The ultimate concealed carry pistol deserves an exceptional optic to match, and there are plenty of options to choose from for the Sig Sauer P365X Macro. Here are our picks for the best EDC red dots you can run on your X Macro in 2024, along with our rationale for each choice.
First introduced in 2018, the original Sig Sauer P365 revolutionized the concealed carry handgun market by offering shooters 10+1 rounds of 9mm in a slim, compact firearm. Sig raised the bar again with the launch of the P365X Macro a few years later, combining the incredible ergonomics and concealment of the P365 platform with a slightly longer grip frame capable of accepting a 17-round magazine.
The P365X Macro is small enough to function as a year-round EDC pistol, yet it provides the capacity of a much larger full-size handgun. Naturally, these features resonate with shooters looking for a well-balanced concealed carry gun, as those that want a versatile semi-auto pistol with plenty of firepower and the option to run a light or optic.
Each P365X Macro is equipped with an optics-ready slide that is compatible with the ROMEOZero, as well as other direct-mount optics that utilize the RMSc footprint. Aftermarket adapter plates also allow shooters to install several RMR-pattern red dots if desired.
For our list, we're considering both direct-mount optics and optics that require an adapter plate, provided they satisfy the following criteria. A quality red dot should have a 2-3 MOA dot, solid battery life with shake to wake technology, and an exterior battery cover that eliminates the need to re-zero when replacing batteries. Here are our top 5 picks.
The updated variant of Swampfox's Liberty optic features multiple 3 MOA reticles in red or green, with 10 brightness settings and Shake N' Wake technology to preserve battery life. Additionally, it has a recessed window and an enhanced optics hood to protect the glass and internal components. You will need an RMR-to-RMSc adapter plate to mount it on your P365X Macro, but the Liberty II is a great budget-friendly option for everyday carry.
With automatic brightness settings and Holosun's Solar Failsafe, the 407C X2 multi-reticle optic is optimized for use on defensive handguns. This is an excellent companion for the P365X Macro because it affords a similar degree of adaptability for year-round performance you can depend on. If you don't mind running just the dot, a Holosun 407K would make for an excellent direct-mount alternative.
The Romeo1Pro from Sig Sauer Electro Optics is one of the best open-reflex red dots on the market for Sig pistols and was designed to mount directly to your P365X Macro slide. It utilizes an upgraded emitter for increased brightness and longer battery life, TruHold Lockness Zeroing System, MOTAc motion activated functionality, and includes a protective optics shroud.
For those who prefer the added durability of an enclosed emitter optic, the Steiner MPS packs tons of excellent features into a rugged yet lightweight package. High-quality glass and materials provide enhanced shootability in adverse conditions, plus the MPS has 8 brightness settings and an optional auto-off setting. And much like the P365X Macro, this optic improves functionality without sacrificing comfort or concealment.
Trijicon is the gold standard for what a concealed carry optic should be; the RMR Type 2 is sleek and compact, but has all the advanced features shooters expect at this price point. It features a 3.25 MOA dot and 8 brightness settings, with button lockout to prevent inadvertent adjustments when handling your pistol. Provided you have the right adapter plate for your P365X Macro, the Trijicon RMR Type 2 is without a doubt one of the best EDC optics money can buy in 2024.

While any red dot with the RMSc footprint will fit your P365X Macro, the above options are what we choose to carry. The Classic Firearms team has plenty of hands-on experience with the P365X Macro as well as it's big brother, the P320.
