An In-Depth Introduction of the SLx 5x Micro Prism

[@believethehype8936]

In depth? Was hoping for some looks through the system.

[@palkoenergies7790]

God primary arms is KILLING it. Keep it up guys

[@archaicsage4803]

Every time I think I have my set-up right, they come out with something new that I need... 🤦‍♂️

[@MrKopamontanga]

I know it’s so ironic and annoying at the same time !!! But the uniqueness and innovation needs to keep on trucking the in the Gun industry , especially with all of the attacks from all sides

[@lionelcrown9629]

I need that pne

[@TylerJames-gf8ms]

Hopefully you guys come out with a GLX version that can piggy back a micro red dot towards the front of the optic.

[@deangullberry5148]

Don't know if you saw anything from Shot Show, but it will mount to the same base as the 3x that offsets a red dot. They also made a 12:00 mount that should be available Q2.

[@TylerJames-gf8ms]

@@deangullberry5148 that is nice. I did see that. I would like the 12:00 piggy back up front for passive NV aiming.

[@scoobarsteve7948]

Waiting for that release date 👀

[@CPT-nm9uj]

I wonder if this has the ability to be mounted to a carry handle like the 2.5X

[@michaeljones8146]

Will this come with green illumination in the future?

[@notme3184]

ETA?

[@biggboysouth]

When will these be available? Been checking your site periodically but it looks like they have yet to appear available.

[@bbaz6729]

Is PA going to offer this with a QD mount? The screws on most of the mounts are kind of cheap.

[@lucasblanchard47]

This seems like it would be really cool for an “all around” option, especially with the offset red rot mount added to it. I’d be very interested in this or the 3x microprism for my next optic.

[@KryptiicKarnage]

Has this came out yet? I’m not able to find any info on it

[@JediSwordMasters]

When will this be available? I'm waiting to place my order asap

[@deangullberry5148]

I kept my 5x gen II prism, even when the cool kids said you have to have an LPVO. When I saw the Shot Show coverage that it can use the 3x offset mount, and that you're developing a 12:00 rds mount, I decided that change is a good thing.

[@frederichartell7390]

When will this be available?

[@jackdangers3292]

Will there be a GLx 5x eventually or should we hop on this one?

[@renz7589]

I’ve really been looking at the 3x prism mounted low on my squirrel gun, but I’m glad I waited!

[@dirkstaff1732]

Why you want to shoot those cute lil' squirrel brah? Feed the critters, hunt the criminals... ;)

[@k9up13]

Wish you would come up with a horseshoe/red dot reticle for this as another option.

[@naruto9tails15]

Any chance of a micro prism that can toggle between 1x and 5x?

[@thegreenman2030]

Love my 1x Gemini and 3x 7.62x39 SLX micro prisim optics.

[@BertShackleford]

If you [Primary Arms] were to upgrade the micro prisms to the GLx line; what would that entail? What would the overall improvements be to the GLx line versus the SLx line of micro prism optics? I ask this because I prefer the GLx and PLx line of optics for obvious reasons that shall not be mentioned. Last thing I want to do is get my hopes us or purchase a plethora of optics only to replace them shortly afterwards. There are no junk drawers in this house. With that being said, may _We the People_ formally request _more_ various optics in the GLx and PLx line? Please and thank you. Now if you could somehow expand upon the Micro Prism line under the GLx category (or even PLx), then I would gladly purchase twelve without hesitation. I was excited for the new SLx Micro Prisms when they debuted but not impressed. In fact, I was hoping for a Micro Prism utilizing the GLx or PLx level of quality. The discerning eye notices the differences between all three optic levels. Lastly, should you choose to make this requisition happen. May we get a Green version as well? Green seems to be the superior color here in the extremely bright deserts of Arizona. Nonetheless, these new additions to the Primary Arms optics line has been intriguing to say the least. Stay classy my friends.

[@VR-vv2qe]

Is the eye relief the same as the old one? How is the eye box? Is it as tough as the old one?

[@Mills141]

This guy either doesn't know or isn't telling us anything 🤣

[@invertedpolarity6890]

Video posted over 3 months ago and this is nowhere to be found.

[@SA-xf1eb]

This is great. Definitely gotta have one. I've always wanted an acog but I don't want to spend $1k on it. This is a viable alternative.

[@Insectoidoverlords]

Does the piggy back mount work with the flash hider as well?

[@NCSUFutbol]

Hope y'all can do a 5x version of the GLx 2x and also make it in FDE. Something a little bigger that can piggyback a red dot would be a acog killer

[@riversavage5608]

I am interested in this optic.

