NEW from Primary Arms: Odyssey Part 2 Launch

Published by
David Lane

Primary Arms has been killing it in the optics world lately, and to build on that, they have their second wave of new 2023 products releasing today! Welcome, the Odyssey Part 2.

SLx 3-18×50 FFP Rifle Scope Gen 2

The second generation of one of their most popular scopes, the SLx 3-18×50 FFP has some new features and some nicer build materials. 

The turrets are fully redesigned, a throw lever has been added, and the objective lens improved to 50mm. All told, these are some huge changes and make for a big improvement.

Three reticles are offered right now, Athena MIL, Apollo BDC for 6.5 Creedmoor/.224 Valk, and Apollo BDC for .308 Winchester/6.5 Grendel.

MSRP $500.

  • Exit Pupil 8mm – 2.8 Mm
  • Eye Relief 3.75 In
  • Total Windage/Elevation
  • Adjustment 64 Moa/100 Mos

Classic Series RD-25

You’ve all seen budget red dots before, and this is another from Primary Arms. 25mm window, 3 MOA dot, this is as simple as it seems. One majorly nice thing is that this comes with a QD mount, one feature you almost never see on a “budget” red dot. For the price, there is a lot to love here.

MSRP $130

  • Clear Aperture Diameter 24 Mm
  • Total Windage/Elevation Adjustment 100 Moa
  • Illumination 10 Settings
  • Length 2.64 In
  • Weight W/ Included Battery 7 Oz

PLx 1-8x24mm FFP Compact

Not a lot to talk about for this one. This is an FDE version of their very popular 1-8x compact LPVO.

MSRP $1,500

REVIEW COMING SOON

Both the Classic Series RD-25 and the SLx 3-18×50 scope landed on my doorstep about 10 minutes ago, so expect to see a review soon (ish)!
