[@paulyp9853]

I agree about PA's prisms. I will always say until unseated - the PA Micro 1x is the most underrated optic I have or had. The eye relief is huge, its clear, can be magnified, and gets daylight bright. Although not as usable as a red dot - it is closest thing by far that isnt a red dot. If you have an astigmatism its an absolute no brainer

[@seanoneil277]

It's an incredible value. I've used it on an AR, and on a PCC for Steel Challenge. Haven't tried to put a magnifier behind it but it's so crisp and clear compared to a dot. The only thing that comes close IMO is the Holosun HS 403G ACSS, which is amazing with a 3x behind it, but not as good as the PA SLX 1x when run at 1x. This SLX 3x seems like it will be an improved version of the Holosun ACSS + 3x magnifier setup. I'd put a RDS on the prism and have a very lightweight, capable setup.

[@bthemedia]

I have multiple red dots and even tried the EXPS3 and Vortex UGH2 holographics… yet the PA Microprism Illuminated Etch Reticle just WORKS and is clear and precise! The holographics are the WORST with astigmatism.

[@domenik8339]

15 years shooting, tends of thousands of rounds down range and more than a few thousand dollars worth of training classes, here's the 1 paragraph scoop If you can get a BDC on your optic, then get one. This goes for any optic. Red dots are great for CQB inside of 100 yards and nothing else. Target identification is a thing. Holographic sights are good at one thing and one thing only. Night vision use. They suffer in all other departments, and some red dots are quickly catching up to their night vision ability. Flip to the side magnifiers only make sense when 75% or more of your shooting is expected to be within 100 yards. High quality prism optics are 90% as good as a red dot, but they can be even better than a red dot when they have a wide FOV and 2 or 3x magnification. An ACSS with 2x will beat a red dot because it's both fast AND can be taken out to range. A red dot can do that technically, but you won't be able to identify your target at that range so it's not very safe to do it, and it will always be more difficult to do than with a mangified prism with a BDC. Overall, most people should be picking these as their go to optics, they're useful in the most if not all common situations unlike most other optics that stutter or fail in one situation or another. LVPOs will slow you down to the point of being dangerous up close, but are ideal for mid or long range. A lot of people should consider running one, but they get heavy quick. Run an LVPO when it doesn't make sense to run a prism anymore (need more magnification, ranges are always longer etc.)

Damn dude, just stumbled upon your channel. Great review. I have this 3x in a 13.9 pin-weld I built and I love it. I was originally concerned with the speed I could use it for close up and once I figured it out I’m just as fast with this as I am with my Eotch and Aimpoints. Plus the fact that I have astigmatism, this optic is a godsend lol. I don’t always have my glasses on hand as I usually leave them in my range bag or car for driving at night. This is on my “go to” “shtf” bang stick. Loves this video and just subbed!! Looking forward to seeing more from your channel, thank you!

[@BravoJulietAlpha]

Well done. Thank you

[@joearledge1]

Hey, just wanted to let you know that when you were sighted in on one of the center targets at 100yrds, that was an excellent visual comparison of FOV, because the viewer can pause the video and count the number of target stands. I assume that the spacing and width of the target stands is constant enough over time to make FOV comparisons. Since you're there filming anyway, it would be really cool if you get a pic or vid of each optic sighted in on a center target so we can count target stands to the left and right in the FOV. Anyway, keep up the good work Sir, you're definitely my go-to for all things optics

[@kumarsalib722]

I would gladly pay more for this with GL glass. It's such a great optic and has the potential to be even better.

[@Ww-dl7vr]

[@justinrush6620]

Mine has been great to me but I'm thinking of selling for the 5x glad to see this video come out

[@paulyp9853]

I run the 5x on one of my setups with an offset red dot. I use the PA offset mount- not the piggyback. I really like shooting with that setup. Going 5-1,1-5 with a tilt is nice. One thing that I have heard/read that going from 1-5 is too much of shock when switching. Baloney. These same folks run and LPVO and throw it from 1-6 all the time.

[@Theloss52]

Great video.. I like the 3x with a red dot in my video games .. 2x makes a great fighting optic if you only have one, but I'd rather make close shots with a red dot and farther shots with a 3x. 5x would require a specific application

[@FMDad-dm5qo]

The Gen II version of the GLX prism could be a real monster. If I were PA, I would design it to put even more direct pressure on Trijicon and the ACOG line than the current GLX 2x does. If they could improve the FOV on the Gen II and not ruin the excellent eye relief and general usability, they’d have a really compelling optic. It would probably have to get a little bigger, but it’d still be lighter than a 3x prism-plus red dot combo.

[@CDOES]

I completely agree. Is like to see more Philippino made scopes from them. And hopefully ones that will perform better then their current glx line up optically. Physically they are excellent. But the 3-18 left me wanting much much more.

