Just put an eps carry on a sig macro and honestly can't say there is any other optic I would want on it.

[@fragger56]

@@andrewclodfelter3782 possibly a EPS for the slightly larger window size. Midway shipped me a EPS instead of an EPS carry so I'm running the EPS on my macro lol, fits my holsters fine and the overhang is barely noticeable.

[@andrewclodfelter3782]

@@fragger56 I did something similar. I didn't realize there was a difference and ordered an EPS. I put it on my Macro and almost said screw it and run it anyway. I loved the window size but the hang over on the sides of the slide forced me to return it and order a carry model. It fits much better. I just wish they made an acss with a dot for the EPS carry.

The 509 acss is nice on a 45 degree mount on a rifle. The chevron indicates the horizontal plane much better than a dot and thus helps establish a more precise zero.

[@maurelius135]

[@HotelBravo556]

Just a little thing to prevent confusion: the 509T v2 is just the 509T with a different button arrangement to avoid Trijicon’s lawyers shitting themselves for patent infringement. The 509T X2 is what you referring to in the video.

[@BrassFacts]

fuck

[@vegas0012121]

It has better glass too. It's noticeably less distorted on the X2 vs the OG 509T.

[@evey0259]

Not quite. The 407/507/508 all had V2 models that had larger buttons vertically aligned. The X2 revision saw them swap to small buttons horizontally aligned. The 509T never had the V2 designation, just X2 and non-X2. They were also never part of the Trijicon lawsuit since Trijicon doesn't make an enclosed emitter pistol dot. The big difference between the X2 and non-X2 was tinting and apparent magnification. The X2 was significantly flatter and appeared less tinted. Also, the button placement was consistent between both versions, it always had bigger horizontally aligned buttons.

[@roflchopter11]

I hope whoever at the patent office that granted the "big buttons and the up button goes on top" gets hit by a hypersonic 507C that falls off of a sounding rocket for some reason.

[@gsxraiders]

Does anyone know if the 509T sits lower than a 507C/EPS + rail mount adapter? Or if it's the same? I'm planning to mount one of these on my Taurus Raging Hunter.

[@basedWisco715]

I love my EPS. I've had it for about 9 months now, about 1k rounds through the 19x it's on. It's still on it's first battery, with daily carry and auto shutoff set to 2 hours (I believe.) I also left it outside overnight for a whole week during -20f weather to see what it would do, never noticed any issues at all

[@michaels5210]

I absolutely love my EPS. I have the larger one on a PDP compact that I carry every day. Open emitter optics get so dirty so fast if you carry it regularly. The EPS also maintains very clear glass with minimal distortion and blue tint. If you can fit it on something….. GET IT. It’s a VERY good EDC red dot

[@bearlee_accurate]

I’ll be stepping up as the Steiner MPS defender. When it comes to pistol mounting, the lower window is fantastic when you consider your back up irons, a specific concern to pistols, but a highly valid one at that. Mind you, I don’t see the irons as a “failsafe” in case the optic goes down, so much as an instant sighting solution when your dot potentially gets washed out. Either by your WML or sudden unanticipated lighting change to brighter than you have it set for. Or even something as realistic as aiming towards headlights. Where there is optic washout, there is going to be a great iron sight silhouette. That being said, trying to find iron sight solutions for the other options here is about as agonizing as trying to find one for the DPP. Until Unity Tactical comes out with some tall boy irons, you’re gonna struggle to get a good witness. My personal setup even rides on an RMR to ACRO plate, yet despite that, I get a perfect witness. (My standard being the rear sight valley is flush with the window. The iron sights I suggest for this is the Night Fision brand specific suppressor height because they are slight taller than traditional. They work fine for the 509t as well, though you get half the tritium vials through the window. Not to mention the 509t often has excessive glue around the edge being slightly obstructive to irons. If you have a direct mill ACRO cut, suppressor heights may ironically be too obstructive. Night Fision makes “optic height” which fills that in between of standard height vs suppressor height. The money you save between an MPS and an ACRO P-2 can afford you enough batteries for you and your grandchildren’s lifetime.

