Features of the prismatic device Primary Arms SLx 5x Micro Prism ACSS Aurora 5.56/.308 Yard:
Primary Arms SLx 5X MicroPrism is a compact 5× prismatic device from the renowned SLx line, known for its reliability, innovation, and excellent value. Field-tested on the SCAR 17 .308 Win rifle, it endured over 7,000 rounds without damage. The SLx 3x features an improved ACSS Aurora 5.56/.308 reticle etched on premium low-dispersion glass and a reinforced mounting base for stability and durability.
The SLx 5x is a prismatic device with 5× magnification that enables clear long-range target identification and both-eyes-open shooting at close range. Many shooters with astigmatism find red dots blurry or distorted. This can be solved by switching to a prismatic device offering clear, parallax-free images and enhanced precision, while maintaining situational awareness.
The device features a sealed aluminum housing rated IP67, resistant to fog, rain, and shock. Its large exit pupil and wide eyebox allow fast alignment without perfect positioning, making the SLx 5X ideal for dynamic shooting. The ACSS Aurora 5.56/.308 reticle is glass-etched, visible without illumination, and includes a metric scale for distance estimation. The red illumination (horseshoe and chevron) offers 13 daylight and 3 night-vision levels. The AutoLive motion sensor extends battery life up to 29,000 hours, turning off illumination when idle and instantly reactivating it with movement.
ACSS Aurora is an innovative BDC reticle featuring a lit chevron, windage, and distance markings for intuitive, quick corrections. This multifunctional and user-friendly system is appreciated by both novice and experienced shooters worldwide.
The SLx 5X MicroPrism includes a solid aluminum mount with steel-reinforced parts for a secure zero. Optional risers allow eight different mounting height configurations.
