now primary arms flops their nuts on the table with a frickin 8 ounce 5x optic with the best reticles in the game.
is this not the best single optic solution?

          A poor shooter buys Primary Arms.

          Having a smaller housing like this with a 5x magnification means the FOV is going to be tiny. That's literally how optics fundamentally work.

          Yes these anons are right. Which is why I,

          I don't love the vortex reticle either it's way smaller on the 3x than the 5x. It's not too small on the 5x. In fact, it's fine. The reason I don't like it is that it's calibrated for 5.56 and I have it on a .300blk, bummer.
          What the Vortex has that the primary arms doesn't is the ability to mount it low for a cheek weld with a red dot on top that's still at a reasonable height. That way your rifle is usable for home defense which is honestly the most likely scenario any of us will use our rifles. What would be your answer for closer distance uses if you get the primary arms 5x?

          , believe a 5x prism with a red dot is a fantastic choice. I'll ask again, without the little red dot, how would you use your rifle at close distances? Tilted irons? A canted dot? Those are inferior choices IMO.

            By picking an optic with magnification that isn't completely overkill for any situations I might actually face, and doesn't necessitate the purchase of a second optic to cover the much more likely situations that it would be unsuitable for

                Probably because that point isn't first and foremost like you say it is. If it was, then you'd be buying a traditional scope with adjustable parallax and magnification for a similar price rather than jerking off about what you think the newest meta prism scope for your SHTF action hero fantasies is.

                If that were true, I'd have left the eotech and magnifier on it. LPVO may be superior. I'm not sure but I'm liking the 5x with mounted dot. It seems like the best of all worlds. Accurate cheek weld magnified shots for tight groups and a red dot for self defense.

            Just got back from the range myself. I was shooting my TA31 RCO with no RMR mounted on a block 2 upper. It is very easy to shoot a prism at close range using the Bindon Aiming Concept(only Chads can do it though).

            Seriously though, it's quite easy to shoot fast and close with a quality prism scope if you don't fricking suck. I even had my fiber optic taped about 90% off so the chevron was just a dark red triangle instead of a red dot bright triangle. It just takes a bit of practice is all but if you do practice it then it is very easy.

          The PA 3x microprism has better FOV than every acog except for the TA44 (1x) and the PA 1x microprism has almost double the FOV of the TA44. When comparing the 3x acogs the PA btfos them, 38ft for the PA vs 25ft TA50 and 19ft TA33.

                Because 4x is fricking stupid you dumb Black person. Its too much of a middling shitty magnification. Everyone in arg and irl prefers the 3x acog, even the dipshit youtubers prefer everything about the 3x acog. 4 x is stupid the proper most usable and thus sellable profitable magnification jumps are 1x, 3x, 5x. You fricking middling moron. Cope and move more goalposts.

                No they don't. TA31 is GOAT. 4x is the original ACOG for a reason, and the best. They got it right the first time.
                >thus sellable profitable magnification jumps are 1x, 3x, 5x
                That's literally just because every prism manufacturer knows they can't compete with the TA31, so they don't even try.

                How many more broken nightforces have you seen compared to broken acogs?

                Not exactly a fair comparison, despite me owning and liking both. ACOGs are a general issue item with vastly more in use, while Nightforce has been largely limited to small SOF unit purchases and small sniper/marksman optic purchases.

                The reasonable take is frankly that if you break either some vastly out of the ordinary shit is going on.

            The PA 3x has better fov than the TA33 because it has less eye relief

        What an absolutely moronic post.
        >p-prisms have good FOV!
        No, the TA31 and Elcan 1-4x have good FOV. It is not an inherent quality of prisms at all.
        >trijicon or elcan have stacked more bodies alone than all other manufacturers combined.
        Excellent observation you stupid frick. This is neither a Trijicon nor an Elcan.
        >a poor craftsman blames his tools
        A poor shooter buys Primary Arms.

        Having a smaller housing like this with a 5x magnification means the FOV is going to be tiny. That's literally how optics fundamentally work.

              i would be incredibly surprised if the performance deviated in any meaningful way. it is obviously PA's response to the vortex 5x.
              not that unreasonable to extrapolate performance from an existing optic that is functionally identical.

                the difference is the spitfire has much coarser adjustment and vortex's rationale is 'its not a military optic'

                and? the 3x PA prism has 1/4 moa adjustments. what has that got to do with anything? the rationale is it's not a precision optic. which i don't agree with but in any case, click value is totally arbitrary.

    I don't love the vortex reticle either it's way smaller on the 3x than the 5x. It's not too small on the 5x. In fact, it's fine. The reason I don't like it is that it's calibrated for 5.56 and I have it on a .300blk, bummer.
    What the Vortex has that the primary arms doesn't is the ability to mount it low for a cheek weld with a red dot on top that's still at a reasonable height. That way your rifle is usable for home defense which is honestly the most likely scenario any of us will use our rifles. What would be your answer for closer distance uses if you get the primary arms 5x?

      Literally why. Pretty much every available ACOG reticle is superior and it has ranging built in to the reticle itself, so you don't have to aim over to the side to range then move over to take the shot.

      There's no point in making an ACOG with a PSO reticle, because the PSO scope still relies on using the turrets to make adjustments rather than having holdover points on the reticle. The holdovers the PSO scope gives are for shooting at particularly long ranges after you're at the end of the elevation adjustment.
