The Holosun HS507C X3 Gold Dot Sight (HS507C-X3-GD) is a 1x open-emitter pistol gold dot sight on the Holosun 507C / Trijicon RMR footprint, with the Multi-Reticle System — a 2 MOA gold dot, a 32 MOA circle, or both together as a circle-dot — in a 7075-T6 aluminium housing weighing 1.5 oz (43 g).
The gold emitter shows as a warm amber reticle that separates cleanly from red-painted steel, orange targets and autumn woodland, where a red dot can be harder to pick out. Everything else is standard X3: a revised housing with a forward-facing light sensor for adaptive brightness, Solar Failsafe backing up the side-loading CR1632, Shake Awake and Lock Mode.
How It Compares
For a single uncluttered aiming point in the same colour, the HS407C X3 gold dot sight drops the circle. The same Multi-Reticle System is available in HS507C X3 red and HE507C X3 green, and the HS507 ProMax gold dot sight is the larger-window competition option.

- Shooters who lose a red reticle against red-painted steel or autumn backgrounds

Frequently Asked Questions
What reticle options does the Holosun HS507C X3 Gold have?
The Holosun HS507C X3 Gold Dot Sight uses the Multi-Reticle System, which switches between a 2 MOA gold dot on its own, a 32 MOA circle on its own, and both together as a circle-dot.
What is a gold dot and why choose one?
The Holosun HS507C X3 Gold Dot Sight uses a gold emitter rather than red or green. It appears as a warm amber reticle, which stands out more clearly than red against red-painted steel, orange targets and autumn woodland. It is otherwise the same X3 optic as the red and green versions.
What footprint does the Holosun HS507C X3 Gold use?
The Holosun HS507C X3 Gold uses the Holosun 507C footprint, which is the Trijicon RMR pattern, so it fits RMR-cut slides and RMR-pattern adapter plates.
Does the Holosun HS507C X3 Gold have Solar Failsafe and Shake Awake?
Yes. Solar Failsafe draws supplemental power from ambient light and keeps the reticle lit if the CR1632 fails, and Shake Awake switches the reticle off when the Holosun HS507C X3 Gold has been still and restores it on movement. Together they support the 50,000-hour runtime rating.
What battery does the Holosun HS507C X3 Gold use and how is it changed?
The Holosun HS507C X3 Gold uses one CR1632 cell in a side-loading tray, so it can be replaced with the optic still mounted and zeroed.
What does the forward-facing light sensor on the X3 do?
On the Holosun HS507C X3 the light sensor faces forward, so automatic brightness is set by the light falling on the target rather than the light behind the shooter. That keeps the gold reticle correctly bright when shooting from a shaded firing point out onto a sunlit range.
