Very quick review and demonstration on the new Holosun EPS Carry pistol red dot optic. Is mounted on my gen 5 glock 19, being compared to a gen 5 glock 17 with an RMR (gen2).
I appreciate your video showing the EPS Carry on the G19 width slide. Versus most people putting the larger EPS(non-carry) version on these slide widths. I have a G19X on the way and will be getting the slide milled for a Holosun. Was planning on the EPS but now I feel the slightly larger window of the EPS is not enough of an advantage to overlook the excess overhang. The EPS Carry looks to fit VERY well on the G19 slide. Thank you!
Your video alone is what months ago influenced me into getting my Glock 26 milled for the EPS carry. Couldn't find any other videos out at the time showing how the smaller carry version fit exactly flush with the one inch slides of the double stacked Glocks. The whole video was well done. Have since purchased two EPS carry in red ( MRS and 6 MOA ) and one full size EPS 6 MOA in green. Thanks, Eastern Armory.
Make sure you buy aftermarket screws for the EPS carry. The ones out the box are no good for the G43x/48. M4X 11mm M3H are the ones I bought and work great. Holosun does not disclose this info and it pisses me off. Buyer beware.
Thanks for the review and info about the mounting plate. I’ve got an EPS carry that I’m going to mount on a H&K P2000SK. If I get another EPS carry I may put it on my Glock 19 MOS (it’s currently got a 509T on it).
EPS carry looks great on some bigger guns like the H&K VP9. On that gun the Carry hangs over the edges of the slide and doesn’t look right, whereas the EPS carry looks perfect.
Nice review man. That’s a good auto brightness demo. We have a video covering all holosun pistol optics if you want to learn more about each, they have so much it can be confusing
I swap out my G19 with my Macro, depending on how i feel somedays. I've got the EPS Carry Non-MRS on the way for my Macro to replace my 407k, (Tired of the lint build up on the lens) and after doing some research, and watching this and a few others, this convinced me to skip the SCS and get another EPS Carry for my G19.5. I wasn't aware of the DogTag plate, and wasn't sure I liked the front 'lip' on it, but now I think I am kind of digging it more then I thought. I may send back my freshly arrived CHPWS MOS-K plate, and order this plate if the CHPWS one is loose like I've seen on some other videos.
My G17 has a direct cut for EPS :) Made in USA doesn't matter as long as the quality control is good. China invented gunpowder so it's not a big deal. I run an EPS Carry on my Shield Plus and also have a 509T on my Beretta 1301 Tactical.
Different places have been getting shipments intermittently, try signing up for notifications at Primary Arms and Big Tex Outdoors. Usually sell out within a few hours though.
The EPS Carry is great. Upgraded from a 507Kx2 32 MOA circle with 2 MOA dot to an EPS Carry 6 MOA green. Much faster sight acquisition for EDC and less clutter in window. Wish I had switched long ago.
I haven't been beating on it too bad, but its been seeing every day carry use for about a year, and maybe 1000 rounds or so of 9mm. No issues thus far, but I would consider this "light use".
Put apex triggers in them Glocks….. you can thank me later 😉 it will help you shoot even better with your optics you will probably shoot up all your ammo! It’s that good 👍🇺🇸 stay safe shooter thanks for the video review them apex triggers 👍🇺🇸
I just like the look of the rmr so much more. I can’t afford the rmr but I’m going to save just for the look. It’s stupid I know but I don’t like the look of any other red dot

Thanks, Eastern Armory.
exactly what i was looking for. as most people are opting for the "full" size EPS. I needed to make sure it was flush with the slide !

Holosun SCS is perfect for the MOS. No plate required.
SCS isn't enclosed though. Enclosed has a number of advantages, when you shoot in crappy weather, and is way easier to clean if you get it dirty

Holosun make the best pistol optics imo. They're an American company that manufacture in china. If trijicon made the eps carry it would cost $900.
Yeah you aint lyin. Id probably be one of the suckers buying the $900 triji lol
Made in us type guy WHILE using a Chinese phone or camera 😂😂
Have you found yourself wanting the full size EPS or are you still satisfied with the Carry size?
I use the SCS, I prefer the dot and circle reticle and in green. I find the dot-only jumps around too much.
Is it possible to mount a mrs on the g17 gen5 with a universal mount plate?
Thanks for your time! this helps
Iv got rhe carry on a 365xl.
Best dot I own so far.
Nice!!
Is the 2MOA better that 6MOA?
Where did you end up finding the eps mrs? Everywhere I look it’s “coming soon”

I got mine from GT Distributors.

@@miles2675 months later do you still feel the same way? I’m stuck between the 507k and eps carry Mrs😮💨
Great review!
Will the EPS co-witness with suppressor height sights?
Watching in 2024. Thinking of getting the EDC g19 directly milled for the EPs carry. Can i ask how it’s held up long term???

Still enjoying the eps carry on the Glock 19?

RMR definitely looks better, is less bulky. I'd tend to trust the durability of the RMR more so than the holosun stuff, but time will tell
The only problem I have with the rmr is the battery placement and having to re-zero every time you replace the battery.
Glock isn’t made in America either, get a Shadow Systems gun
Glocks are also made in Georgia, have been since 2013.