[@Right2Bexar]

Steiner MPS: The Good- Crispy dot and best one under nods imo, survived Run n Guns, rolling around at the range, and the occasional yeetings. Also, very clear window, emitter is on top which helps when shooting towards the sun. The Bad- 3-4 month battery life on the always on setting, older caps were a super soft aluminum so you'd destroy the cap easily when removing the battery. Also buttons are actually pretty hard to depress for a long period of time when trying to adjust the setting. ACRO: The Good - okay under nods but the dot is crisp during the day, housing is thicc but gets better after training, I'd assume it do well under torture (just acquired). Get to flex on the poors. The Bad- price, torx wrench adjustment, and sits pretty high compared the MPS so I lose my standard height rear irons. Buttons aren't terrible but do leave things to be desired. Holosun 509T The Good: budget friendly, water proof when sealed properly, great battery life, and okay under nods, surprisingly crisper dot than the ACRO (with my astigmatism). The Bad - honestly, just poor QC. I'm not anti Holosun because I keep buying them but I've had the glue that holds the lens melt off, canted red dots, large amount of fish bowling or distortion in the lens, and the side battery flying out under recoil even when torqued properly. Of course, all of this is anecdotal. Run your gear and figure out what you like best 🤙

[@dionysis84]

So….. which one would be the best for a backup 45* mounted dot sight off an mpvo for a 6arc you think?

[@cerrealkiller1]

I’m gonna have to take a look at my MPS again under NV, but I don’t recall having any issues using it for passive aiming. Lighting conditions were pretty nice that night though so that could be why.

[@mdfroman2235]

The STEINER MPS is my only MRDS-E that hasn't fogged due to temperature and elevation changes. The Aimpoint gave up just sitting on my G20 in a backpack after a trip to 10,000ft camping overnight. I got into my bag to put it on inside the Jeep with the heater on and it immediately fogged up before my eyes!.Aimpoint instantly gave me an RMA number and a shipping label but damn. The MPS has been on that same trip in colder conditions multiple times while I was still waiting for P2s to be in stock anywhere with no such problems. The substitute optic I only bought because there were no P2s available seems to be the better unit. I just have to feed it batteries every 90 days like a friggin EOTech..

[@patrick70335]

I will take EPD ALL day. it's fast to pick up and low mount height are awesome. There is a half-contender that's not mentioned here for the Sig shooter in some (most) of us: the Romeo 2. It's HUGE and anything that's not a full sized pistol is just silly, but it's bomb-proof. It's only a half-contender because it's enclosure is removeable which makes it's extremely versatile. the downside is you need a aridly dry environment to put the optic together in enclosed pistol optic configuration or it will fog up, but it has survived all kinds of torture tests. I put mine together over the winter where the air was so dry I had to wear a anti-static wrist strap in my house. no issues.

I have an Acro p2, got it almost a year ago, 6500+ rounds later it has an amazingly crisp dot, pretty good NV performance, etc but the acros have been plagued with issues, although my acro doesnt have any of the fogging issues that are common it does have some minor flaking of the paint in the sacrificial lense.

Curve ball, I bought the Sig Romeo 2, it's Aimpoint expensive, but I kinda like it more than my P2, it's got a much bigger window, smaller bezel, decent if quite small buttons, and very good NV performance. Drawbacks are it's footprint doesn't work with a lot of shit out there (unless you file front lugs off) and I hate that it isn't a dedicated enclosed red dot, because honestly if it was and used an ACRO footprint I would probably sell my other dots.

I also noticed the o ring to battery cap came detached as well. I will not trust my life or other Officers lives to this. The optic was literally babied during its very short life span on my gun.

My ACRO P-2 doesn’t hold windage zero (wanders about half a front sight width when manipulating slide). I’ve tried two different mounts and I’ve sent it back to Aimpoint with no success. Everything is torqued to spec with a torque screwdriver. Supposedly Forward Controls Design is releasing a heavier duty mounting bracket at some point to fix this. Has anyone else had this problem?

I see you’re getting wise to my nova games. Trying to get me learn more.

I have well over 10k rounds on a single 507c and around 5k for the t serious and absolutely zero issues as of yet.

My 509t was the first red dot I bought. Yes it's got a weird, like magnification on the glass on the edge. I'm fine with it, honestly. (It could be clearer) Yeah, it's weird, but I can still shoot good with it. It was pricey, though, when I got it. I think I wouldn't buy it again, though. I still like closed emitter dots.

The Harry Potter skit had me rolling 🤣

I dunno if steiner have changed it but on the MPS the recoil lug/mount pattern is ACRO compatible but the claw is slightly not, it only kinda fits but not with a lot of engagement because steiner are idiots, theres plenty of folks like Apex who make claws that fully engage the ACRO rail, this is noticeable long term on handgun slides.
