The Primary Arms SLx 1X MicroPrism ACSS Cyclops is a compact true 1x prismatic sight from the highly acclaimed SLx line, renowned for its reliability, innovation, and exceptional value for money. Primary Arms optics underwent rigorous field testing, including firing over 7,000 rounds on a SCAR 17 .308 Win, without sustaining any damage.

The Primary Arms SLx 1x features an upgraded ACSS 5.56 reticle etched on premium low dispersion glass, the AutoLive illumination activation system, and a reinforced mounting base for guaranteed rigidity and reliability on the firearm.

The Primary Arms SLx 1x is a prism sight with a true 1x magnification, perfect for rapid two-eyed shooting at close-range targets. Many shooters encounter difficulties due to astigmatism, a vision condition that causes the aiming point to blur or distort when using collimators and similar devices. This makes aiming, particularly at small and distant targets, challenging. However, this problem can be resolved by replacing collimators with more expensive holographic sights, magnified scopes, or the increasingly popular prismatic sights.

Primary Arms SLx 1X MicroPrism - The Optimal Solution for Astigmatism

Unlike collimators, prism sights offer a BDC reticle, providing a much clearer image with minimal parallax error. They offer enhanced precision for longer-range shooting while enabling binocular aiming and maintaining situational awareness.

The sight's sealed aluminum body adheres to the IP67 protection standard, ensuring resistance to fog, rain, and shocks. With a 10.3 mm exit pupil and a generous eyebox, the Primary Arms SLx 1X prism sight allows for quick target acquisition without the need for perfect optical alignment. Consequently, it provides a wide field of view, making it ideal for dynamic shooting at moving targets, where time constraints may hinder precise aiming. The proprietary ACSS Cyclops Gen II 5.56/.308 reticle is etched on the glass, rendering it visible even without backlighting, regardless of the time of day. The reticle features a scale below the target mark for estimating target distance. It offers red backlighting options (horseshoe and chevron) with 13 daytime brightness levels and 3 night vision settings. The AutoLive motion sensor prolongs battery life, allowing up to 29,000 hours on the medium brightness setting. When the weapon remains inactive for an extended period, AutoLive automatically turns off the crosshair illumination, which promptly resumes upon any movement.

The ACSS Cyclops Gen II is a proprietary Primary Arms reticle calibrated for the ballistics of 5.56/.308/7.62×39/.300 Blackout SUB ammunition. The central portion of the ACSS Cyclops Gen II reticle features a thinner chevron (inverted letter V) surrounded by a thicker horseshoe. A scale for applying bullet drop compensations and estimating target distance is positioned below the chevron. The result is an intuitive reticle that excels in dynamic shooting scenarios at short distances, as well as precise shooting at medium distances. The ACSS system offers a straightforward yet highly functional aiming solution, appreciated by both novice and experienced shooters worldwide.

The Primary Arms SLx 1X MicroPrism includes a robust aluminum mount with key steel components, ensuring a stable and reliable zero hold. The package provides two elevation options, Absolute Cowitness, and Lower 1/3, allowing you to choose the height that suits your preferences.
