Primary Arms SLx 1-8x24 FFP Rifle Scope integrates a first focal plane (FFP) design that keeps the illuminated ACSS Griffin X MIL reticle accurate across its entire 1-8x magnification range. This low power variable optic (LPVO) is engineered for rapid target acquisition at close quarters and precise engagement at mid-range distances. Its compact 24mm objective lens and lightweight 17.9-ounce aluminum body enhance maneuverability without compromising durability.
This rifle scope features a fully multi-coated lens system that improves light transmission and reduces glare for clear sight pictures in variable lighting conditions. The reticle includes a center chevron, moving target leads, and a MIL/MRAD grid, supported by tactile, audible 0.1 MIL turret adjustments for reliable zeroing. The moveable and replaceable magnification ring fin provides customizable grip, while the low-profile capped turrets protect against accidental movement. Waterproof and fog proof construction ensures consistent performance in harsh environments, and the lifetime warranty offers long-term confidence in this rugged optic.

FAQ
How does the ACSS Griffin X MIL reticle improve shooting performance? The reticle offers ranging capabilities and moving target leads in MIL units, allowing shooters to quickly estimate distance and compensate for target movement. Its first focal plane design means reticle subtensions remain accurate at all magnifications, making it reliable for both close quarters and mid-range engagements.
Is this scope suitable for low light conditions? The fully multi-coated lenses combined with the illuminated red reticle improve visibility at dawn, dusk, or shaded environments. However, this model is not night vision compatible, so it is optimized for standard low-light scenarios rather than NV device use.
What maintenance is needed to ensure longevity? Regular cleaning of the lens surfaces with proper optics cleaning materials is recommended. The scope is waterproof and fog proof, so it can withstand adverse weather, but storing it dry and protected will extend its lifespan. The 30mm tube and turret caps add additional durability during transport and use.
How does this scope compare to other 1-8x LPVOs? Primary Arms SLx combines a robust reticle system with a lightweight package at a competitive price point. Its first focal plane reticle and tactile turrets offer functionality comparable to higher-end optics while maintaining affordability and a lifetime warranty.
Can the magnification ring fin be customized? Yes, the magnification ring fin is moveable and replaceable, allowing users to adjust the grip based on personal preference for rapid magnification changes during dynamic shooting.
