    Seems that Trijicon has its sights set on Holosun and is seeing red on patent violations, specifically focusing on their RMR and SRO.

    I have been looking for a holosun pistol sight, but every time I look to buy one in red color, they seem to be out of stock.
    The major thing is pricing, but if the holosun loads from the side, then I have little use for trijicon.
    Holosun is priced according to chinese labor costs in part. I suspect that trijicon could lower the price if they had to.
    I will need multiple of those sights in the future.

    Well, I just ordered one with 2 minutes dot and 32 minute circle. They said shipping could be up to 16 days. Well I will see what happens if I get it or not.

    I read a little more and yes what I ordered is on the list.
    “Despite knowledge and actual notice of the ‘541 Patent, Holosun has continued to offer for sale and sell the Accused Products to customers in the United States without the consent or authority of Trijicon,” the suit states
    Even if Trijicon wins, the Chinese really do not care. They will likely be sold at gunshowa bearing a different name brand on them.
