Primary Arms SLx 5x MicroPrism - Another Good One?

[@BasementOps]

Finally thank you sir. You're the hero we deserve and need. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@325ydsallday]

FYI: the windage/elevation turrets aren’t labeled backwards. The describe the direction to rotate to move THE POINT OF IMPACT, not the reticle.

[@sluttybutt]

He knows. We all know. He was clarifying what he was doing whilst narrating for the benefit of the audience.

[@RealHankShill]

The same as all optics. Always move the impact to the dot, never the dot to the impact

[@ThePatriotParadox]

That's what he meant...on camera he was explaining when he said up, that it would be moving backwards do to how scope are labeled that way to zero correctly I think

[@joearledge]

Then Prism optics adjustments work in the exact opposite direction of every other scope and red dot from every other company. I'm holding it in my hand, and clockwise(righty tighty) is UP and RIGHT respectively. On most optics, clockwise(righty tighty) moves the impact DOWN and LEFT. It is entirely possible that this is because of the way prism optics work(optical physics hurts my brain). Or, they used Left hand threaded screws, or it's actually mislabeled. Won't know for sure till I sight it in, either way, it's not a big deal.

[@timrobinson6573]

I wish there would be an OFF position on the knob then 1-6 brightness positions then another OFF position then brightness positions 7-12. That way the user could stage their dial in the OFF position closest to what they most often use. This set up is even more practical with a prism since the reticle is always there even with the dial in the OFF position. Vortex does this with the Spitfire prisms.

[@Brimwald]

This has auto on auto off so it's not too big a deal. I think that feature you mention is more valuable with LPVOs with their short battery life

[@mtnbound2764]

you can just leave it in between the settings, though not 100% ideal it works well

[@timrobinson6573]

​@@Brimwaldthe auto on and off is a nice addition

[@Vermaelion]

The spitfire prisms dont have a shake to wake feature and their auto off only occurs after several hours. PLUS there is a passive parasitic battery drain even while the optic is off since the buttons are electronic. My batteries only last about a month and i dont live in a cold enviornment.

Just a heads up for anyone trying to pick between the two, the Vortex has 1/2 MOA adjustments, which I found a little frustrating when trying to sight it in precisely where I wanted it.

[@monstermash479]

I cant tell if its the video but the side by side between it and the spitfire 2 the image clarity at the edge of the lense seems seems way better on the vortex, the slx seems a little blurry to me

[@bghiggy]

@C_DOES back again with another banger

[@biggboysouth]

You are THE GO TO optic review channel. Thank you for another awesome review. I was itching to buy one of these but wanted to wait for reviews so I'm ecstatic that you were able to put out one of the first reviews on it. Personally I think I'll pass, although the light transmision was impressive the image and FOV for the price wasn't as much. I may take your advice on the spitfire gen 2 which I seen PSA selling for $199 last week. Essentially I want an ACOG RMR combo for not ACOG money. If I could make a review request, I've been really curious of the "Sig Bravo 4 Battle pack" but haven't seen a solid review on it. I've heard it has really good FOV and glass clarity but have yet to see anyone demonstrate it. It's a bit chonky but I'd be ok with giving up weight for better optical performance.

[@KeterMalkuth]

Something to remember is that the new version of the bravo 4 doesn't have as wide of an FOV as the old one. The old one had 10° versus 7.5° on the new one. The new one doesn't seem as compelling for that reason, given an ACOG has a 7° FOV. The microprism definitely has a restrictive FOV though, even G45 magnifier has a higher FOV.

[@Shane_Diesel_2010]

After experiencing the GLX 1x this weekend, I ordered two of the 5x yesterday. I am now replacing all my red dots with microprism scopes. My astigmatism does not allow me to see perfectly rounded dots on red dots anymore and the GLX 1x was so good and the glass is so clear the field of view to me is better than red dots. I won't even look back. Primary Arms offers military discounts so I'm able to get each 5x for about $70 less. I think it's worth every penny.

[@brunoparadigm3741]

I think one thing that should be mentioned about the Spitfire 5x that the built in RDS mount only accepts the Vortex red dot footprint which limits your options , especially since Vortex doesn’t make a NVG compatible red dot for that foot print. This is why I will get the PA 5x since it uses the MOS adapters giving you a wide range of rds you can add to the optic.

To anyone wondering between 5x Vortex Spitfire HD 2, and this optic: Either way you won't lose. Both are extremely close to each other and each one has a benefit, both have a decent eye box, and both focus pretty darn good at long ranges, compared to some long range scopes that defocus at far ranges. Look at both and pick which one you want in that 5x flavor.

[@Quality_Guru]

I have been looking at Prism scopes for some time, and the Primary Arms 5X MicroPrism is on the short list. We also got to see a comparison of it against the Vortex Spitfire HD Gen II 5x Prism Scope (too bad it has 1 MOA adjustments). The other that I have considered are the Lucid Prismatic P8, Element Immersive Series 5×30 (has a parallax adjustment), and the Steiner T536 5x36 5.56 Prism Sight. It would be worthwhile to see a C_Does Prism showcase. I believe that they all have advantages against each other, but only C_Does can separate the Wheat from the Tares.