[@FMDad-dm5qo]

@@CDOES I would even accept Chinese made on the Gen II as long as they keep the same nice glass that’s on the current GLX 2x. My working theory- which is *speculative* but does seem to fit with the observational data in your videos - is that the 2x is a “GLX” because PA had it spec’ed out with the highest tier of optical glass the Chinese OEM could provide, while the SLX microprisms are maybe one tier down? This would also explain why the Vortex Spitfire II looked better than the SLX 5x in your comparison - maybe Vortex went with the higher tier glass, while PA , at a similar price point, is choosing to offer a significantly more feature rich prism with better reticle, illumination, adjustments etc. (though the Vortex does beat it in red dot mounting options) Again, just spitballing. And even if they’re not literally the same OEMs I would think the trade offs would be essentially similar.

[@hansblitz7770]

Needs a bigger FOV, improved more bold chevron and BDC. Keep it under 14oz, and under $500. Don't care if it is still China, but the Phillipines would be better. If Japanese, under $700.

[@FMDad-dm5qo]

⁠@@hansblitz7770 agree with all of this. I’d also prefer a slightly thinner ‘horseshoe’ in the reticle. With the 2x’s strong illumination (which could also be bumped up by one more setting on the Gen II) it will still be plenty fast and prominent.

[@matthockman]

Awesome review thank you. So for a one and done optic…. GLX!?!

[@DagaYute]

My only complaint with my 3x is my illumination knob is a bit stiff to use. Otherwise I would also pay more for an increase in glass quality to the GLX level.

[@domenik8339]

Glx glass is so, so clear. Like the top of the line $2000 glass 10 years ago is what glx glass looks like right now. How they can even manage to have a higher tier is straight up voodoo magic to me.

[@timrobinson6573]

Here's a question and potential video topic. What optics would YOU use on YOUR go to war rifle? Based on your experience testing optics and making videos.

[@khann844]

Not these! Acog/vcog are great choices. Durable etched reticles. What would you use?

[@texasranger24]

Great video. Can you take a look at the Holosun 507comp big window optic next?

[@ortiz73caify]

Great video and comparison! I think the GLX 2 is far superior. I have both and like the 2x the best. If you look at the SLX 3x it has a yellowish brown color on the edge.

[@Quality_Guru]

I watched a video in which a rifle had a red dot as the primary aiming point mounted on the top rail and a micro prism was mounted on a canted mount to the side. The reason was that in 2 gun matches the majority of shots are up close with only a few shots at distance. The advancement in technology with micro prism scopes allows for such a setup. It's completely different than we are used to, but it makes sense for an urban environment.

[@Quality_Guru]

For anyone interested it's titled "Emerging optic configuration: Offsetting a 3x Prism, the future is now!".

[@ryanpeck3377]

The main issue is that the 3x is going to be used for the longer shot. Shots where youll want to be extra stable, which is harder with the rifle canted. For 3 Gun where speed is everything it can make sense. However for real life/urban/shtf etc I think a 3x magnifier is the way to go. You can even get the primary arms 3x micro, which is this without an etched reticle and illumination. They do have a unity ftc mount for it

[@MrCannonls]

Great optic. Sure wish they made it in GLX. Would gladly pay more for the better glass.

[@baektpotato]

Thank you for this. It would be nice if you are going to further compare the 2x GlX vs others to get a better comparison video if you can source it again. Thank you

[@BrassCatcher]

I put one of the new PA micro dots on top of a spitfire 5x. The RS10 has autolive and NV settings with the docter footprint, the venom lacks those features. I put a PA cantilever mount under it to get a half inch closer to my eye while simultaneously ditching the vortex mount. The setup goes hard on my 14.5

[@FMDad-dm5qo]

Those PA cantilever micro mounts are really handy - ironically, more so for mounting other makers’ microprisms (which use the Micro T2 footprint) than PA’s own prisms (which don’t).

[@keithwong7001]

Great and thorough video. I am very curious to see how this optic compares to the Trijicon LED TA110 at 3.5x. That particular optic with green crosshairs is reported from Trijicon to have a 22+ week lead time in production and I could not justify waiting 5+ months for that optic. I picked up the SLx 3x to test as I already have a holosun AEMS and Eotech XPS. The Primary Arms definitely is a high quality optic and comes with a lot of mounting options right out of the box. I agree with all of your findings but would love for Primary Arms to take advantage of their prisms and etched glass to put more vertical and horizontal cross hair lines for holdover and windage. That would help these optics really compete with Trijicon. They can even charge more for such a dream optic as the SLx is really affordable at $300+ retail, and I still wouldn't have sticker shock. Keep up the great and honest reviews!

