[Optics] Primary Arms GLX 1X Microprism - $263.99 with code PA12

[-]

Brando1stblood@reddit

I just got a new glx 1x and it doesn’t say anywhere where it was made.. when I google search I get three different answers.. china , Japan and the Philippines. Anyone know for sure?

[-]

Soulsweet17@reddit

Is there any videos on these i can’t find anything?

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

https://youtu.be/gahlZQOn6WI?t=2183

This video is flying under the radar, probably because it doesn't have GLX in the title

C_Does says that the glass appears to be the same, controls are different (dial vs button), the window is bigger. He actually says that for the price difference, the SLX is better for some people.

[-]

C_Does@reddit

That more or less sums it up. I left that video as a surprise for anyone really interested in my channel. The full review is in final editing now. Hopefully by the weekend itll be ready.

It doesnt come down to which is better overall. Its which is better suited for you. The GLx is a step in a good direction. Giving us more options for optics is always a good thing. I am very happy that Primary Arms is continuing to develop optics of all kinds the way they are. I cannot wait to see what the next gen stuff is going to be like.

[-]

gcm5039@reddit

Does the GLX shine bright green from the objective side when it’s on like the SLX does?

[-]

Apart_Truck1050@reddit

No

[-]

EnvironmentalClue362@reddit

When I got my SLX (1x Green) I noticed that right away when larping in front of the mirror and was pretty bummed. I like the optic aside from that but for going on a HD rifle it’s not ideal. I guess if a would be intruder / attacker could see it, my rifle is already pointed at them / in their direction. I’m sure you’d have a rough time if the other side had nods on lol.

I’m looking at grabbing a kill flash but I doubt that would really improve that. I was hoping that they’d address that with the GLX. It would be a for sure buy at that point.

[-]

C_Does@reddit

The red one I have does it a bit.

[-]

DiscoWookie2@reddit

Any plans to make a video on the new slx 1-10 acss Nova?

[-]

C_Does@reddit

Nothing in the pipeline yet. Pa has stuff they want to send me. No idea if that will be part of it.

[-]

3Km7yXQySj4btS6BfN@reddit

I watched the video but I'm retarded. Did he mention eye relief and glad distortion at all? It seems like the GLX doesn't improve either

[-]

Inspiredfallacy@reddit

I think that because the SLX eye relief is "functionally" unlimited, meaning that anywhere you reasonably mount it on your rifle will still allow you to clearly look through it, that comparing either eye relief's don't mean much.

[-]

AverageMilitant@reddit

I think its still best to mount it as close as possible to your eye, because it has a zoom effect where it gets worse the farther it is from your eye.

[-]

Old_MI_Runner@reddit

Yes, that was discussed in review at Gun Deals channel.

[-]

Old_MI_Runner@reddit

In Gun Deals review about the same thing was stated about eye relief along with the image is no a true 1x and mounting location will determine how good the image is for each shooter.

[-]

Far-Boysenberry-1600@reddit

Yes .5 moa vs 1moa. Also unlimited eye relief. To me the deciding factor is the 20mm objective lens vs 17mm for the SLX 1X I got a month ago lol

[-]

Old_MI_Runner@reddit

See video from a month ago at Gun Deals channel. See my other posting where I included links.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

He said those are the same as the SLX

[-]

--_--_---_@reddit

wait i thought the whole point of glx over slx was superior glass quality. so its more of a refresh with qol features. lol all the buy first ask later folks here are in for a surprise

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

I think it will still be a quality optic based on the window size increase, but yeah.

Primary Arms has been diluting the GLX brand a bit. Even putting it on cheap red dots. If the glass is really the same as the SLX, that is pretty dishonest considering how they've been marketing it.

[-]

C_Does@reddit

This. The GLx stuff I am seeing now are made in China, as opposed to being originally from the Philippines.

[-]

Hairballs58@reddit

isin't that because the quality is just as good now? So why not go with the same quality at a cheaper cost for the manufacturer?

