View Quote That giant ring is a really neat idea. Any plans for a reticle with that giant ring, but a center dot instead of chevron? |

Id like to see something like a 2-7x32 with the acss kiss reticle. Ive got 3-4 different rifles that an optic like that would be perfect for.

I want to see some pistol red dots

Premium LR optic with 35x on the big end.
|
|
|
I'd just be happy with off settings inbetween the illumination settings on the current prisms.

Keep them coming. We meet every two weeks to continuously plan what comes next. Keep in mind that changes and new models take time but the feedback is very valuablle

I have several scopes Id like to see:
1 - A 1-6x premium scope with a MIL Christmas tree grid a bit shorter than the 1-8x premium. Bomb proof/war optic... or as close as you can get. 2 - ACSS ACOG or VCOG. I’m sure you get this all the time and is probably beyond your control which leads me to number 3 3 - 4x premium optic with the RAPTOR reticle from the 1-6x SLx SFP. Keep up the good work PA. I have 2 of your GEN 3 3x’s and 2 1-6x FFP SLx’s and absolutely love them. |

How about a GLx - 3x with the ACSS Aurora reticle? Keep it under 15 oz with a good FOV and ER = $$$
And please update the Cyclopes mount to the GLx style without the giant nut on the side so I can buy one. That's all I got |

No one is coming to help... ~ except Kyle

I’d like to see the GLx 2.5-10x44 with an MOA version of the ACSS Raptor reticle.

Good stuff! Keep em coming!!

2x GLX with Green reticle... It's nice to have choices!

Definitely keep going in that direction; I hate having knobs sticking off the top rail, especially on the left side of the receiver where most companies seem to put them. |

I'd like to see MADE IN USA.
I understand that this would increase costs but I think there is a market for MADE IN USA if you can get pricing to come in a noticeable amount under Aimpoint/EOTech. |

Something not made in china

4x prism w/ ACSS

I’d like to see a compact model in the platinum line. 2.5-20x50 would be awesome, locking turrets, Athena reticle, ffp illumination, sub 1,500$

View Quote Agreed on the 3x or 4x GLX, also with a built in RMR mount. 1.93” for the new mounts for the micro series. |

I definitely would love to see another 1-10x LPVO in the market. I have an Atibal X but would prefer a reticle with features of the Athena reticle for mil-reticle and something similar to the 308 HUD or Apollo reticles for a BDC reticle.
I was just reading a new Primary Arms article of holographic scopes...is this a hint for 2021 Shot Show?? PA Holo-sight! |

True 1x4 or 1x6 or even 1x10 with 50k battery life. 30k would be ok too...

To me it makes no sense on optics with 20k+ hour battery life; you can already leave it on for over a year, it's just another complication that adds cost and a failure point, and I'm going to change all of the batteries every year anyway. But in something with a 300hr battery life? yeah, I can see a shake awake feature being nice. |

With battery life continually increasing due to better LED technology, you should replace at least one time per year. If you go to the range often you may have to replace more often. The run time is usually based on a middle setting. I've heard of people cranking their red dots up at the range and go back out a couple of weeks later and they are dead.

It was still red 2 weeks later. Worst part was I knew I was going to do it and didnt stop myself. |

Still waiting on that cyclops(hopefully green) with a plain chevron or KISS reticle

Not sure if it is just variation between units or if the minimum brightness was intentionally reduced. Anyways, if PA were to make the following upgrades, it would just be wonderful 1. Drop the minimum brightness level to below what the naked eye can see. 2. Change the lens coatings to allow greater transmission of near-IR wavelengths. 3. Have a third setting where ONLY the chevron is on (better battery life and zero clutter) Those three things would greatly improve the product, especially for the growing number of us using MRDs for passive aiming under NVDs. In a perfect world, the following would absolutely knock it out of the park. 4. Integrate ranging stadia into the left and right side of the 65 MOA semi-circle like you do in some of your reticles (not sure if that is even possible w/ this type of optic) 5. Add protected windage/elevation turrets like in the HS503GU which is also a great optic. Please don't take this as me griping about the HS503G, I wouldn't have purchased numbers 2, 3, and 4 if I didn't like number 1 It's already a home run, why not turn it into a grand slam? View Quote I am shamelessly rehashing my post from February, PLEASE at least make the HS503G more NV friendly |

GLX 3x made in somewhere else besides China W/ RMR footprint mount at 12 o'clock(Not a full pic rail, keep it light)
Led TA33 basically. |

Especially tied with their new 308 and Creedmore BDC reticles. I would sell the Atibal as soon as PA announces something like that just to have a great BDC reticle. |

Fiber optic illumination on prisms and conventional scopes.
Also fixed power scope in somewhere between 6x and 10x. With the prevalence of running red dots with scopes (almost always on max power) I think it only makes sense to have a smaller, lighter, and stronger magnified optic. Bonus with the ACSS reticle. |

Nvm.

I’d like to see a redesign of the prism 3x to have as good of a FOV and shave down weight/size to be close to the glx 2x, with a green reticle since red is not even remotely bright enough.
Also, I have a sort of reticle design/add in idea for your LPVO’s and prisms. The biggest problem people seem to have is the ACSS donut not leading your eye in fast enough on transitions, whereas the NF atacr 1-8 absolutely kills it in the LPVO game. The reason is the T posts around the center. While I’m sure you guys arent trying to be like everyone else, have you considered adding guide posts to the reticle design? I was thinking hard about it, and it doesnt even have to be a T design. It could be a sort of highway lane guide looking setup. Two lines that get narrower towards the ACSS horse shoe, coming off the sides of the base of the glass, pointing up. Like an equilateral or isosceles triangle, without the bottom base of the triangle, with the tips narrowing out to non-existence before getting to the horse shoe. They wouldnt be too intrusive, and would give a visual guide whether illuminated or not, as to where your horse shoe is hiding while on low power. Food for thought. |

How about a 1-6x ACSS Scout Scope (extended eye relief)?
I've got both a SA M1A Scout Squad and a Ruger Scout Rifle I'd like to put that on. |
|
|
|

How about a Cyclops prismatic with a sufficiently low mount so that it can sit approximately as low as the microdot?
I love the ACSS, I love the prismatic, and I would own several more of them atop various non-AR pattern rifles. ETA: it's entirely possible my only experience is with a older generation optic that may have changed. ETA2: yup, seems I'm an idiot and this exists already. Thanks, PA! Now to figure out if the eyebox on the prismatic would work on my rifle; a 4" eyebox where I would need 7" of relief doesn't seem hopeful. |

Spotting scope with ACSS reticle.

|
Truth, the sum of existence
|

Since nobody else can seem to do it, why don't y'all design a M1A/M14 red dot / prism mount that sits low enough to get a decent cheek weld without having to use a stock saddle.

1) Micro-sized ACSS Vulcan Red Dot with giant ring, for P365XL's and other narrow pistols.
2) An updated ACSS HS503G with solar backup. |
