After rigorous field testing, this optic has been given a Silver-tier rating by the National Tactical Officers Association.

The SLx optics are the heart of our lineup. The trusted optics that have built our reputation through the years. Although many SLx optics will be familiar to Primary Arms fans, we are always pushing forward with new generations and adding even more options in response to the demands of our loyal customers.

Here at Primary Arms, we believe in providing you with high quality, affordable optics and red dot sights that will get the job done when you need them most. The MD-ADS has been our bestselling microdot for the past two years and it features an estimated 50,000 hours of battery life from a single CR2032 battery at medium illumination setting. With 12 total illumination settings, you can quickly adjust the red dot with the top mounted push-buttons to the appropriate brightness depending on the time of day. This red dot sight is even compatible with night vision equipment to further extend its range of uses. The 2 MOA red dot is extremely crisp and allows you to take quickly aimed shots at short range while still giving you the ability to make effective shots at medium ranges. The glass that the red dot is projected on is fully multi-coated to reduce reflection and provide a clear sight picture. The glass and electronic internals are covered by a durable, black hardcoat anodized, 6061 aluminum housing with O-rings providing protection from water and fog. Because we are so confident in this micro dot, we decided to offer it with a lifetime warranty. If you are serious about home defense or target shooting, this red dot sight will definitely get the job done.

Features:
  • Silver-rated by the NTOA!
  • Approx. 50,000 hour battery life (5+years) at medium setting
  • Uses one CR2032 battery (included)
  • Lowest profile emitter on the market
  • Includes removable picatinny rail mount.
  • Compatible with standard micro mounts and gives stated co-witness
  • Crisp 2 MOA red dot
  • Fully multi-coated anti-reflective lenses
  • 12 Illumination settings for bright days and night vision compatible
  • Absence of parallax shift past 33 yards
  • Waterproof to 6ft. with turret caps on
  • Water resistant with turret caps off
  • Fog resistant
  • Bikini lens cover included
  • Lifetime warranty

One of the main complaints about buying micro dots is not all come with mounts and you must spend even more money just to mount it to your rifle. We have noticed this trend and decided to include a MIL-STD-1913 picatinny rail mount so you can immediately attach it to your AR15, AK47, or another weapon system as soon as you open the box. The mount is even removable so you can attach it to any standard micro mount if you want to co-witness with your iron sights. Adjusting the zero of the dot is made easy with the ½ MOA audible click adjustments that are protected by aluminum caps. Also included with this optic is a bikini lens cover to protect the glass when not in use.

Built on the foundation that customer service is the most important product/service a company can offer, Primary Arms is dedicated to meeting the need of every customer with the utmost respect. Not only do we provide excellent customer service, we offer fast shipping and competitive prices on everything we sell. If our foundation is customer service, then our structure is the increasing line of high quality, dependable optics designed right here in Texas. Our goal; to provide firearms enthusiasts, professional shooters, and servicemen and women the right tools for the job at an affordable price.

This is Good product to buy

As advertised

by -

Arrived super fast and just as advertised. Can't wait to take it out to the range this afternoon. Ordered this item Friday morning and chose the free shipping option. It was sitting on my porch when I woke up Monday morning. I'll definitely be back soon.

Good Product

This one is super clear and sharp with a nice crisp 2moa dot that's better than any other product. Don't hesitate to try this one out

WOW

by -

Wow. I am impressed with this one. Received item this morning, mounted on my Saint 5.56 AR, and went out to do some shooting.

One click zero and I was in at 100 yds. 200 rounds down the pipe, and still spot on.

Thank you Primary Arms.

Very Happy so Far

by

Two clicks right, two clicks down. My SKS was 1/2 moa at 50 yards with a horrible Norinco trigger. I am running the Scout Mount in the rear sight mount. Because it is winter the mid-day sun was behind me instead of over me. I freaked out when I tuned on the sight because the sun was coming into the objective and creating red spider webs. It took me a minute of oh no to shade the lens and viola. So just be aware that low angle sun will refract in the lens. Excellent sight guys, so far.

Solid good quality works well.

by -

Words well, 1-2 inch groups at 25 yards sitting or standing. Glass is good clarity, dot is good clarity. After 200 rounds of 5.56 no change in zero.

Makes paper target head shots at 25 yards too easy. Makes accurately shooting significantly easier then with just iron sites. I would rebuy and I would recommend. Seems like a solid good quality optic.

Great 308 red dot

Excellent optic. Crisp dot. Holds zero no problems on my PTR91SC.

Great red-dot, and great people providing it

Is there a better company to do business with? Man if there is I have yet to find it.
I have purchased many items from PA since near the companies inception, I have vary rarely needed customer support, but the very few times I have needed it, they have handled the issue like no other.
Take this red dot, I purchased one in 2017, loved it from day one. Battery life as advertised, held zero, clear glass, etc. Never had an issue until a few weeks ago.
I contacted PA customer support, and man they were on top of it, they issued me an RMA, I sent it back expecting it to be repaired.
But instead, these fine people sent me a brand new one!
You really cannot go wrong with this red-dot, and I really don't think you can find a better company to do business with than PA.

Good RDS, good value

Mounted this on my Beretta CX4 9mm carbine using the PA 1.65 inch riser. Windage and elevation adjustment controls made precise zeroing easy. 2 MOA dot is clear and crisp in the optic, brightness simple to adjust (I wear glasses, so I use a lower brightness setting to prevent the dot from "blooming" in the optic). 1.65 inch riser allows 100 percent cowitness through the riser with no need to remove or adjust anything. Also allows more natural eye positioning and thus very quick target acquisition. All in all, so far I'm very satisfied with this combination.

Hard to beat, at any price.

I am retired military and have had the opportunity to use many optics over the years. The PA red dot is right on par with our AimPoints IMO. It has a sharp 2 moa dot and holds zero without fail (in my experience) I own 3 PA red dots, and a few more scopes. They are great with customer service, you get more for your money here than anywhere. If you’re on the fence, go for it, you won’t regret it. Aimpoint t-1 protective cover works great. I’ve had this one for about 3 years I think and I have zero complaints!