[-]

C_Does@reddit

Basically. Some of my favorite scopes are made in the Philippines. But also, some of the biggest disappointments have been from there as well.

[-]

sig_pistols@reddit

Actually, the biggest point was the unlimited eye relief. Everything else was really just extra. As someone with astigmatism and relying on prism optics, eye relief has always been an issue. Obviously you can train for it, but unlimited eye relief on a prism optic is a pretty big deal for me. Already have the SLx that I got for $190 from Simmons, so another $70 isn't a big deal for some of the new features, especially the eye relief. So if the eye relief ends up being similar to a red dot that's a win.

[-]

Far-Boysenberry-1600@reddit

I’m on the same boat. Got SLX about a month ago and it’s awesome but wished it was a bit larger. Took a class yesterday and could see how the smaller window slowed me down. I’m sure it can be trained but if I can get a 20mm I’m in. Hope they make an even bigger version at 23 or 25mm. There are some 1X prisms out there in the larger size

[-]

Far-Boysenberry-1600@reddit

G line is supposed to be better. Used to be but not anymore. Chinese glass (S line) has stepped up considerably and the build quality is superior to Philippines. Seems PA is moving the G line to China too.

[-]

Java_The_Script@reddit

Did he not mention the 0.5 moa click adjustment vs the 1.0 moa on the slx? That’s the deciding factor for me personally.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

I don't think so but I'll add that to the list

[-]

JohnnyBoy11@reddit

Nice! He's generally considered a good reviewer and is a redditor too

[-]

Niccom@reddit

This was the same conclusion I came too when the spec sheet dropped. I’m in for one.

[-]

Old_MI_Runner@reddit

Brass Facts review came out 2 hours ago:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rcJMQbEhfo

[-]

Spirited-Database-12@reddit

Check out C_DOES on YouTube. Is 50k subscriber special featured the glx and a comparison to the slx. The takeaway from what I remember was if you like the slx you’ll like the glx, but he’s keeping the slx on his pcc for now. Check out the video and come to your own conclusions. I bought the slx from simmons for $179 and I’m happy with it. Don’t see the need for the glx at this time.

[-]

EnvironmentalClue362@reddit

Yeah I got the SLX 1x as a place holder for when the GLX dropped but I like my SLX. With the GLX being made in China now and just having a slightly larger lens and having buttons instead of dials, I’m not sure if thats enough to upgrade.

I don’t want to have FOMO though but wouldn’t mind getting other people’s feedback as to how big of an improvement the GLX is over the SLX.

[-]

Spirited-Database-12@reddit

I’m sure as more people get their hands on them they’ll be more reviews posted. That said simmons is the goat when it comes to deals on PA optics. If you don’t scoop one up now they’ll be plenty more in the future. If these just hit and they already have a sale on them, just imagine how good the sales will be 6 months from now.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

I think if he had titled that video "GLX versus SLX" it would have gotten more attention, but he did a great breakdown.

[-]

AccountantIndividual@reddit

I love Simmons, and PA PLXc LPVOs are among my favorites, but this doesn't seem like enough of an improvement over the SLX version for me to care. Give me a PLX prism - a poor man's acog/acog mini, and I'm sold

[-]

Jayy_Black33@reddit

They won’t, PA said it would run as much as an acog or close to that price and defeats the purpose

[-]

Nice_Flamingo203@reddit

Yeah, except that the eye relief on an acog sucks! My vortex spitfire 3x gen 2 has pretty decent glass though. I have both the pa slx 3x micro and the spitfire 3x gen 2. I like them both.

[-]

idrankthebleach@reddit

Yeah the 5x already exists too and would do well for some improvements, but I love mine. I could maybe see a glx 5x in the 4-500 range but yeah beyond that you minus whale get a dagum acog.

[-]

PantherCityTactical@reddit

I love my SLX and it’s super crisp. When I got my hands on a GLX and had them side by side it was like a night and day difference. The GLX made the SLX look like cheap glass. I would definitely carry these on our site, but I can’t compete with retailers like Simmons selling them for literally below my cost. So I’ll stick to buying them wholesale for personal use haha.

