Vortex micro 6x magnifier. Watch this before buying!

[@AverageBlueCollorMan]

Can you do a video showing down the sight with and without magnifier down, to give me a better idea if I should buy it?

[@tacticalfun]

Will do

[@stevenarellano5425]

I’m trying to decide if I want the micro 3 or the 6x. So that will help a lot. I’m looking at buying a new magnifier.

Simple, to the point. Very helpful.

I got today the 6x with the ai point t1 ,no problem at all….I am very satisfied ,I have open and close a lot of time and nothing unopened

Hows that 6X is it still holding up chief?! Im debating between the 3X and the 6X!

Im shopping this vs G45 and im running exps2-0 & newest 2.25" riser/Unity Omni flip to center-down mount that works w the Vortex 6x. I want the extra body length of the 6x vs the shorty Eotech G45 so I dont have to be as far into the charge handle to make eye relief(deleting the rail irons) so the diopter will be further back past the the charge handle over the buffer tube(i got a POF big ambi handle to grab at) so im not worried about magnifier/charge handle real estate. I assume youve looked thru a G45 and the micro 6x? Which one to get? Money isnt a problem but ill gladly save $200 and get my ergo's if the thing looks as good/better than G45 downrange?

[@tacticalfun]

I have both and they are very similar in quality. I have the new omni mount and will do a video soon

[@onarip8751]

I’m in the same boat Eotech exps im looking at g45 vs this 6x

[@waltero3035]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about it!

[@central5550]

Hey buddy! What can you say about mount in this magnifier, cause I read that it have some problem. “Every time I flip the magnifier to the side, and then flip it back upright, I have to re-center the red dot.” Can you give your advice?

[@tacticalfun]

I have had zero issues over hundreds of flips

Get some videos on the range. I have an EO tech Exps 2 with 6x magnifier. Love it

[@andrewdelvalle4622]

What 6x do you have? I have that eotech and am looking at the new primary arms glx 6x. Wish it came with a qd mount tho

[@smashnmash1807]

MUST WATCH CLICKBAIT, didnt even fucking shoot it for the review....

[@tacticalfun]

I couldnt figure out how to load it. Could not shoot.

[@kennygp2004]

This or a Vortex PST Gen2 1-6? I'm torn as I like a LVPO with an offset red dot. Thank you for making this video.

[@tacticalfun]

Both are good options. If you shoot mostly 200 yds and in but occasionally need a longer shot i would go with the magnifier

[@Kennoisewater123]

Super easy question . Get two rifles and go with both :). Running dot and magnifier on pistol and lpvo on carbine

[@Magdumper]

What are your updated thoughts on this vs the G45? With omni mount?

[@tacticalfun]

This. It is now on my 11.5 virtus

[@geofalke]

I keep seeing reviews of people complaining about the mount being inconsistent with its alignment with the optic when flipped back and forth. Have you noticed any alignment issues with your eotech? I own a uh-1 gen 2 and have been thinking about getting a magnifier for it so your input would be greatly appreciated.

[@tacticalfun]

I have had no issues

[@seanuh60]

What's the price and weight compared to the 6x eotech?

what do you think about this magnifier with a leupold freedom rds? Thank you

[@tacticalfun]

I have not used the freedom but it should work perfect.

[@lurtiskoe]

how is the flip to side mechanism holding up? considering one of these... also, have you tried a traditional red dot with it? does it make the dot HUGE?

[@tacticalfun]

Mount is holding up perfect. The dot is pretty big but not obnoxious

[@CrazyPsych0B]

How’s the eye relief?

[@tacticalfun]

2.5" not bad

[@kennygp2004]

@@tacticalfun what about the eye box? Do you have to have your head in the perfect spot or is it forgiving?

[@witnessgem2503]

Love this man really helped out

[@robertnewman4854]

Thanks for this. I've really been considering one for use with my Eotech, but the one concern was how close I could fit them together. This really helps.

[@jarrettm3728]

Same got the exps3 with 2 dot reticle n am between this and the aimpoint

Make sure it's the eotech with the buttons on the SIDE. Not the rear.

@@tacticalfun Thanks for letting me know! Knowing this, I'll stick to the Eotech G45.

[@tacticalfun]

The g45 is only assembled in usa and 200 more with less magnification.

[@Porschedoctor1]

The problem is the garbage magnifier mount. I have the same setup and the reticle position with the magnifier is not consistent. Sometimes it’s centered, the next time it’s almost out of view. All of reviews on the Vortex website mention the faulty magnifier mount.

[@notbadsince97]

Unity’s magnifier mount is compatible with these vortex micro 3x and 6x magnifiers

[@dongregory4496]

Just picked one up. Not for long but I've flipped it at least 45 plus times. No centering issues yet.

Looking to get one of these, or the 3X one.

[@KeterMalkuth]

All magnifiers will have some "Zero" shift. It's visually worse for a higher magnification optic, due to the misalignment appearing multiplied by the increased magnification, but every magnifier with every mount will have some shift happening.

[@ArkamasRoss]

I have a Micro 3x and it happens. Not dramatic shift by any means but you’ll see it off center. Not a big deal.

I'm looking at these for my xps3 EOTech... I really wish they had an adjustable magnification magnifier so it's not stuck on any single magnification... I talked with vortex and they said "that's what the lpvo is for..." But it'd b really nice especially on pistols bcuz 1x on a red dot is light-years better than any lpvo so the multi power magnifier would b freakin' sweet
