  • So I noticed folks use a magnifier with a red dot sight, however, I was curious about the possibility of using a magnifier with prism optics?

  • Kyle, generally no Sir unless the magnifier is matched to the Prism Optic. Magnifiers do not work well with prism sights as it shifts the point of impact, reducing accuracy. Red dots are parallax free. Prism scopes can have issues with parallax. There are internally magnified Prism Optics available. Cheers and stay safe! pewpewtactical.com/best-prism-scopes/

  • Kyle, unfortunately no, magnifiers don't work with prism optics. They do make prism optics that are already magnified though. I'm not crazy about red dots even when magnified. I prefer a lpvo/ low power variable optic. You can get a lpvo scope with 1-4 magnification, 1-6 magnification, 1-8 and so on. Hope this helps.

  • NO, with an exception. That exception are Primary Arms SLx 1x MicroPrism and the SLx 3x Full Size Magnifier. Apart from this combo, no you cannot use a magnifier with prism 1x optic. Primary Arms SLx 1x MicroPrism and the SLx 3x Magnifier are the only magnifier and prism optic combo that works due to SLx 1x having infinite eye relief. I hope this helps!