[-]

Wu_tang_dan@reddit

Can you throw a magnifier on these?

[-]

CannaChemistry@reddit

I can’t get my magnifier to work AND my 1x to be clear on its own. Magnifier only works when 1x is blurry af

[-]

just_randy@reddit

Try moving the 1x a notch or 2 forward so the gap between magnifier is bigger. It worked for me

[-]

CannaChemistry@reddit

What magnifier are you using?

[-]

just_randy@reddit

PA SLX 3x Micro Magnifier

[-]

CannaChemistry@reddit

Not working with my Chinese g45

[-]

PantherCityTactical@reddit

Yep! PA makes one but any should work.

[-]

mehatebananas@reddit

Is the color tint and image shift not as bad in person? C-does on youtube did a sidebyside video and the slx looked crisper, flater and far more neutral in the color department. Was honestly pretty disappointed by what I saw..but I know cameras don't always portray the naked eye experience correctly. The glx looks noticeable red in tone.

[-]

PantherCityTactical@reddit

I mean I don’t remember seeing any difference. But it’s an optic not a camera lens. So to me that’s irrelevant unless it’s outrageously tinted.

[-]

zagabong@reddit

You have to get into a buying group if you want better prices. I learned this the hard way

[-]

AccountantIndividual@reddit

Good to know! If the glass is a step up from the slx, this will be a solid little optic. Guess I'll have to find somewhere where I can look through one before buying.

[-]

IsopodEnough6726@reddit

The .5 moa clicks is enough of a reason for me to upgrade. I have a couple slx micros but the 1 moa click value has always annoyed me.

[-]

PantherCityTactical@reddit

For sure. If you are able to see one in person I guarantee it will change your mind. I’m still happy with the SLX and not in a rush to upgrade, but the GLX is noticeable nicer.

[-]

AccountantIndividual@reddit

Thanks for the info man! Fyi, I bought some emissary handbrakes from you recently. I'll be buying more stuff. You may not be able to compete with bigger retailer prices, but I'll be supporting you when I can

[-]

PantherCityTactical@reddit

Awesome! I really appreciate it!! Yeah, it’s just a game of choosing what I can and can’t realistically sell. But it’s all good!

[-]

idrankthebleach@reddit

At this point we’ve given hunter so much shit I feel obligated to purchase.

[-]

salty-walt@reddit

Sure he appreciated being PA's point man on reddit for these....

[-]

BallsOutKrunked@reddit

Yeah honestly my favorite thing about the glx is hopefully the market will be flooded with cheaper slx units on gafs and then retailers discount too.

[-]

CannaChemistry@reddit

Anyone been able to get this to work with a eotech magnifier? I can only get the diopters to match up when the 1x is blurry on its on.

[-]

EatMorRabit2@reddit

u/Hunter_SimmonsSG received mine today, do these not come with a little rubber cover like the SLX series? Kinda weird if so.

Otherwise it seems great, love the new form factor (hated the stupid giant dial on the SLX) and can't wait for the GLX 3x which is surely coming too, right? 😬

[-]

Hunter_SimmonsSG@reddit

Not sure on the 3x as they have not told us anything yet about it. They should have come with a rubber scope cover and we have found out some did and some didnt ship with them. Shoot Cuz an email at Mike@simmonssg.com and he will get you one.

[-]

EatMorRabit2@reddit

Will do. Appreciate it!

[-]

Bradyrulez@reddit

What exactly does this do better than the old slx 1x?

[-]

Ottoblock@reddit

I’m gonna bet better glass. Other than that 🤷‍♀️

I’m surprised that the glx line is priced this low, I payed $70 less for the Slx, I’d be surprised if they packed more features in for $70

[-]

Mahlegos@reddit

Better glass, better eye relief, finer adjustment (1/2moa vs 1moa) buttons instead of knobs, and “better daylight bright illumination” - according to the website.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

According to C_Does there is not a noticeable difference in the glass

[-]

mehatebananas@reddit

That side by side video actually made the glx look worse than the slx in the glass department

[-]

mcnastytk@reddit

They switch it from Phillipines to China like the slx which sucks because that what I liked about glx line but I hear it's pretty good anyway.

