Holosun Red Dot

**Proud Pennsylvanian** · September 23rd, 2023, 07:41 PM

I received from Springfield Armory, a new Springfield XD slide with an optic cut and a Crimson Trace CTS-1500 red dot Optic for my XD9mm with a 4" barrel. The optic must be removed to replace the battery. The CTS-1500 also has a cover to use when the pistol is not in use to prolong battery life. What Holosun optic with shake awake & battery replacement without taking the optic off will fit the slide?
And what type mounting plate will the Holosun require? Can the CTS-1500 mounting plate be used for the Holosun?

I just swapped a CT-1500 on my Kimber R7 Mako with a Holsun 507K X2, green dot. I bought an adapter plate from C&H Precision. 5 minute install. Really like the green dot with my old-man eyes. And the battery is loaded from the side.

Post a pic of the plate. Does it have 2 recoil posts up front or 4 on all 4 corners?

Most likely the existing plate will work and you can get either the 407k or 507k which both have different features and prices.