[@fixedG]

Color me intrigued. Within an ounce of the Vortex 5x Spitfire but with the mil grid as an option. Lacking the piggyback micro dot is a deficiency but a lot of shooters who aren't shooting under night vision prefer a 45° offset anyway. The question of field of view remains.

[@nickolasmartin7161]

In the ARFCOM video they showed a 12 o'clock piggyback mount that will fit the microprisms.

[@x60mmx]

As a big fan of the 5x36mm, first; The adjustment turret caps on the GLx 2x should be standard. Period. Pure pleasure. I much prefer my 5x, but the 2x is just flat-out superior in zeroing. It's a pleasure having turret caps for zeroing. Second; green is better. I'm not going to lie, I'll stick with my 5x36 PA for my current build but, when I build my next rifle these will be the questions. Can I use my turret caps for zeroing, and is it green? No? Then I'll stick with my gen 3 5x36. I have to assume the light transmission for the 5x micro is inferior to the normal 5x. That being said, I'd purchase the 5x micro if it had turret caps ala the 2x so I'm not scrounging for dimes, and were it offered in green. God bless. And shrink that chevron. Keep the horseshoe beefy, but bro . . . shrink the chevron!!! It ain't beefy enough on the 2x, but it's too beefy at 5x.

[@mangrumpyold1871]

What is the field of view vortex has 23.3 feet/100 yds and Primary Arms 3x has 38.00 ft/ 100 yds. I hope Primary Arms can match the 3x or at least beat the vortex FOV.

[@HawaiiFoodAndFun]

And when we say in-depth we mean brief and in the nose-bleed section

[@texasranger24]

Something that would be really cool for micro Prism sights would be a version with the included offset reddot mount already included in the regular mounting base. Not even 45° offset, just 30° offset or whatever the lowest angle is you can incorporate. Make it ready to screw in the SL-15 red dot at the perfect height to switch between the 5x prism and the red dot. A factory ready setup with the perfect height and a small offset angle that still works without bumping into the prism would save a lot of people both money and a headache trying to make it work with 3 different manufacturers of parts. And no, unless you want to use the red dot for night vision only, top mounting doesn't work. Although a prism with an offset and a top red dot might be cool too.

[@texasranger24]

ohhh, and a factory included killflash honeycomb thingy up front

[@or6060]

this isn't in depth at all. no new info

[@deadspeed6679]

Can this be paired with magnifier?

[@tungmiyaynusnbahls8936]

Are you high?

[@edwardx.winston5744]

MSRP? FWIW, I already own an SLX 5x prism optic (gen. III) but I would consider this as an upgrade due to smaller size, lower weight, and shake-to-wake.

[@hansblitz7770]

$275ish Quoted from this same guy in a shotshow vid.

[@Mills141]

Where is Dametri? How can you have an "in-depth" look at something that you hold up and don't show the NEW reticle... PA is the reticle scopes. We choose $300 with ACSS over $1500 scopes without. If you are the in training guy I understand but let us know like 'student drivers' deal or did everyone else get to go to shotshow?

[@jarredburlington]

Please take my money, when can i preorder.....

[@OldDirtyDaniel]

What’s the release date?

[@korcla5668]

I think I saw something saying Q1 or Q2 of this year🤞

[@mirekslechta7161]

I have their 3x microprism and it is perfect up to about 200m, at longer distances small targets are hard to be seen. Therefore 5 times is far better option, on the other hand you most likely need to add an red dot- means more weight, more things to worry about... I do not know what is better now....

[@sylaconnocalys8443]

A red dot doesn’t weigh that much man. Also modern red dots are pretty sturdy so not much of an issue there. I think 5x is the better option.

[@mirekslechta7161]

@@sylaconnocalys8443 I will get it probably next year. I have 3x just new :) It is perfect when I concider the weight and size. Incredebly good. But...for this price I would like to try 5x too. I wonder whether it would hold zero if rifle would fall for instance, but I am not going to test my rifle and scope that way :) I always liked Trijicon Acog , but I never bought it - not just because of price, but also because of small eye relief. ACOG is hard to destroy I guess.

[@jammbbs1688]

Monstrum did it

[@jammbbs1688]

Which seems to be the Simpsons did it but with optics

[@or6060]

[@DrWolfensteinz]

Monstrum is an objectively terrible comparison to make as they are glorified airsoft optics.

With monstrum you gotta double the optic weight tho

@@HawaiiFoodAndFun And half the quality of PA as well.

[@hansblitz7770]

Look, nerd. Those are junk.

[@texasranger24]

Would it be possible to get your daylight bright fiber illumination into the prism sights?
