Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BTGRUNT: hey there would you recommend or recommend against using the cantilever/extended mounts that came with the cyclops gen 2 to use on the glx 2x? I've tried and they line up great for the eye relief I need on my ak. Just worried that the glx 2x may be too heavy for that mount extender and risk it snapping if dropped or impacted That setup is totally fine and sounds like a great setup for the AK Platform. |

I agree, they seem more robust than the Butler Creek ones. Good recommendation! |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 300Blackout_Drunk: Are there any plans for a 4x in this form factor maybe? I know about the 3x micro, but I'd love something with nicer glass and a bit more durability like the gold line. It just seems like there would be a huge market for what would essentially be an acog killer. You could even have a package with a 1x optic mounted to it and sell them two sights at once. Pretty please, with sugar on top? Not at this time but will bring that suggestion up! |

Can anybody tell me what height the Midwest Ind QD mount puts the 2X at? Trying to get as close to 1.5 as possible, for...thermal...reasons.

It's about 1/16th lower than 1.5. The picture below is balancing the ruler flat against the face of the optic on top of one of the lugs. I also measured from the side spanning 2 lugs for straightness and got the same result (no pic because balancing act with phone would not allow).

Just found this thread.
I really love this optic because as a 54 year old dude I need an adjustable objective or a 1 x red dot/holosight. Trijicon looses. I have one of these on my trunk gun and one on this 723ish build. Perfect optic for an all-arounder IMO.  I do dislike the branding on the PA scopes. But I dislike almost all branding. Heck, I drive a black Toyota Avalon, so I really dislike flash or obvious branding. I love your brand, I hate your logos.

To anyone using this with an ADM B5 mount, what screws did you use to mount the optic to the base? I don't plan on using any of the risers and mine came with additional mount screws of different size. Just curious in case i need to pick some up.

I want mine to work but am finding that I shoot better groups with open sights than my 2x. Not sure if it is a parallax thing or what. Used the taller mount on my duty rifle and can see the shadowy front sight base offest from the reticle. Have to add alot of windage to get it center and then the scope shadows on the right side. Not sure if the optic is messed up or the mount. Past my 90 day window for returns and it was bought as a blem from the get go. Not sure what to try.

With seeing the shadow it sounds like you are not lined up behind it. Have you tried moving side to side and up and down slightly to see if you are in the eye box? If so and you think there might be something wrong then please contact our customer service at [email protected] and we will get you taken care of. They do have a lifetime warranty! |

What made you go with the 2x GLX vs the 2X SLX? What do you find is "better" on the 2x?

I’m loving mine. 2x with clear glass makes it easy to use. It seems like a perfect match for the AUG. It fits right in between the 1.5x and 3X AUG sights with the robustness, but advantage of illumination and BDC.

I think they could fit the 3x reticle in the 2x as there is only 4 ft of difference in field of view between the two of them. I didn't feel like the 3x offered that much more magnification over the 2x and the 2x offers way more than the 1x. |

This scope in 7.62x39mm is ideal on my AK. Fast to pick up for the near range, but accurate and useful for holdoffs on the long range out to the limits of the cartridge.

I don't plan on using any of the risers and mine came with additional mount screws of different size. Just curious in case i need to pick some up. Hi I recently acquired a ADM B5 mount, it is machined to be hollow on the inside. The height of the mount is very comparable to a B2 with the tall riser that comes with the GLx2x. I have not mounted B5 yet, since I am using ADM B2 with the tall riser that comes with the optic. If you bought the GLx 2x brand new it should come with 5 sets of screws. I think you would you the shortest or 2nd shortest screws. If you need pics let me know I will try to post them later this week. |
