The Holosun ARO Evolution with solar green reticle is a modern enclosed reflex sight built for shooters who demand reliability and speed on target. This is the green-reticle version of Holosun's ARO platform—a departure from the red-dot standard, but one that appeals to hunters and competitors who find green easier to acquire in bright daylight or on certain target backgrounds. The enclosed design protects the lens and electronics from debris and weather, while the solar charging system means you're not entirely dependent on battery life to stay in the fight.

Holosun has engineered the ARO Evolution to mount directly to any Picatinny rail, and this particular model ships with a lower-1/3 co-witness mount. That puts your sight in line with most rifle backup irons, letting you shoot confidently even if the optic fails. The green reticle sits in that sweet spot for daylight shooters: brighter and more visible than red in sunny conditions, and less fatiguing over long sessions than some alternatives.

Whether you're running this on a hunting rifle, a 3-gun gun, or a modern sporting rifle, the ARO Evolution checks the boxes for durability and fast-target acquisition without the bloat of magnification. It's a tool that gets out of your way and lets you focus on the shot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between this green-reticle version and a standard red-dot?

Green reticles tend to stand out more sharply in bright sunlight and against green/natural backgrounds. Some shooters also find green easier on the eye during extended shooting sessions. The ARO Evolution platform is the same; this one just swaps the standard red for green.

Will this sight work with my rifle's backup iron sights?

Yes. The included lower-1/3 co-witness mount positions the optic so your existing back-up irons remain visible and shootable if the sight ever fails.

Does it come with a mount?

Yes, the lower-1/3 co-witness Picatinny mount is included with the sight.

What powers the green reticle—battery or solar?

The ARO Evolution uses a hybrid system: solar panels charge the reticle during daylight, and a battery backs it up when light is low. This dual-power approach extends total runtime and provides a failsafe if you're shooting indoors or at dusk.
