A noob type of question.
I bought one of those Primary Arms micro dot and magnifier in the recent deal they had. I have never installed a magnifier on an AR 15. Anything I should know that is out of the common sense area for installing a magnifier? Any info would be appreciated if there are little tidbits or other unique installation things about magnifiers I should know. |
It goes BEHIND the optic. 
Other than that there isn't much to it in my experience. I had one H-1 that seemed to like the magnifier one slot further back than other optics (focused the dot better for some reason). So you might play with the spacing a little to see what works best for that optic and your eyes. I've only used Eotech models but the whole concept is pretty simple/hard to mess up. Doubt it will be any different with the PA product. |
