Nice optic but not a replacement for your rds - Primary Arms GLx MicroPrism 1x Prismatic Red Dot Sight

If you’re ordering this optic, you probably have experience with RDS’s and you’re wondering if this is a good fix for your astigmatism. For me, it was not. Idk if it’s my eyes or just the nature of the optic, but in certain lighting situations, I get a bit of light “leakage”, for lack of a better term, around the reticle. The reticle looks decent when you get the diopter dialed in. The optic is nice hardware but it’s heavy, especially compared to a micro rds. If you are used to RDS and like them, this is not going to replace them because it’s not a true 1x zoom. Running it with two eyes open is awkward. There’s a fish eye thing going on. If you were running with only one eye open, it wouldn’t be so bad but i couldn’t get around the distortion of the almost 1x fish eye thing with two eyes open. It feels similar to looking through a scope over an RDS (cuz it is). I could see this being a decent option for like a slug shotgun meant for hunting, but not anti personnel defense. Just stick with a holosun rds if you don’t have the budget for an aimpoint.
