just enough magnification

by

For the AR to reach out it needs just a tad more magnification than a 1x red dot... this works perfectly! Target acquisition is still fast but the clarity at 300 yards is good enough to make a better shot than no magnification. It's light, appears to be tough. The quick target acquisition with out fishing around is spectacular.

So good..

by -

I bought another one. Super light, good 2x mmagnification, forgiving eye relief, light weight. The only con is the relatively high price.

Great product

by -

Clear crisp reticle, have several of the acss reticle's, no regrets with any of them. Always as advertised

First thoughts, final thoughts

by

The retical seems small. Was considering returning back to primary. Having astigmatism due to age, i decided to try it out. Glass is clear and the turrets click positively. Very simple to sight in. Etched retical was fine at 50 and 100 yards. I did not have to use the illuminated retical because it was a clear day. Since you can adjust the eye piece, i dont get the blurry polywog looking thing like i do with my now former aimpoint. It rides in an ADM mount now. I used the thread locker that came with it . Solid and no movement. If nothing else, I now have a red dot that works for me. The more i use it, the more i like it. It's a keeper

Looks feels great

*Disclaimer have only mounted it and have yet to take it to the range* the glass is crisp and clear the reticle at least for my environment is daylight bright and the shake awake works perfect the eye relief seems to be infinite and changing the riser is simple and all tools to mount and change the riser come in the box. all in all looks to be a great optic. Tons of great videos of this optic on YouTube go checkem out

Just received my 2nd GLX 2x. I bought it when it first came out and absolutely loved it. Sadly after being laid off I was strapped for cash and had to sell the build it was on. I knew that soon as I was in a better place, it would be the first thing on my list. I can’t begin to tell you how good of an optic this is. It truly is a do it all optic. I have it mounted on a carry handle using a mount you can also find on this site, and it allows you to still use your irons. For the money, you absolutely cannot beat it. It’s eye relief and FOV blows the 1.5x ACOG out of the water. Light transmission is fantastic. Its perfectly usable at home defense ranges, and despite it being only 2x I can see so much better out of it than with my own eyes at longer ranges. It’s a great close to mid range optic, but you have hold overs that make it more than capable of letting you accurately suppress a target at long range. Buy it. You won’t regret it.

Nearly awesome

by

This thing is a great sight, no question about it. It hits the sweet spot when it comes to “general purpose” AR sights. It is not heavy, doesn’t take up a lot of real estate, and is robust. The eye relief is very forgiving, and the 2x can effectively stretch your shots out to 500 meters. However, it can also be used effectively at close ranges (Binden), it doesn’t mess with my eyes the same way other magnified optics do (not sure why, but it doesn’t).

The only reason this optic isn’t on all my carbines is because it doesn’t have night vision settings. Obviously, not everyone needs this feature, but it’s an easy improvement these days.

The only other thing I would say is that a T1/T2 footprint would be great. While I like the ACOG footprint, the Aimpoint has far more aftermarket options. Having said that, I use the MI mount without issue.

At the end of the day, I’m really nitpicking here. But I think this thing is “on the verge of greatness”

Great service

by -

Fast delivery, love the optic. I have no complaints. They have my trust.

Liked it so much I bought two

by -

Liked it so much I bought two, It’s what I wanted something rugged not too big. A bit pricey but I got what I wanted

Great do all scope

by

Scope feels solid. The etched reticle is very visible on day light that you dont even need the illumination. Able to do quick transitions up close almost as well as a red dot and eye relief is able to let me see through it even in awkward positions. I was also able to effortlessly take it out to 200 hitting steel and 300 wasn't that much harder.
