Holosun 507C X2 vs 507K X2: Size, Window and Footprint

Both use a CR1632 and Holosun rates each at 50,000 hours, but they are not drop-in swaps: the 507C X2 mounts on an RMR footprint, and the 507K X2 mounts on Holosun’s K footprint. Every figure below is copied from Holosun’s own product pages, checked November 4, 2026.

Footprint and slide fit

Holosun’s 507C X2 page says “Direct Mount RMR Footprint” and “Industry standard RMR footprint allows direct mounting to a wide range of optics ready pistol slides.” The 507K X2 page says it is “Designed around the Holosun K footprint” with “Direct Mount K Footprint.” An RMR-cut slide takes the 507C; a Holosun K-cut (or MOS-K) slide takes the 507K. They are not the same cut.
