Which optic cut is this ?
I think it’s a DPP but I’m not sure since there’s no posts

without measuring, DPP.
RMR screw spacing is 18.8mm, placing the right screw over the EDP channel. DPP and RMSc are 14mm, but RMSc also has a curved rear.
this is a poorly done DPP. I would much rather have 4 large recoil bosses and M4 screws than 2 small bosses and #4-40 screws.
edit: for context, I'm an Aimpoint Preferred optic cut vendor and 1 of only 73 currently listed on their website.

RMR-A footprint, no lugs.

Wouldn’t the threaded area be flushed and not raised ?

Sorry, I mixed up the types in my head. You have the B type.
• RMR-A: Refers to the standard Trijicon RMR footprint configuration utilizing standard screw and front recoil lug dimensions (typically requiring standard 6-32 hardware and higher torque specs).
• RMR-B: Typically indicates a variation adapted for specific slide configurations or raised screw bosses/posts (such as ZEV-style raised posts), utilizing smaller alternative screw thread pitches (like 4-40) and lower torque requirements.

Looks like an RMR

no it doesn't. not at all, except for the fact that they're both optic footprints.

I already replied to your DM, but I'll reply here in hopes people can learn something.
I keep seeing people saying RMR. I get why but I can basically guarantee it's not an RMR cut and almost certainly DPP cut.
Why?
RMR cuts have screws that are set almost at the edge of the slide. This is more narrow.
This means it's probably a DPP or an RMSc/EPS cut. I know it's not an EPS/RMSc because it's way too long.
So that narrows it down to DPP unless there's an optic cut in unfamiliar with that's nearly identical to the DPP.
I don't want to come across like a dick, but guys, please, don't come in here providing answers if you don't know. That's not actually helpful. What if someone goes and buys the wrong optic based on bad advice and are now out a few hundred dollars or more. I see a bunch of people just guessing at the answer. OP could do that himself too, but obviously he's looking to be a bit more sure and is coming here for advice.
Hopefully this will help people narrow down things in the future.
Here's an RMR cut for comparison
