Fantastic AR15 scope. It’s crucial that you mount this properly to your own particular anatomy. I initially mounted this scope too low and too far forward, which created problems with the eye box. I then switched to a Badger Ordnance 1.93 scope mount and moved the scope back. This made all the difference in the world. The scope shoulders perfect both at 1 and 8 power. Great glass for the price. What sets this scope apart from all others is the ACSS reticle. Extremely easy to use.

I am always very honest and direct when I write reviews. So here it goes. This scope is amazing. Amazing for the common shooter. The practical rifleman. I am a combat vet. Used to the ACOG or a red dot. This scope or just the redicle would have been amazing overseas. I love this scope. The price point is excellent for what you get. I am not a gear snob. I'm a practical shooter. Family man. Thus budget is a big factor. I am so glad I got this. Ok on to infield results. Just this weekend I want out into BLM land. No flat range.. rolling small hills and nothing but my bipod or truck to shoot off of. I was able to ring steel at 500 yds all day. All you need is a very good zero. And then leave it alone! You won't regret this scope.

I finally got to the range with my new 1X8 Primary Arms Scope with ACSS reticle. I have to tell you that I really like this scope. The chevron is nice and very easy to sight with. I am able to hit metal plates at 100, 200 and 300 yards. With this AR15 scope and reticle, 300 yards is way to easy. While zeroing the weapon at the range, I had a few guys wanting to try it out and they all liked the reticle as well.

I'm extremely pleased with this AR15 scope! Glass is clear reticle is crisp and doesn't obstruct the field of view. Very forgiving eye relief and the focus ring works good which was my main issue with a Strike Eagle! You won't find anything remotely close in this price range! I

I've purchased about five different PA scopes and have been impressed with all of them, which is why they have been my go to scope. Good price and great quality. I usually give them five stars but I have to say I was a little let down with this one. I like the ACSS reticle the brightness and clarity. What I don't like is when you max out the magnification the background becomes fuzzy or blurry around the edges. It doesn't have the sharpness that I have come to know in their other less expensive AR scopes I've purchased from them. It's not so bad that you can't work with it but it does cause some concern at maximum magnification. I usually rave about how fast their shipping is as well but they even disappointed there on this one.

I have the PA 1-8 SFP mounted to my 16 in. Bull barrel AR-15. Quality is on par with the 1-6, but the additional 2x is a big plus for me. Noticeable fisheye @ 1x but workable and gone @ 2x. Low illumination is very, very low (a good thing) and highest setting is daylight bright. About the reticle... The good: all of the good things you've read about the 1-6 acss apply. The bad: For me I don't like the chevron as much as I thought I would. It's very small, and using the tip for 100 yd zero and base for 200 yd zero per the instructions just didn't work well for me. I figure the chevron represents only about 1.5 inches high @ 100 yds. My workaround: I zeroed @ 300 yds using the 300 yd mark on the BDC. Now the tip of the chevron is good for 50-200. Works great. All in all this is a nice AR 15 scope and the only entry level 1-8 on the market right now.

This is an excellent AR15 scope, well above its price point. I've had several Primary Arms optics before this one, and they continue to improve with each new product. Overall the scope is great. The glass is crystal clear, the scope feels solid and durable, illumination is bright, and the reticle is freakin awesome. Would definitely recommend.

I have this optic on a .308 AR Platform. I haven't had the opportunity to use this ar scope at more than 100 yds. but I love the Chevron apposed to the Dot that my old PA1X6 ACSS had. I also love the added magnification. I just need to get out to 500 - 800 yds. and really see what this scope can do.

Good illumination, from very dim to daylight bright. Good detents on the illumination dial. 1x great image, no distortion or fish eye, good eye box. 8x slightly blurry, eye box is small but usable. Decent windage and elevation detents, passed box test. Hoped for better image on high magnification. Great ar-15 scope for the money.