[-]

AUGwaffles556@reddit

The GLX 2X was China too, but both of mine had noticeably better glass than any SLX prism, full size 3X gen 3, 1X micro and 3X micro, I owned all of them at the same time and GLX 2X had better glass clarity. I'm hoping for the same with this 1X.

[-]

MasonBeast22@reddit

Better eye relief
5 moa adjustment vs 1 moa -less bulky on the side due to buttons instead of knob

Feel free to chime in if I’m forgetting anything else.

[-]

AllTheMedicine@reddit

I'm skeptical about the whole "better eye relief" ordeal because the SLX already has all the eye relief you'll ever need. I could literally hold it a full arms length away and still see the reticle. What more is there to improve?

Feels like that part specifically was just some marketing from PA.

[-]

afuckingwheel@reddit

Magnifiers?

[-]

sig_pistols@reddit

PA also says it supposedly works better with NODS

[-]

IsopodEnough6726@reddit

Very little info/reviews but the glass is supposed to be better with even better eye relief, slightly larger window, buttons(only + IMO is less obstruction from the dial).

[-]

Jevvy-@reddit

Guessing this is better than the Romeo 5? Have a naked rifle I’m trying to get full clothed.

[-]

PageVanDamme@reddit

Apples and oranges comparison IMO. If your eye have astigmatism, there no better 1x option.

[-]

Trope360@reddit

If your eye have astigmatism, there no better 1x option.

Have a hard time believing this. I have a bad astigmatism, the SLx is lowest on the totem pole of what I've used. My EOtech is night and day. I'll probably grab a GLX as I'm hoping it's better than the SLx which I'm not a fan of (own 2 off the hype before I used them extensively), but I'm guessing you haven't actually used a GLx either. The small eye box and complicated reticle just really isn't optimal, a 2.5moa dot would be a ton better or only the chevron.

Testing in dark to light condititions and at least hundreds of rounds in competition and training, I'll then make a conclusion on an optic - only way to be is to use it. Personally, I learned to shoot thru my astigmatism as my instructor with worse eyes than mine does, and I'd take a Holosun 512 over an SLx and I bet over a GLx too. Too many people cry about their astigmatism, you're getting old, learn to pick up a rifle and use it with what you've got.

[-]

salty-walt@reddit

Everyones tism is different. Anecdotally, people tend to have better luck with prisms over red dots. I cant see an eotech to save my life. Starburst if im lucky. Obviously different for you.

[-]

nitram4230@reddit

Agree, I have the opposite experience Trope had. EOTech's have the same amount of bloom as a regular red dot to me and will still starburst the same. Have had much better experience with prisms.

[-]

Voltron_BlkLion@reddit

With 3 of my eotechs I have one that blooms into a starburst after every shot. A Romeo 5 I sent back because the dot looked like the Big Dipper 😄. Wondering if I should send that one eotech (3-1) back since my other two (2-0) are fine.

[-]

Trope360@reddit

I'd send it back, I hear their warranty is great and every brand puts out a blem once in a while. They'll cover it.

I do get that EOtech's aren't the solver for everyones tism, I'm also looking at glass clarity, performance, true 1x - there's more than just less starburst on your reticle.

Also love all the downvotes I'm getting yet the reviews are coming out on the GLx and they are not great. I actually had high hopes for it, I just think the SLx is one of the most overhyped optics here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rcJMQbEhfo

[-]

Voltron_BlkLion@reddit

Yea I watched that an hr ago. We shall see. I will send eotech an email about it.

[-]

Trope360@reddit

Keep me posted, always like to hear about warranty experiences!

