This Primary Arms prism scope is part of the SLx optics line. SLx optics have built a reputation for innovation, reliability, and value. All SLx optics undergo rigorous field-testing during development to best serve you in any environment.

The Primary Arms 5X Compact Prism Scope Gen III with improved ACSS 5.56 reticle is the most powerful prism scope design. The 5X magnification and bright illuminated horseshoe and chevron reticle allow for surprisingly fast, both-eyes-open shooting at close range, while the ACSS reticle allows for consistent hits on targets out to an impressive 800 yards. The Gen III scope has been equipped with the next generation ruggedized mounts to provide flexible mounting options with incredible clamping power.

Features:
  • New Ruggedized Mount provides exceptional clamping power
  • Includes AR-height riser
  • ACSS 5.56 reticle has BDC and ranging out to 800 yards with 5.56 NATO, .223 Remington, 5.45x39mm, and .308 Winchester
  • Partially illuminated reticle is visible even in bright daylight with red or green illumination
  • Red or green illumination available on the same optic for greater flexibility
  • Removable M1913 picatinny top rail for accessories or piggy-backed red dot sights
  • Generous 10.3mm exit pupil allows for a bright and forgiving eye box
  • 18.8ft field of view at 100 yards provides easier tracking of mobile targets
  • 2.7" - 3.0" of eye relief
  • 1/4 MOA turret clicks are tactile and audible for easy zeroing
  • Tough prism scope is waterproof, fog resistant, and shockproof
  • Durable hardcoat anodized black finish
  • Compatible with standard carry handle mounts
  • Protected by a lifetime warranty


The heart of the tough Gen II 5X Prism Scope is the ACSS 5.56 reticle that combines ranging, wind leads, moving target leads, and ballistic drop compensation out to 800 yards. To the right of the BDC ladder is the integrated ranging system. Place the bottom of the target on the bottom rung, and range up. If you know your targets are roughly 18 inches wide, they can be ranged on the side Auto Range system, or directly on the BDC hold overs! Two dots on either side of the horseshoe offer a moving target lead moving with an average speed of 8.6 MPH. Each step of the BDC system includes a 5 MPH wind hold, drastically improving first hit probability at any range. A center chevron allows for an infinitely precise aiming point that won't occlude the target. As an added bonus, the glass etched reticle does not require batteries or illumination, but 10 brightness settings (5 red and 5 green) allow for fast acquisition in close quarters, or enhanced visibility in fading light, powered by a common CR2032 battery!

The SLx 5X Gen III has even greater strength and flexibility than ever before with the next generation ruggedized mounting system. We’ve upgraded everything about the mount from materials and finish to the design to create a mount that will not just clamp securely to your rail, but stand up the rigors of real-world use. Integrated recoil lugs help lock your mount in place against the heaviest recoil while large diameter crossbolts give you significantly improved clamping power and will hold up to significant torque. The included riser is the perfect height for AR-15s and AR-10s, but can be easily removed for carry handle or AK use as well.

I bought both of these scopes

by -

I was impressed with them, but as A Police Officer in North Florida I would not need to shoot beyond 100-150 yards and the scopes were an over kill for me. After sending them back, I ordered 2 Holosun 503g’s acss which will be a better setup for my needs. I also ordered a Primary 3X LER IV magnifier and a flip to side mag mount.
I am looking forward to receiving the new sighting equipment!
Thank you, your service is exceptional!!!

Thanks PA

I just received it on 3/17th yesterday!! Great St. Patrick’s Day gift to myself. I love it

Fantastic Scope

by

I love this scope. Both red and green reticles are super easy to see , even in bright sunlight. Very easy to zero and holds zero well, I've never had to re-zero (2k+ rounds fired). I've only used out to 300 yards but it is most accurate scope I've ever owned. Great product, great company, quick shipping.

Excellent for tired old eyes

I now have 2 of these for my 762x39 and AR . Having multiple corneas transplants I am no longer blind , so the magnification really helps along w large viewing-awesome scope for the money

Great product

by -

This is the second one I bought, the only thing is that when it arrived (earlier than projected) the battery was dead. Guess it was left on at the factory

Crazy good

by -

I compared this to my friends brand new Acog and you couldn’t tell the difference in clarity, I have zero complaints.

Prism scopes are awesome.

by

I own the 3x Vortex prism scope and absolutely love everything about these scopes. I'll never buy anything else now. Astigmatism problems are a thing of the past with these scopes.

I'll be putting my 3x scope on the wife's 5.56 zombie killer and purchasing this 5x scope for the CMMG 7.62x39... can't wait...

Greatness Right out of the box

by -

Quick and easy installation. All tools included to install. Right on the money lining up the scope with the my AR.

Great Product

by -

The primary arms SLX 5x36MM is a great product of the box. My optic was right on target right out the box. No Adjustments needed for the optic.

Stand-by

by -

Due to UPS losing my package and awaiting for UPS. Communication has been excellent though through this unfortunate process.
