Primary Arms SLX 1X MicroPrism - Green Illuminated ACSS Reticles

Best optic for the money. It's small, clear and comes with great options to mount it to your desired specifications.

Easy to mount, sight in, clear reticle, lights up bright, holds zero, and light weight. Seems to be very well made. I feel this purchase was money well spent.

I got astigmatism so all dots are huge. This is a tiny, crisp chevron. This let's me aim small and miss small. It feels like a computer mouse. Just point the little chevron/cursor and click and you hit. Ive been shooting irons for 25 years and within a single mag I was shooting better with the prism. Theres no learning curve. Just mount it as far back as possible and keep both eyes open and you can't miss.

If you have an astigmatism like I do buy this sight! It's light, clear, and far better than a red dot!

This little optic is nice! the glass is super clear and you can tell PA is producing great products! Reticle is nice (maybe a little too small for me) but no problems at all! The light settings are great but the only main issue I have is that the focus ring is a little tight! Great value and competitive! Will be trying out other optics from Primary Arms...

I have this mounted on a 12 gauge pump action shot gun. It works well and has great illumination. The reticle is quite small and being a chevron is sometimes difficult to focus on with my old eyes. The illumination itself is quite red and I would say gets daylight bright. It comes with an assortment of mounting options and the tools for install and this makes installation a snap. I've had it on the gun for months now and its still on the first battery, so I cannot complain about its battery life. For under $300 I am extremely happy with this red dot, and for the money it is an excellent optic. Also I cannot complain about its clarity. I have a Trijicon ACOG for a while, and this is the only experience I can compare it to as I am just starting to get into optics. But, I do not see a difference in the glass quality (I'm sure there is one, but I cannot see it) and the reticle, when illuminated, is almost as crisp. My only complaint is that it did not come with the sunshade and a fall caused a piece of aluminum to break off where the sunshade would have threaded in. I'd rather have paid $20-$30 more to get the sun shade included as I am convinced that having the sunshade installed, as it is aluminum as well, would have prevented that damage. This is my reasoning for 4 stars instead of 5. But the rest of the optic, you know the important stuff, is working like nothing happened at all. I now have the sunshade installed and I really like this little prism optic!

Received with great protective packaging. High end component and materials. Very clear glass, etched reticle alignment is perfect and impressive brightness. All adjustments are nice and tight and I'm sure they will loosen up with time to some extent. Accuracy of reticle at ranging marks was spot on. Very impressed with materials and workmanship of this optic and I will likely be purchasing more from this company. Durability remains to be seen, but I'd wager it will be extremely sturdy and capable of long term reliability.

Awsome

While I understand the intent of this microprism, it just didn't work for me. Firstly, I found it very difficult to mount to my firearm - probably because no instructions were included nor were any makes/models of firearms listed as being compatible. Maybe its from years of always closing one eye to see through the scope that made this a difficult learning curve, I don't know. I will say that the microprism feels very solid and well built though. It is small and should not add much bulk to your firearm. I feel that maybe I need a lot more practice and patience to use this properly. Any maybe some professional guidance.
