Primary Arms Silver Series Compact 1×20 Prism Scope – ACSS-Cyclops

September 25, 2019 By Robert Kay

The Primary Arms 1X Compact Prism Scope is one of the best, inexpensive AK optics on the market. What makes it a great choice is the with ACSS Cyclops reticle, which is designed by PA by Dimitri Mikroulis. It combines the flexibility of an etched reticle with the speed and simplicity of a red dot. Unlike many prism optics, the 1X Compact Prism Scope offers generous 3.7 inches of eye relief. This combined with a large (13mm exit pupil) provides an exceptionally forgiving eye box. This allows the operator a large degree of efficiency in red dot-style shooting. You can keep both eyes open for fast target acquisition in a variety of situations. The 1X Compact Prism Scope’s includes a removable 1913 MIL STD Picatinny rail mount. The scope body is compatible with standard microdot mounts.

After rigorous field testing, this optic has been given a Silver-tier rating by the National Tactical Officers Association. (Comes with free anti reflection device if you purchase through this site).
