Does a Holosun 507C fit a Trijicon RMR cut?
Yes. Holosun states the 507C uses the industry-standard RMR footprint, so it mounts to an RMR cut directly. The 507K is a different footprint.
Holosun says so on the product page itself: the 507C uses the "industry standard RMR footprint", which allows direct mounting to optics-ready slides cut for it. Where the slide is a genuine RMR cut, no adapter plate is involved.
| Footprint | Trijicon RMR pattern |
|---|---|
| Adapter plate on an RMR cut | Not required |
| Holosun models sharing it | 407C, 507C and 508T — the full-size open-emitter line |
| Holosun 509T (enclosed) | NOT RMR footprint — needs Holosun’s own 509PLT-507C adapter plate |
The confusions worth heading off are inside Holosun’s own range rather than between brands, and there are two. The 507C and the 507K differ by one letter and do not share a footprint — the K is the smaller sight built for subcompact slides and will not mount to an RMR cut. And if what you want is an ENCLOSED emitter, the 509T is not an RMR-footprint sight either: Holosun sells a 509PLT-507C plate precisely because it does not drop onto an RMR cut. Everything in the list above is open-emitter.
Caution: A slide sold as "optics ready" is not automatically RMR-cut. Confirm the cut the manufacturer actually milled before ordering — the footprint has to match at both ends, and the sight sharing a pattern with the RMR says nothing about what is machined into your slide.

- Will a Holosun 507K fit a Glock 43X MOS?Usually not without an adapter plate. The screws line up, but the factory cut has four locating posts and a Holosun K optic only clears two.
- What red dot fits a SIG P365 without an adapter plate?Anything cut for the Shield RMSc footprint. The optic-ready P365 slide is milled for it, so RMSc-pattern sights mount straight on.
- Does a Trijicon SRO fit an RMR cut?Mostly. The SRO uses the RMR footprint, but Trijicon requires a mounting kit on Glock MOS, Springfield OSP, Walther PDP and HK VP9.