[@MichaelTravis12c27]

I put a 3X on my Springfield Hellion along with an offset mount for a micro RDS. It works, but it’s not at all intuitive. At 25 yards and beyond the 3x is pretty easy to deal with. Training with it inside 25 starts to get more difficult. Especially in low light. My astigmatism is fairly severe. I can deal with most red dots, though some are better than others. Eotechs are out of the question for me. Maybe I’ll try a 2x. I struggle with the offset. I’ve trained with M4s and Aimpoints for 30 years and have found it easier to adapt to a bullpup than to an offset optic!

[@mrmatt7210]

Primary arms offers a 12 o'clock mount in which to install a micro reflex site. This setup provides the best of both options for cqb and precision distance shooting.

[@hansblitz7770]

Practice snap shooting with just a quick presentation with the 3x. Get it bright, get the eye far enough back to be out of the eyebox, scan with both eyes above the optic, then snap shoot by letting the illuminated reticle quickly index over the target, then break the shot. With practice, it's relatively fast.

[@p47plane]

I've tried running a ton of prisms on a carry handle and the 3x PA is by far the best. I would love just a smidge more eye relief, but it gives about as good as you can get before dealing with significant tradeoffs.

[@VincitOmniaVeritas7]

I have a 3x MicroPrism and while I love its ruggedness and compactness, the short eye relief limits its use to basically an AR platform (I tried it on a MP5 and shotguns, no luck). If I feel I need an offset reflex sight for short ranges I’ll just use a LPVO with one or run a MAGNIFIER + Red Dot combo. Where I really think this prism optic could shine in on a very compact, very light .300 Blackout PDW. Just the prism and a flashlight to keep it slim. It won’t be a DMR but it’ll but it will be more than enough for shooting inside 300yd. It’s a compromise gun.

[@JNOSNOW]

I had the 3x on my 8.3" 7.62x39 Galil Ace and I took it off not long after, just went to nice irons. The holds are useless with the tiny reticle and even mounted as far back as possible the relief was not good enough for me.

[@VincitOmniaVeritas7]

@@JNOSNOW yeah, no way the eye relief is 2.65” as the manufacturer claims. It’s closer to 1.5” for me. I now mounted it on a .22lr AR. I’m not mourning it in anything with more recoil with a optic that close to my eye.

Question. I am looking for a rifle that can be used for close in HD all the way to maybe 400 meters. I would like a prism because of the sharp reticle and the no batteries. The x1 PA seems good for the close stuff, but for the range and precision I was thinking maybe adding a Juliet x4 with a QD mount that I would mostly leave off until I felt I would need/want it more. Do you think this would be a good option? I didn't want to go lpvo because of weight, and having this rifle's primary job of SHTF issues, I didn't want to have a higher magnification as mostly I would be shooting 0-200m, but then could add the magnifier for longer shots, recon, etc... rather than have a x3 or 5 prism with an offset.

I have one. Huge FOV. It's like a Sig MSR 1-6 with a thinner reticle, better eye box, and fiber dot illumination.

[@MrBogardus]

The 3x is a fixed power correct?

[@MalibuWaGOON]

Does ARD from the 1x fit the 3x?

[@blueridgearms]

No it does not unfortunately. The threading is pitched differently between the two. Also, the ARD hex pattern is slightly different between the 1x (bigger hexagons) and 3x (smaller hexagons).

[@TheHoriznLine]

I’m curious how primary arms other 3x prism is compared to the micro prism

[@hansblitz7770]

The standard is gigantic and has a bad FOV.

[@BorKagan777]

Can you shoot 3X with both eyes open? did your brain gets confused?

[@bghiggy]

Side note I wish they would just make a poverty acog. 4x fixed with fiber optic illumination, huge field of view, just ditch the tritium imo, It's barely useful and adds a lot of unnecessary cost.

[@FMDad-dm5qo]

I agree they should start making a run straight at the ACOG. Help shake Trijicon out of its govt-fed complacency.

[@filippocorti6760]

How much better is the GLx 2X than the SLx 3X for target acquisition as short ranges?

[@hansblitz7770]

The 2x is A LOT faster at sub 20 meters and anything moving quickly and up close.

[@filippocorti6760]

@@hansblitz7770Thanks.

[@randomfreedomlovingguy1536]

Have a scope I would love to send you for an honest review.

[@The_Critical_Critic]

I seen the SF II 5X as low as $199

[@pyaeger911]

Btw , my .458 can handle the recoil of the Swampfox Trihawk.

[@lidijabacic8348]

i would rather buy an old german fix power zeiss hensoldt s&b 4x or 6x , than these modern prisms. have an old hensoldt 4x. awesome glass, wide field of wiev. all you need.

[@theconsolecommander6914]

Why is it so small?
