I still didn’t understand, please told me.
what is the micro red dot used for?
This was super helpful and exactly what I was looking for. After visiting Holosun’s website and seeing all the different red dots with similar names, I had no idea what the differences were. Will most likely go with the 503CU or 503GU. Thanks!
What is the L then?
L indicates a new, improved model that retains the features of the previously introduced model. So, basically a freshened version of an optic.
