Does anyone have this on a GSG5? If so I would like to know the full set up.

Would a GG&G #1191 AIMPOINT ACCUCAM CANTILEVER MOUNT work with the scope? I am think about getting one.

I ordered an M3 clone and a 3x with a QD mount on Sunday night - they got here today already. Super smooth process - I got confirmation emails for ordering and shipping.
I'm going to mount everything up tonight, but from what I can tell by playing with them so far, this stuff's pretty damn solid. More than adequate for the kind of shooting I do. |

Ordered M3 red dot sight, received in less that 3 days. Works great, mounted tight. Good communication. Would buy from again! Thanks! -Phil

Thanks Marshall for a great product and super fast delivery. I ordered on Sat and had it in my hands that Tues. I hope to try it out this weekend.
|

Just ordered the M3 mag combo!
I didn't need too, but my BRD gave me no choice. Looks like I'll be selling my current set up. Anybody want a DMS-1? |

Ordered my multi reticle m3 clone off your site about 2 months ago and I love it! Holds zero well and feels solid. I'm almost positive I'll be ordering your 3x mag in the near future. Definitely a great bang for your buck. Thanks!

well....after all the great reviews, I just submitted my order tonight for the M3 Multi reticle 3x combo with the quick release mount for the mag. Can't wait to try it out! I also had to throw in a Ergo Suregrip....been wanting to try one of those out! I have read absolutely nothing negative about your products and can't wait to give them a try...I look forward to trying them all out and doing more business with you in the future.

Went today and picked up Multi reticle M3 combo with 3x magnifier from Marshal and I can say that he is a great and very professional. THIS IS A GOOD PRODUCT QUALITY!!! I was there with my brother and Marshal pull out genuine Aimpoint since we asked him to compare and we were amazed, we couldnt tell the difference in sight picture. Red dot and clearness of view was about the same.
I hope this opinion would help you guys, Mike. |

Ok, so you know how BUIS are Back-ups, in case your main optics fail? Well... Guess I got a little rough during a carbine course over the weekend. Was running from one cover to the other and I guess I banged my AR a little too hard right before i fired. I pull the trigger and "BAM" my MI ERS BUIS Explodes and catches me right in the dome. Luckily, my Primary arms M3 clone is completely unaffected and allows me to finish the course with a personal record.
In short, Thank you Marshall for putting out such a great quality product for a great price. As soon as you're flip to side mount comes out, I'll be ordering the 3x mag, and then your ACOG style when it comes out. You are greatly appreciated. -KABAdeadeye |

any word on the flip to side mount? Update: So you understand how hard it is to pin down a deliver date here is the response I got from my contact at the factory. "We are trying to see if we can make it out till the early August." |
|
After reading the reviews here I order the M3 clone with high cant mount on wend. and they were delivered about an hour ago - mounted right up - feels solid - optics are clear - heading to the range tomorrow to sight in. So far so good - thanks Marshall for a solid product at a great price!

Just curious how many rounds the owners of any Primary Arms optic has through one of the products and how well it holds up. I'm debating on whether or not to get one. I shoot often and would rely heavily on the optic more than the average shooter, so I'm trying to cover all grounds before purchasing.
|
|
Ive only shot a couple hundred rounds with it mounted on my gun and so far it is holding up great. It hasnt lost zero yet, but I guess only time will tell on that one.. Im sure many other people have shot much more than that with it on but thats just my personal experience. I have pretty good faith in it though as it is still zeroed in after having dropped it a couple times.

Will the Primary Arms M3 Multi Reticle Magnifier Combo work with an ARMS40A2: A.R.M.S. #40 STANDARD A2 FLIP UP REAR SIGHT????
Basically will that particular sight fit under the magnifier? I measure from the top of flat top to the top of the sight and its just about 1.0 inch tall |

how come the strap that holds on the sight adjustment caps and battery cover cap changed? I just got one of the M-3s and noticed that all pics show it with the aimpoint style cap retaining band, yet mine is a M-3 but the caps are held on like the M-3 multi-reticle. I sent you an email asking the same question

I sent you an email asking the same question Nothing has changed. The wires have always been there as a backup, under, the rubber cap retention. The rubber piece should be in the box. If it is not there I will send you one. This is the same for the M3 and M3 multi. |

I went back and found the part sitting in the box. Thanks alot, fast shipping and a great product

