What are y’all’s thoughts.

I have several of them, all the way from one of their first red-dots through 3x and 5x prisms and a couple of LPVOs and one 3-9x50 hunting scopes.

They are all solid gear, and work. Plus, Marshal (the owner of PA) is a solid dude and takes care of his customers.

What are you looking at?

Their 3x prisms. One of their SLX line.

I need to shuffle some scopes, and I also want to get a new RMR.

I have 2 of their prism sights.
One thing I found disappointing was the actual size of the reticle. In the pictures it looks fairly large, in reality it is TINY

I have the older, larger 2.5x SLX on my carry handle Bushmaster (this one: https://www.primaryarms.com/primary-arm ... le-pac2-5x) It is nice, I just wish I had waited for the smaller 3x to come out.

Grapeape is right that the reticle is smaller than you would expect from the pictures, but that is a function of making the drops and hold marks fit the round and the magnification.

Story of PA customer support: I have one of their very first red-dots that was on my Marlin Camp Carbine. It has to be at least 10 years old (probably closer to 15), and was one of their cheapest ones at the time, made in China. It took a bump in the safe and broke off the power knob about a year ago. I still had the original order email that came from the owner himself (tells you how long ago I bought it), so I emailed Marshal and asked if they could still get parts for the red-dot, and if I could order them. Marshal emailed me back, asked me to send it in, and took it as a challenge to see if they could fix the old thing.

They did fix it. I offered to pay, and they refused. It still works great. After dealing with much more supposedly “high end” companies that don’t treat customers half as well, I would say that PA has me as a customer for as long as they want to make cool stuff

Oh?

Yeah, that’s customer support I can get behind…

I’m sold

I have one of the compact 1x prism optics that I like a lot for the price. I wouldn't take it to the sand box, but for range theatrics it's great for the money.

So.. I ordered that bad boy on the 4th.. got it on my doorstep last night..
I’m gonna put it on my 300 and see how it goes

The current optic on the 300 is going on the 45-70.
