Slim Pistol Optics
Posted by Zmantech@reddit | Firearms | View on Reddit | 9 comments
Looking for a slim Pistol optic that's enclosed and don't want holosun or sig.
Any recommendations I'd prefer rsmc so it would go directly onto my pistol. Problem is most enclosed are for thicker (glock 45 P320 size).

There's the new primary arms enclosed emitter, I don't know if it's actually for sale. Anyway the EPS and 509T are phenomenal enclosed emitter optics, as well as the newer sigs.
If you want to look for sub optimal options that's your choice, but buy products that are tested and proven if this is something your life will depend on.

My eps carrys gyrosensor just failed and I also don't want any more Chinese optics.
My problem is sig is they're footprints aren't good but I may just use sig.
Anways the primary arms htx (not for sale to the general public yet), eps and 509t are both thicker than the slim I'm looking for.

And my acro p2s emitter broke on the inside and became a maraca. Whats your point? Shit happens, if you can see about a warranty replacement. It's still a phenomenonal optic none the less. In my case Aimpoint had a new P2 to me within a week and half thankfully. Holosun customer service has been very easy to work with in my experience when helping customers at our shop, even when the issues were caused by user error and not factory defects.
At the very least see about getting it warrantied so you have something for a while until you find an alternative. If you want to get rid of it at that point gafs and tac swap are great places to resell that newer one should they replace it.

I second this! Yes, I had an EPS fail. Holosun replaced it in under two weeks. Asked them if it is typical, they said “No. That is why we have a 10 year warranty on them.” I had ~5k rounds through with that optic. I still have 9 years left on that warranty. So I’m good sticking with them for the time being!

My ACRO's front lens popped out in under 2,000 rounds. About 10,000 later the emitter broke on the inside lol. It's not a common issue, I think more people have issues with fog or water on the inside than what I dealt with. They were quick to set me up with a new one no charge.

Sig optics are Holosun.

Like sig optics are made by holosun?
I was under the impression sig optics (at least Romeo x line) are assembled in us and are sourced from NATO countries.

Shield AMSC and Meprolight MPO PRO-S may be two to look at. I don’t have any experience with either though.

Well then you're going to have to invent one yourself because what you're looking for doesn't exist.
What you're looking for will probably never exist, lol
