Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main advantage of an enclosed pistol sight like the Holosun EPS?

Enclosed pistol sights protect the internal LED diode from environmental contaminants such as lint, dust, and debris. This ensures the sight remains functional and the reticle is always visible, unlike open-emitter designs which can be obstructed.

How do the Holosun EPS and EPS Carry differ?

The standard Holosun EPS is designed for full-size pistols, while the EPS Carry is a more compact version specifically tailored for slimline concealed carry firearms, offering a reduced profile for easier concealment.

What does the Holosun EPS reticle consist of?

The Holosun EPS features a versatile reticle system that can be configured as a 32 MOA circle with a 2 MOA dot, the circle only, or the dot only. This allows users to adapt the aiming point to their preference and the shooting situation.

What is the Holosun 507K footprint?

The Holosun 507K footprint is a specific mounting pattern used by Holosun for many of their micro red dot sights, including the EPS and EPS Carry. Many pistol manufacturers now offer slides cut for this popular footprint.
