Any of you running the Primary Arms micro red dot sight on your AR? If so how do you rate it as a lower end Aimpoint T1 Clone?

I run one as a primary sight on my .22 long rifle AR build and I also run them as secondary red dots on two other rifles. They are great for the money they cost. Great customer service as well.

Some reviews I have written on them.

I run one on my AR and it is good for the money but I now have the XPS and like it more.

For what it is, cheap aimpoint micro clone, it works well. I have two, 1 on my dedicated 22lr ar15 and one on a 5.56 bushmaster. Both hold zero and have no issues yet. For range use there great for the money.

I would buy them again for that purpose.

For serious use stick with an AP T1 or the like. For the range they are gtg.

I tried one on my dedicated .22 AR for almost a year to see if I liked the T-1 concept before I dropped the coin on an Aimpoint for one of my 5.56 carbines. I'm glad I did, because I found I don't care for the small tube design with no covers.

The PA Micro was fine, though - no problems at all, it's a solid little RDS. It's even better now that Marshall changed the design to move the emitter off to the side.

The mount is a pos, but it's still holding zero after 1k or so rounds.
