawaiian culture?


Yes

This happened to me as the tray is very snug for my Holosun. So when I popped it out, IDK which way the batter was because it flipped like a coin.
You have a 50/50 chance of being ok, or test yourself as if the dot went down. Flip the battery before every course of fire.

That reminds me, watch the screw on the battery door. I was in a class where two guys lost the screw for the battery door. Range ground was all rocks, so no chance to find.

Another possibility is upside down battery.
Someone asked him that.  :rofl:

He reported it was working previously and just went out. Did some research and seems like some reports of bending contacts and short initial battery life. I use all Duracell or Panasonic batteries, and will change if it comes with another brand.

Red dots are the perfect tools for short attention span shooters. If I was in a situation that close I'd just run. I hate running but I run 9-12 miles a week because I am fat. In a situation, I'd run get to a "safe place" call 911 and whistle for my big dog.

There’s also quality in batteries. And prob how long said battery was on the shelf.

A buddy has their battery die when on the range recently. It was Holosun that he bought new recently. I would also expect the battery to be good, but no idea how long the battery was on the shelves at Holosun (or whichever company).

But yeah, best to change regularly. I have battery meters, but even those aren’t super reliable indicators.

But, if you’re like CMO, you’re proud when the optic fails and can experience it.  ;D

What’s the reason why SB1230 went through the JHA and FIN House committees last year versus SB3196 just being referred to only JHA this session?

SB1230 went to finance because money was involved.  The CCW fees.
