Do the Holosun 507C and Holosun 507K use the same footprint?

No — they use different footprints, so they are not interchangeable. The Holosun 507C is cut for the Trijicon RMR footprint and the Holosun 507K for the Shield RMSc — running one on the other’s slide needs a different cut or an adapter plate.
