How good can a tiny, lightweight 5x Microprism really be? As it turns out it can be pretty decent. Its amazing how good this thing performs given its genuine small size and near weightlessness. I wish it came with a mount setup for a offset reddot out of the box however for the $400 some people are going to spend on this thing. If you can hold out however, I reckon these will settle down in the mid $300's in a few months. Which certainly makes them much more desirable.

@joearledge
@joearledge Месяц назад
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.

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.

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
@KeterMalkuth 11 месяцев назад
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.

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.

$360 at Primary Arms if you are able to take advantage of their military/first responder discounts. If not, then pick up the optic when PA holds one of their SAVE12 or SAVE13 sales. The ~$350 sale price makes the optic much more competitive to the Vortex Spitfire 5x. Thanks for the video.

as someone who owns both the 1x and 3x PA mp's, Im not going to be getting the 5x. not that i dont think ti will be worth the money, but i just dont think its what i need/ want. the 3x is plenty of magnification for what this is a small compact set up. if i need 5x.. im probably better off with a 1-6 or 1-8 or even 2-10. also consider the platform. if you want long range accuracy, you probably already have a heavier build, so just get a heavier scope... said another way, i feel like the micro prisms excel on a compact/ lightweight build, which by default isnt a long range set up that benefits from more magnification. as always, stellar review.

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.

This is a good optic. Try it with PA's new offset Red Dot 45 degree attachment. Personally I hate the piggyback red dot. The 45 degree is the way to go.....in my opinon.

@FMDad-dm5qo
@FMDad-dm5qo 9 месяцев назад
Agree, but ideally with better illumination. Make that little chevron pop like the reticle on the PA GLX 2x - that thing gets impressively bright.

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.

I don't like the flat edge on the left side of the lens of these PA slx at 3x and 5x. A little off axis and you get blue discoloration and fade to black.

The price on the 5x Spitfire is extremely compelling, but I have no use for an integrated Docter footprint, and I really don't like the reticle. The Griffin reticle 5x micro is extremely tempting though.

@travisolexa3074 11 месяцев назад
I think you mixed up the TA31 and TA33, because the 33 isn't the one service members will swear by. Far as I'm concerned with ACOG the TA31 is the only one truly worth its cost.

You can’t shoot for the king and not give a real ACOG a chance. The TA33 is not THE ACOG. The TA31, or even better, the LED version the TA02 is the true prism benchmark.
@bladeflyer6
@bladeflyer6 11 месяцев назад
I agree. Using the Ta33 as the basis for the ACOG doesn’t work. Gotta use a 4x32 or at least the 3.5x version for that.

When I saw the Spitfire featured here hit $200, I jumped on that so quickly. The SLx 5x was in my shopping cart at the time, but the sale price and my experience with my other Vortex optics made me swap over to the Spitfire. Also: the glass is more, I dunno... "natural(?)" on the competitors than the SLx. The SLx does some weird yet subtle color shifting.
@CDOES
@CDOES 8 месяцев назад
The spitfire for $200 was insanely cheap. Definitely a wise move. The slx has good glass, but a color shift is noticable. Yet not that bad considering the rest of it's performance
