Great Optic, reticle on the small side
by Mike
Have the cyclops 2 version of this and love it. Bought this to put on my Ruger PCC however the Gemini reticle is smaller than the Cyclops 2. Its small enough to fit inside the cyclops 2 reticle with some room to spare. Returning this and will likely get a a second cyclops 2 version. Still 5 stars as I consider my issue to be one of personal preference. Still a great optic, very good eye relief, clear glass, durable, compact, will work with a dead battery. Crisp reticle even with astigmatism.
finally
by Lone Gunman
I have to thank Eltanya and David, and P/A's CSR team. because FedEx lost my package and after a couple of emails back and forth I had my optic in hand the next day (nice job, thanks) I mounted it to my new Aero precision EPC-9 pistol build. I have really bad astigmatism and this thing is nice and clear to my eyes and I simply Love it! the reticle with one big outer ring and a simple chevron is awesome. and the ranging marks are a bonus but on a 9mm AR pistol probably not needed but better to have and not need than to need and not have as they say. and another bonus, finally something with extended battery life with motion-sensing on and off. also, all the different height options are such a nice feature to have and I went with the highest mount, it just felt perfect to me. I wish I could post a picture but oh well I guess. thanks again P/A for another great product and awesome customer service!
Good optic
by Mathew -
I got this for me and the red version for my dad for Christmas. The controls are very stiff and when I try to change the brightness I end up unscrewing the battery cap. The ocular adjustment is also tight which made getting adjusted hard but I don't think this is a negative since you don't want it to be loose so it will hold once its where you want it. The reticle is on the small side for my eye but I'm going to put more rounds through it.
VERY small reticle
by John -
Initial impressions upon recieving today:
-Build quality seems way ahead of its price point!
-brightness dial is VERY stiff
-highest brightness is great, even against snowy background
-BUT, the reticle is too small. I have 20/20 corrected vision, and can just barely discern between the chevron and the dot below it. I will be taking it out in a few days for real world testing, but this might have to go back. For a 9mm/short distance shooter, I would like a much bigger reticle. I don't need tiny dots for long distance work.
It might be returned depending on real world use. More to come.
9mm sub gun heaven-
by Xero Meters
Because this optic is so new, it was hard to get a good feel for what to expect. It’s the perfect size for sub 9mm. The reticle is sharp as a razor blade and even more impressive when its illuminated. The reports that it is small are correct. The reticle is a miracle in its self. Even though I can’t imagine shooting 200+ yards with 9mm, the tools are there to get it done. Fantastic eye relief and ridiculously clear glass. 9mm Magic.
damn cool
by BrewJ
This optic is solid, especially with all the included mounting options, I have put it on a ruger pc-charger 9mm with the 6.5 inch barrel (takedown model). I zeroed at 25yds, and was ringing steel out to 150 easily. I had never tried shooting 9mm past 75 yds in the past. It was a blast seeing how effective this optic can make a pistol. I found the BDC to be pretty accurate, but it all depends on the particular load you are shooting also. I was running two different loads when testing and found that one of them was off using the BDC. I would recommend this reticle, when they come back in stock grab one regardless if you are ready to install it on your build/assembly. You will use it eventually, and if you wait they will be out of stock when you are ready, so just do it.
Couldn't ask for a better PCC optic.
by DW
This thing pairs wonderfully with the kp-9. My astigmatism sent me in the direction of prism sights. The reticle is completely crystal clear. I loved this one so much I bought the 3x micro-prism with 7.62 reticle. When you consider the price, quality and aesthetics then this is hands down one of the best options out there imo.
What a machine
by Grant -
Just put this 1X Prism Sight on my buddy's 9mm Foxtrot Mike Upper (16" barrel). What a machine. Faster than any dot sight made and plenty of precision to any distance one would likely fire a 9mm carbine.
