Compact LPVO from PRIMARY ARMS

PRIMARY ARMS unveils the PLx Compact 1.5-12x36 LPVO, featuring a First Focal Plane reticle for enhanced clarity and magnification. With smooth magnification adjustment, illumination, and a parallax setting, it combines premium optics from Japan with practicality, though the turret requires cap removal for adjustments. More info is available online.

PRIMARY ARMS impresses with a new LPVO variant that promises more magnification in a compact design. The PLx Compact 1.5-12x36 features a First Focal Plane (FFP) reticle, which thus increases in size with greater magnification. The glass comes from Japan and impresses with its clarity even at the edges. At least that's our first impression from viewing it at the trade show. 

The ring for adjusting the magnification operates very smoothly. Two levers are included, one long and one short. 

The optic also offers illumination. Another notable feature is the parallax setting, which will initially only be available in yards. To adjust the turret, the protective cap must be removed. The clicks are clean and strong. The zero can be reset, but there is no zero-stop. Pricing is expected to be in the upper segment due to the premium series, likely around 2700 euros. You can find more info about the optic HERE.
