HOUSTON, TEXAS — Primary Arms Optics has announced the release of the GLx® 1x MicroPrism, a compact and versatile prismatic optic built for optimal close-quarters performance without being affected by astigmatism. Designed as an evolution of the popular SLx® MicroPrism, the GLx 1x MicroPrism offers a range of improvements that make it the ideal solution for shooters seeking precise and fast target acquisition.
Priced at $299.99, the GLx 1x MicroPrism brings several new advancements to the table, including a larger objective lens that provides a wider eye box and improved light transmission. The GLx 1x MicroPrism has nearly unlimited eye relief, allowing users to engage targets effectively from a variety of shooting positions, including non-traditional or awkward angles. This makes it a fantastic alternative to traditional red dot sights, especially for shooters looking for a more rugged and precise solution without the drawbacks of a battery-powered reticle. With 8 mounting options included in the package, users have extensive flexibility to customize the optic’s height and placement on their firearm, ensuring a perfect fit for any setup.
Available in both red and green illumination options, the etched ACSS® Cyclops reticle ensures precise aiming, even for those with astigmatism. Like its predecessor, the GLx 1x MicroPrism has a long battery life, which is further improved by AutoLive® technology. However, this new optic now features low-profile push-button controls, replacing the traditional knob design for a sleeker, less obstructive peripheral view.
“The GLx 1x MicroPrism shows our commitment to innovation and customer feedback. By upgrading the glass, enhancing durability, and providing intuitive controls, we’ve delivered a prism optic that is faster and more precise at any distance,” said Stephen Morgan, Director of Product Marketing at Primary Arms Optics. “For everything from personal defense to competition shooting, the GLx 1x MicroPrism delivers top-tier performance in a compact package.”
