Will the primary arms 5X magifier work with this sight?  

Co-witness ok?

Yes it is a great match.

To build on the OP's question...



Will the 5X work with the LaRue mount? On your site the LT mount is mentioned in relation to the 3X only.



Here I've been chasing down used magnifiers and stuff from anti-tank weapons and stumbled across this winner!



Thanks!





ETA:  To further clarify, which LT flip mount?  I see conflicting info between various EOTech models, etc.  Just XPS, 3 or 5x and LT flip.

Our current 3X is a perfect match with the LaRue LT 670EO. The front of the 5X is slightly bigger and can be used in the LT670EO but it requires that you spread the ring and use longer screws. Doing this makes using the built in adjust mets of the mount a PITA.

Final question, then order...





I don't recall seeing two yesterday but regardless, there is a Gen 1 and Gen 2 on your site for the 3x.  They appear similar except for length??



Both will work with the LT described?  Any reason to pick one over the other?

+1, I want to know too. Will the Gen 2 fit in the Larue mount?

The Gen one fits the LaRue LT-670EO. The Gen 2 does not. The longer Gen 2 is a little less sensitive to having the exact eye position than the gen 1.
