## Holosun EPS CORE Unboxing & Size Compared to EPS Carry/EPS & More | FINALLY a TRUE RMSC Footprint!

The new **Holosun EPS CORE** is finally here, and I couldn't wait to get my hands on one.In this video.

I do a quick unboxing and compare the EPS CORE directly against the EPS Carry and the full-size EPS MRS.

The big deal with the CORE is the RMSC footprint, while still giving you a substantially wider window than the EPS Carry.

That's exactly what caught my attention because I wanted the larger EPS-style viewing window on a micro-compact without having a giant optic hanging over the sides.

I also take a look at the differences in window dimensions and explain why I personally would have preferred a little more height rather than additional width for better dot tracking during recoil.

And this is just the beginning! I'm putting the EPS CORE on my Glock 43X next.

Video:

I'd love to hear from anyone else who has one: EPS CORE, EPS Carry, original EPS?

Here's the first video in a series of size comparisons EPS Core vs. Osight SE, there will be many more to come!


EPS Core vs. EPS Carry

I used to run a full size EPS on a shield, I've never cared about the optic hanging over the side of the slide I'd rather have the bigger optic and just not worry about a minor aesthetic issue. Hell I run a Defender XL on my M&P that I carry frequently. The optic size doesn't affect the carry-ability really. They are all great optics though, I traded the EPS and got a really good trade so I can't say I regret it but I do want another one.

I would have done the same on my 43X, but I also had one od my 26's cut for the RMSc footprint, so it make more sense to put the full sized EPS there, especially since I knew the Core was coming out and planned on that for my 43X.
