The Holosun EPS Core Gold 3 MOA Enclosed Pistol Sight (Model EPS-CORE-GD-3) is a premium enclosed emitter red dot optic designed specifically for pistols. Featuring a crisp gold 3 MOA dot, solar power with battery backup, Shake Awake technology, and a slim base for a lower mounting height, the EPS Core delivers exceptional performance in a compact and durable package. This optic is ideal for concealed carry, competition shooting, and defensive use where reliability and a clear sight picture are essential.
Enclosed Emitter Design
Unlike open emitter red dots, the Holosun EPS Core features a fully enclosed emitter. This design protects the LED and internal components from rain, snow, dust, and debris, making it significantly more reliable in harsh weather conditions. The enclosed housing also helps prevent the optic from being damaged during everyday carry or rough handling, providing peace of mind for users who carry their pistols daily.
The Holosun EPS Core combines an enclosed emitter design with a gold 3 MOA dot, solar power, and Shake Awake technology in a slim-profile pistol optic.
Gold 3 MOA Dot
This model is equipped with a gold 3 MOA dot. The gold color provides excellent contrast against a wide variety of backgrounds and is particularly effective in bright daylight conditions. The 3 MOA dot size offers a great balance between precision and speed, allowing for fast target acquisition while still providing enough precision for accurate shots at typical defensive and competition distances.
Solar Power with Battery Backup
The EPS Core utilizes Holosun’s advanced solar power technology. The built-in solar cells automatically power the optic during daylight hours and help extend battery life. When light levels drop, the optic seamlessly switches to battery power. This dual-power system ensures the optic remains operational in virtually any lighting condition while significantly reducing the frequency of battery changes.
Shake Awake Technology
Equipped with Holosun’s Shake Awake technology, the EPS Core automatically turns on when it detects motion and powers down after a period of inactivity. This feature helps conserve battery life while ensuring the optic is ready when needed. Users can customize the sleep timer settings to match their preferences and usage patterns.
Slim Base for Lower Mounting Height
The EPS Core features a slim base design that allows for a lower mounting height compared to many other enclosed optics. This lower profile helps maintain a more natural cheek weld and reduces the overall height of the pistol when the optic is mounted, improving concealability and handling for everyday carry users.
