I agree! The balance is quite different, which can affect your aim. Do you find one easier to quick-draw than the other?
Honestly, I think both are excellent choices, but the EPS is a bit lighter, which I like for quick-draw situations. It’s all about personal preference!
Lightweight can be great, but how does that play into long-term durability during heavy use?
For me, humorously, I dropped both during practice - the EPS survived, but I scratched the 509T! That said, both held their zero, which is key.
That’s wild! Seems like both might be tough, but it’s good to know they hold their zero under stress. Reflecting, I do like how the EPS feels lighter for everyday carry.
I’ve installed both the Holosun EPS and the 509T on my Glock. The EPS was super easy to mount, and it has a clear user interface for adjustments. The 509T is great too, but I found its mounting a bit trickier.
That’s good to hear! I’m leaning towards the EPS myself because I’ve heard it has a great battery life too. Have you had any issues with it after long use?

The EPS definitely shines with its user-friendliness. As for zeroing, both sights had their quirks. The EPS has easy-to-use turrets. I spent a bit more time with the 509T figuring out its adjustments.
Nice! What’s the process like for zeroing the EPS? Any tips would be appreciated!
For zeroing the EPS, just start at 25 yards and make small adjustments. It’s pretty intuitive! It’s actually quite friendly for first-timers, which is a big plus.
I’ve also used the 509T and found its interface a bit less straightforward, but it’s very durable. Just be patient with the settings, and you’ll get it right!
Good to know! Are there any specific tips for adjusting the brightness on it?
Adjusting the brightness on the 509T is done with a dial that can be a little sensitive. Start with the lowest setting in low light and work up! Trust me, you don’t want it too bright in a dark environment.
Hilarious to hear that! I keep mine on the bright side just to annoy my buddies at the range! But seriously, I think both sights cater to different needs.
Haha! Love that! After all, it’s about finding what fits best for you, right? Both options seem solid.

It really is about personal preference! I’ve enjoyed the experience with both sights, just taking the time to adjust and practice is key. Reflecting on it, I think the EPS might edge out slightly in ease for beginners.
