I got the correct screws and didn't use a plate. BUT... I did install a Metal Shim Plate at the back to remove the minor amount of slop when the EPS Carry was installed. I found that without a shim plate, even with the proper screws fully tightened down, I could move the optic ever so slightly. It was enough to shift my point of aim by an inch or 2 at 20-25 yards. Which to ME was totally unacceptable.

I was watching your video about using/not-using the provided plate for the Holosun EPS Carry on a Sig P365 optic ready (has the X slide). Out of the box, Holosun provides 6 mounting screws. 2 are 6-32 x 12mm 2 are 3-0.5 x 10mm 2 are 4-0.7 x 10 mm They do not provide 4 of the same type ( 3-0.5 x 10mm) screws with "2 for spares". If someone doesn't realize that, they could potentially damage their slide. Just thought you would like to know.

I noticed that without the spacer , there is a gap between optic and slide . It’s not noticeable at first glance. But when you hold the handgun up against some lighting you can see the eps carry sits flush in the back , but has a gap towards the front of the optic and slide. I shot it both ways , no issue , but ended up installing the spacer . Took care of the gap. I noticed this gap on 365 tacops, macro , and regular 365xl, with eps carry. The 507k seems to sit flush on the slides I tried it on. Just some info

bfgprecision is correct... The gap is only because you're using the long screws that came with the optic. If get the Fdez Werx screws or have Holosun send you the correct screws, there is no gap. The optic fits tight without the plate, no wiggle/play.
