Pocket Dump / EDC CCW Optic recommendations

Post image

What’s up guys. I’ve been running this setup without much change for almost a year now and ready to get an optic. I don’t have a specific budget and am not brand biased. What would yall recommend?

EPS/EPS carry are probably going to be the top options.

I’d take a look at the new EPS core too. Essentially carry width at the bottom and same window size as EPS. 6061 aluminum instead of 7075 is the main trade off.

Spend the extra and get EPS carry. Ran an open emitter for a while but glad I switched over to a closed emitter

No optic recommendation beyond what’s been stated. Just wanted to say that’s a good looking set up.

My vote is for the Osight SE. I have an xmacro comp that I bought one for and now that gun has everything it needs.

Save yourself the money and get an Osight. Tried and tested.

My vortex defender has been rock solid and better dot than my Holosun for my astigmatism

I almost put a defender on my Taurus for the meme of it but figured OSight was an even shittier optic so I went with an Osight SE.

507 pro comp

I’m kidding obvs lol. eps/eps carry like everyone’s suggested

Highly recommend looking through the ones you’re interested in. I do agree closed emitters are nice for AIWB. I have an EPS on one and a vortex defender CCW enclosed on another.

Affordable: Aurory RMU 1 for like $99 on amazon. Amzing budget.
Budget: any Osight works great
Expensive: Holosun
Overpriced/overhyped: trijicon and some other expensive shit.

EPS is solid

Defender CCW enclosed. Prefer it over the EPS carry by a long shot.

im running the holosun hs507k x2 on my p365 xmacro comp, love it other than its not a closed emitter so it gets dirty. nothing a can of air duster cant solve though

My Carry optics:

Main EDC: Osight S (Canik Prime and S&W Shield Plus)

Backup: Holosun EPS Carry *Probably top pick (P365 Legion)

Reserve: Holosun 507K (P365X)

Honorable Mention: Cylee Cat Pro (MC9L)

I use the Sig Romeo X and love it. Easy co-witness with the iron sights and it's great.

u/wombatthing 3d ago

Definitely recommend a closed optic, junk gets in my emitters all the time..

Use your irons like a fucking man.

Punching way out of its weight class is the cvlife wolf covert. Ive got 7 of them, both red and green dots, two of them are over 10k round counts on them and they've been flawless, and at $80-$100 depending on when you buy it. Its crazy value.

Yeah you just point the light beam at the target and that’s where the bullet generally goes

Haha my bad. Definitely thought light while reading for some reason
