Cheapest ways to mount it
How this slide mounts an opticS&W's manual and product page say the Equalizer's slide is cut for an optic, "a new optic cut pattern", and name no footprint; the manual says to seat the sight on the alignment pegs and use the screws that came with the sight. C&H sells Equalizer plates of its own for Holosun K and 509T optics, so no optic is listed as bolting straight on here.
On this modelS&W calls it the Equalizer and says only that its slide has a new optic cut pattern, with no footprint named.
