I purchased a new Mako R7 but am waiting for the county amendment to my ccw permit (gotta love NY!). Anyway, I bought the optics ready version and was wondering if anyone knows who makes a Dot (green preferably) that will directly fit the gun. I contacted Holosun and they replied that an adapter plate is needed for the 507K X2, and the plate is out of stock from C & H Precision.
Any recommendations are appreciated.

Thanks, Rob

He was wrong.
507k X2 has an RMSc footprint.

Any optic with an RMSc footprint doesn't need a plate to mount on the Mako.

Mounts directly to the slide.

Thank you! I was thinking it should but thought I would check with the “Manufacturer” to be sure. Uhhhh, not so much I guess.

Thanks! You live in a beautiful state that we might think of moving to sometime soon 😊

This is actually wrong.
The Holosun 407k and 507k use the Holosun "K" footprint. Very similar to the Sheild RMSc footprint but the two rear lugs for the RMSc footprint interfere with the Holosun. The Holosun only uses the front lugs and does not have a cutout for the rear lugs on the optic.
So you do need an adapter plate.

Holosun 407k on Sig p320xl (which has the RMSc footprint).
No plate.

I can't speak for the Sig optic footprint. It could be a modified RMSc footprint that does not have the rear lugs.
I can assure you that an adapter plate is needed for the Holosun on the Mako.
C&H Precision and TACRIG make adapter plates.

Sig has the RMSc, Joint, Shield, etc footprint.

Also have a CTS1550 Pro on a OR Mako (not the Ct1500 that comes on the OI Mako).

CT1550 has RMSc footprint.

The CTS1550 will fit the Mako because the it has a RMSc footprint.
All I am saying is the RMSc footprint and Holosun "K" footprint are not the same.
You can mount the RMSc on the Holosun "K" footprint, but not the other way around.
Feel free to call Holosun or Kimber.

All I am saying, is the Holosun 407k X2 is sitting on my Sig with no plate.
The Sig has the RMSC cut.

I also have an R7 Mako OR (optic ready) that was purchased without the optic, and we added the CTS 1550 pro after the fact.
No plate.
The CTS 1550 pro has the RMSC footprint, as listed on their website.

The Sig does not have a true RMSc footprint. I just looked up an image of it.
See below. The RMSc has 4 lugs.
The Holosun K footprint in the next image only has two lugs.
The Sig is using a Holosun K footprint. That is why it fits.

 

[bad ninja]

Well shit.
You are right.
I'm actually glad you pointed this out.
You both saved and probably cost me some money.😃

 

[Rob38jr]

Thank you both, bad ninja & tbRick, you both saved me time and money and taught me something which is win, win, win!

I too have been waiting for the C&H Precision plate and it appears that from my conversation with them yesterday that there was a problem with the first plates they offered for it and had to remake the plates to correct the problem. They are currently in the production process somewhere in their system.
Here is the Holosun base. Crinson Trace does make a Green Dot in their RAD model which looks closer in profile to the Holosun but still has the bottom loading battery.

@bad ninja and @Rob38jr glad I could help

 

[Rob38jr]

So I received the Swamp Fox Sentinel optic today and it fits the RMSc footprint fine but the factory cover plate screws are too short and the screws that came with the optic aren’t the proper diameter. It came with M3’ and M4’s but neither one of these are the same as the factory screws. Does anyone know what size these factory screws are? Thank you

 

[Stephen S]

HERE IS ANOTHER COUPLE OF PHOTOS THAT COULD BE USEFUL. The BLANK COVER PLATE that comes with the Mako with optics mounted. It is nice they provide a plate if you want to remove the dot sight.
Here i the comparison between that plate and the Holosun 507Kgr The Mako plate is on the left.

This plate fits the Mako/507k x2 combination perfectly...I have both. I suggest using longer screws to mount it though.
