Holosun EPS Carry vs Trijicon RMRcc

By Cole Harlan, EditorUpdated Nov 5, 2026How we verifyEditorial standards

The biggest cited difference is the footprint: Holosun lists the EPS-CARRY-RD-2 as an enclosed sight on a Direct Mount K Footprint (with an RMSc-to-K adapter plate included), while Trijicon lists the RMRcc 3.25 MOA model on its own RMRcc footprint, which is neither the RMR Type 2 nor the K. This is the RMRcc, not the full-size RMR. Figures are copied from each maker’s product page, checked November 5, 2026.

Like for like: *Trijicon’s product-page SPECS list 1 oz (28.35 g), while Trijicon’s RMRcc spec sheet lists 1.2 oz (34 g) with battery. We use the product page in the table and note the sheet here; Holosun’s 1.23 oz is its body weight, so the bases may differ and we compute no gap. The battery-life figures use different settings (Holosun: 50,000 hours at setting 6; Trijicon: over 4 years at setting 4 of 8), so we do not convert or rank them. Trijicon also lists a 6.5 MOA RMRcc (CC07); this page covers the 3.25 MOA model. The $734 is what Trijicon’s page printed on the check date, not a street price. For the full-size RMR see EPS Carry vs Trijicon RMR Type 2.

Which to pick (on paper)

If your slide is cut for the K footprint: the EPS Carry. Holosun lists Direct Mount K Footprint and includes an RMSc-to-K adapter plate; Trijicon lists the RMRcc as its own footprint. See the footprint chart.
If your slide is cut for the RMRcc footprint: the RMRcc. Trijicon’s page says the mount is not included.
If you want the emitter enclosed: Holosun labels the EPS Carry enclosed. See enclosed vs open emitter. We did not read an enclosed or open label on the RMRcc page.
If you want the larger dot: the RMRcc at 3.25 MOA against the EPS Carry’s 2 MOA.
If battery type matters: the EPS Carry uses a CR1620 in a side tray; the RMRcc lists a CR2032.

We have not range-tested these; facts above are from the makers.