[-]

Trope360@reddit

I hear that, I see 2 and a half starburst dots, the 2 in a diagonal are strong and then the third is faint top right. Prisms and holographic are definitely "better" for me, but again learn to shoot through it and I compete well with a red dot - well green or gold technically, red is the worst for me personally.

[-]

Limited_opsec@reddit

Name checks out

[-]

Trope360@reddit

Honesty from people that actually run their equipment and don't care about karma count makes this forums buttholes pucker :)

[-]

afuckingwheel@reddit

I sorta agree with you. Reticle crispness isn't everything, and red dots have enough advantages over prisms such that I wouldn't automatically recommend a 1x prism to all my tism bros. Namely price and fisheye/true 1x.

[-]

Trope360@reddit

Absolutely, thank you for some sense in the room.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

Lmao why are you going to buy this if you think it'll be bad? The SLX and GLX will be no different in this case

[-]

Trope360@reddit

I said I have a hard time believe this is the #1 optic for people with astigmatism. And I stand by that, downvote me all day. The SLx is a decent $180 optic, at that price, but it's not top tier glass let's be real. Beats the Romeo5 you find on sale for $100, sure in some regards. Single dot is supreme there is the one caveat.

I'm hoping they release a chevron only in green in the future. I want to like it. This does improve a bit on the SLx, especially the eye relief which is needed.

Why specifically? I have plenty of rifles to throw one on and this is still relatively cheap, as far as optics are concerned to play with so I'd rather buy it and run it and test it before I say it's bad – I'm just also not going to claim it's #1 without running it. I run ~2000rds a month 9/5.56, I hate money ;)

[-]

Junction91NW@reddit

I so desperately want them to make a crosshair version. Chevrons are my least favorite aiming point.

[-]

geopede@reddit

Chevron/donut is usually a thing with prisms because crosshairs don’t work as well with the Bindon Aiming concept. Granted this is a 1x prism so wouldn’t really make a difference here.

[-]

salty-walt@reddit

Line definitely needs to be expanded. Just copy all the acog reticles lol

[-]

Own_Possible_7266@reddit

I have the Slx 3x and I agree completely. I love the optic but just not a fan of the reticle.

[-]

ecfreeman@reddit

Would this be a good optic to get for a 9mm pcc in building? I was already looking at the slx 1x since it had a reticle specific to 9mm. Now not sure which would be better.

[-]

RedditUser923@reddit

That’s what I’m mounting it on

[-]

ecfreeman@reddit

Yep, after reading more about the Cyclops vs Gemini reticles, I opted for the new GLx! Went with the green reticle.

[-]

RedditUser923@reddit

Mounted the Glx with the low offset mount, looks much better than the Gemini (reticle is smaller on the gemini).

[-]

ParsleyOne6430@reddit

Tried applying the code but not recognizing?

[-]

Something that i notice for slx the eye relief is Eye Relief: 3.6” (Usable Range: 2”to 7) vs glx one is 4.4. What's the usable range for the new glx

[-]

JCuc@reddit

Can this optic be used for 9mm? Everything I can locate indicates it for stuff like 5.56, 300blk, 12ga, etc...

[-]

ecfreeman@reddit

That was my initial debate, but after reading reviews on the Cyclops vs Gemini reticles, it made getting the new GLx optic an easy choice. I'm never going to shoot 9mm farther than 50yds anyway, plus this will give me options in the future if I choose to move it over to a different host like for 5.56, 300blk, 12ga, etc like you mentioned

[-]

ca9927@reddit

Considering on 9mm you don’t really need to range your shots because it’s all close range anyways, yes. Just ignore the ranging hashes below. Although if you do want to use them, just go do some tests at your range to determine what bullet drop distances the hashes correspond to on your setup. So still useful. I’m popping mine on an AR9

[-]

Terrible_Detective45@reddit

Seems like the biggest difference between this and the other micro prisms is the eye relief.

[-]

5thPhantom@reddit

From what I’ve read, the glx has better clarity and buttons for illumination instead of a dial.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

Clarity is the same, controls are different, GLX window size is larger.

