Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By 9divdoc: Thanks PA got mine...extremely well built. I am having a little trouble trying to get the diopter to turn...any secret to this...heat it up a little? I would not recommend heating up the optic. The diopter is meant to be a little stiff so it doesn't move under recoil. I gave mine a few full rotations and essentially "worked it out". It did get better. |

Does this mean there may be a GLX 3x in the near future? |

Such a nice little optic ruined by such a terrible in-package mount

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Burncycle: Such a nice little optic ruined by such a terrible in-package mount IMO, if this had windage holds like the 3x does (which won't be particularly useful at 1x but under magnification would be much better than a red dot with just a dot or dot and BDC) then it would stand further apart from red dots and be a more intriguing option even for those without astigmatism. Keep innovating! I may snag the next version. What's wrong with the mount?

Apparently (per brass facts review) it's the same mount that fails basic durability tests that the optic itself passes, which means another $100-150 on top of the base cost to get a mount you can be confident in.
If this doesn't matter to you then it doesn't apply to you, rock on. A good mount especially if we're taking the glx line is low hanging fruit. |

Well, if using the largest cantilever possible while surviving hard drops on the optic is a priority you should probably buy a 1 piece mount anyway. For anyone else that just uses the straight mount with this optic it'll be fine. The mount is the way it is to give you the most options, it's not going to be the best possible solution for every scenario. If you wanted a box full of one piece mounts to come with it that's adding significant cost for something most people are going to throw away or leave in the box. |

If you wanted a box full of one piece mounts to come with it that's adding significant cost for something most people are going to throw away or leave in the box. No argument here regarding sticking to the straight mount. Keep in mind though, not everyone does their due diligence and scours the web / youtube reviews to see how their particular mount configuration holds up; they may not realize there have been issues with the included cantilever mount. Therefore, especially when we're talking about the GLX line, if they cannot find a way to solve known issues at a reasonable cost as you assert, then frankly I'd rather they just ship with the straight mount. They can always do what primary arms does, and right there on the product page offer a discounted one piece cantilever mount that can be bundled with the optic under "optional accessories". That way, customers can spend the money if they want to, save the money if they don't, and either way they walk away with something that holds up and doesn't hurt the reputation of the optic (which is great) and company (which is also great) if they make a mistake and use... the wrong item included in their purchase. |

That’s fair and a broken mount, even if “free” doesn’t look great to the customer. |

I have never had a problem with any of my SLx 1x or 3x mounts, and I have multiple. No reason why the GLx mount should be any different. We'll see when I get mine mounted up. I don't abuse my guns/optics/mounts, but they do get used and tossed around quite a bit.

Primary Arms - will yall's 6x magnifier work with the new GLX 1x Microprism, or will it still have the same issues as it does with the SLX one?

I received mine and have it mounted up on an ADM mount. Super happy with it and the killflash I got with it. The only thing I kinda was surprised by was the lack of the bikini cover. Not a deal breaker but I do like having something covering the glass for storage purposes. Other than that I am super happy with the optic and will probably get another one.
