Lots of Primary Arms blems available for $50-100 off, good time to try out one of the ACSS if you've been wanting to. I love both my 4x prism (discontinued) and 1-6x 7.62x39.

how does PA compare to the rest of the field? are they inexpensive for a reason, or does that guy just make quality stuff at a bargain? i've never used one.

You have to define the rest of the field.

The 1-6 is on par (same damn thing) as the Vortex Strike Eagle but has a better reticle. I have an ACOG and a PA prism. The ACOG is obviously better but its way closer than you would think.

They're cheap because PA is working directly with the factories and selling them without another step in between.

Those are good prices. Which one of these would you recommend for an 5.56 AR pistol?

I'd go with the 2.5x for a pistol. Not really sure how well the BDC lines up out of a pistol though.

No!!! The prism is OOS. Oh well, all the better for my wallet I guess.

I got mine today already with the free shipping option. Can't even tell it's "blemished". Looks brand new

Dang, I wish I saw this yesterday. Been looking for a good 1-4, or 1-6

My package was delivered yesterday. I ordered a weapons light from them that was on sale too. I'm liking the scope and the light a lot. Thanks for the heads up!

I got my 1-8x in yesterday. The box had a sticker that said "Blem Reticle" so I actually started to worry a bit. Took it out and started looking through it and couldn't find the issue with the reticle.

Finally turned on the illuminated reticle and found the issue. The ring of the ACSS reticle has a few small black spots instead of being a nice red line when illuminated. The chevron is perfectly illuminated.
Hardly a real issue, but not as perfect as the illuminated reticle on my 1-4x. For me, definitely worth saving a $100.

I almost bought the 1-8 to replace their 4x on my carbine but couldn't find any 4x for sale used to see what I was expecting to be out of pocket after selling it

Fingers crossed the 1-8 stays in stock until this afternoon.

Think it'll throw it on the M1A

Is it good quality? Similar to vortex?

I'm looking to upgrade a Nikon AR scope and it's primay use will be hunting. These have always interested me but I don't know a lot about primary arms optics.

PA and the ACSS is a top tier recticle in mid tier glass for a fair price imo

I haven't used any of the BDC for a .308 but both my 5.56 and 7.62x39 options are dead on.

Glass is probably most similar to the vortex Viper/PST stuff. They do have a platinum line that's supposed to be significant better but is also closer to 1k

Here's a thread with people comparing it to a Viper PST which is $700. It's either a push or the pst is slightly better in their opinion.

Also I'm pretty sure their eye pupil numbers are a little off.

Pretty sure EyeGuy has been pretty consistent in saying 4mm exit pupil is the max you actually take advantage of not 6mm