GLX clarity is noticeably better.

I am holding off for FDE. My slx 1x is still going strong. I had to mount it all the way back right next to the charging handle because of the eye relief though. Hopefully glx fixes this issue.

In for 1! Will probably get a second when the FDE version is released. My stiggy eyes will be happy! Anyone want a Brand new Holosun HS512C? Haha

[-]

StylesBitchley@reddit

Had great experience buying my SLX from Simmons. Any idea if/when we will see a 3x or other magnified version?

[-]

Toatsmkgoats@reddit

Is there a green reticle option coming?

[-]

Hunter_SimmonsSG@reddit

We have both in stock currently.

Happy not to answer all the "WHEN GLX?" questions anymore?

[-]

Hunter_SimmonsSG@reddit

You have no idea. At one point I was getting 30 to 40 emails a day asking.

[-]

WarlockEngineer@reddit

Well I hope you get some rest this weekend after you ship a shitload of these

[-]

Hunter_SimmonsSG@reddit

Bluejay0@reddit

Got an SLX 5X. SHOULD THIS BE MY OFFSET OPTIC???

[-]

M4ndoTrooperEric@reddit

NO. IRONS OR TRADTIONAL RDS. PRISM OPTICS NEED EYE RELIEF EVEN AT 1X

afuckingwheel@reddit

Make this the primary and the 5x the offset

[-]

Bluejay0@reddit

🫡

[-]

Excelius@reddit

Probably not a great choice.

With a prism you do have to account for the eyebox and eye relief, even if it's fairly generous with a 1x. It's going to be more difficult to get you eye in the same place every single time when you're rotating the gun to use an offset.

[-]

Bluejay0@reddit

Oh well. Irons it is!

[-]

Setiuas@reddit

I will say it again, simmons fucks hard. This is basically what i paid for my slx 3x microprism

[-]

DANiMALxMD@reddit

Surprised I got one. Snagged a green for my 300BO HD build

MP5K-PDW@reddit

Voltron_BlkLion@reddit

Ordered one for my new Specwar

[-]

BigCheez01@reddit

Damnit I thought I was done buying things…

[-]

M4ndoTrooperEric@reddit

What's different than than SLx1x prism?

[-]

Aidz24@reddit

Brightness adjustment isn't on a knob like the slx 1x, battery is on top. Better eye relief.

Not sure about anything else.

Kinda bummed because I straight up just installed my slx 1x yesterday 😢 Got it for $150 though brand new so can't complain.

[-]

M4ndoTrooperEric@reddit

Yeah i just bought my SLx1x from simmons a couple months ago. I like it so far. Just zeroed it last week

[-]

Ok_Proposal_2278@reddit

Maximus0228@reddit

Yall scoop a red or green? I got a green SLX so figured try this in red

[-]

relaxingwater@reddit

You know the answer. Get both. Its 530 out the door to cali.

[-]

NotARobotv2@reddit

Wonder how well these work with magnifiers compared to slx.

[-]

NismoGlock@reddit

Snagged one. Been thinking about trying these out. I typically am not a fan of the reticle but willing to give it another try

[-]

duke_flewk@reddit

I have the 3x prism and I like it, I also like Simmons no matter what rumors come up about cuz! I heard he’s vegan and only hunts cabbage in walmart, but you didn’t hear it from me 🤫

[-]

DrKDB@reddit

Copped. Thx OP. Was researching these earlier this AM.

[-]

masteroffeels@reddit

[-]

harpnyarp@reddit

They gonna make a 3x?

[-]

GrouchyTrousers@reddit

Hell yeah got a green one coming my way. Thanks for offering the discount code out of the gate. My astigmatic eyeballs are crossing their metaphorical fingers that this is all its being cracked up to be!

[-]

accountithrewaway@reddit

Awesome deal. Is there a 3x coming soon/next year? I’m waffling between buying now and waiting to see if theres a 3x around the corner and choosing between those

[-]

catnamed-dog@reddit