I've had my M3 multi reticle for about 3 months now and got a chance yesterday to put it through the ringer with my Dad at the range. In short it passed with flying colors.
I started off zeroing in at 50yds and then moved out to 100yds. At 100yds I was getting groupings around 4 or 5 in and the led in the sight never flickered or shut off, unlike my Dad's cheapo red dot that shut off after every shot and this was on a 22 target pistol. Toward the end I really wanted to test the rifle, recently finished build, and see if I could get a failure of some type. I'm happy to say that both the AR and the M3 held up great! It was pretty impressive seeing all the smoke billowing off the barrel and seeing that reticle still holding zero. Thanks again to Marshal for providing a good quality product for a good price. I apologize for not having pics, but I forgot my camera and my binocs yesterday. |

Just received my M3 clone and I have to say everyone was right. This scope looks and feels great. I can' wait to get it to the range. Marshal many thanks for such a great sight. Price was so low my wife didn't even notice I bought it. I will be telling all my friends where to get theirs.
Ordered middle of the night of friday and had it on Monday. Just got to sight in my M3 clone. Two shots and it was a done deal. The click values are dead on. I am more impressed with this sight every time I handle it. |

Ordered on a Friday, received on a Monday. It's taking much longer to get a lower side mount (BP-02), but I couldn't wait to mount it (should arrive Wed.). So off came the 3X9 scope for testing. And it works just fine on the high mount. Laser boresighted without any problems. Will be doing business with PA in the future for my other evil guns.

Can't help but commend Marsh on his fantastic customer service. Ordered late Saturday morning, had shipping notification within an hour and had the sight in my hands by noon on Monday here in NC. Can't be any faster unless you use a Star Trek transporter. Excellent sight, just need my upper to try it out. Got a couple of experienced shooting buddies who are looking hard at Primary Arms now.

Any torture tests on these yet? Would bet they could survive some abuse.
|
|
Leave it to me to wait until I miss a good thing but last month I saw M3 clones with 2MOA dots and now I only see the ones with 4MOA dots. When are the 2 MOA M3's coming back in?

Any torture tests on these yet? Would bet they could survive some abuse. Came back from a trip home this weekend. My Dad and I went to the range for some fun and I put about 400 rounds downrange with my M3 multi Ret. Some of it was slow fire for zeroing, but I ran a few mags rapid fire through and she held zero no problem. Banged it around on the table a bit too, but no problems there either. It would be interesting to see how these hold up in a carbine course, but my guess based on what I've seen is they would do just fine. I think once Marsh gets the T1 micros in, if there are any left, I will grab one of those and give my Dad this one for his AK. For the money these things just can't be beat. |

Can I get a micro dot? Hopefully in about 30 days when they come in. |
|
The more and more I see the micro dots, the more I like them. Maybe I'll have to pick one up for my next build, an SBR. But I really want the acog style for my carbine.
|
|
any word on the flip mounts Marshall?
Eta: nevermind I read your answer on the acog style thread.

08/25/09 I am completely out of magnifier mounts but a order of QD and screw mounts is shipping this week and should be in house by the end of next week

Marshall,
Can you provide dimensional info, including weight, on your two magnifiers? Also, have you done a comparison of the construction, inside & out, for your product compared to the AimPoint product. I'd be interested in how they compare. Many thanks, Old SF MJT |

Many thanks, Old SF MJT 3X 6.75oz - 4 5/8" long - 1 5/8" at the widest point 5X 7.0z -5.5" long - 1 5/8" at the widest point The light transmission of a Aimpoint is better in low light. You can not compare when it comes to shock rating and internal seals. The Aimpoint are designed to hold up in a war zone, tested with many more impacts at higher g-force. Aimpoints are waterproof to 20 meters. Keep in mind you don't need that to handle the recoil of a AR, .308 or to train in the rain but they are designed to survive the unexpected. The Aimpoint and new EOTech have adjustmenst to perfectly center the dot in the magnifier window. The PA ones do not. I do stock the burris 3X that has the adjustments. |

hey marshall,what's the chance of getting an m3 clone with just a 2 min. dot and the aa battery. i'm kinda leery of bumping the switch that changes the reticles.
plus i think the m3 looks better. bob |

I do plan on offering more choices next year but right now I would just like to have the current ones in stock. |

I wouldn't worry about bumping the switch, it is very positive in the detents and doesn't move accidentally. it isn't sticky but you will not nudge it out of place.
I am still loving my m3 multi and every one else who has tried it likes it a lot. I just need a qd mount that returns to zero for it, and another for the scope. I want magnifier on a qd or flip but obviously precise zero isn't as big a issue. I have a feeling I will be spending more on mounts than the optics by the time I am done.

Have these been tested on shotguns? I think I might use one on my Saiga 12, if it can handle the abuse...

The new ones will be in by the end of the month. The AR riser is the only delay at this point so I told the factory that I will take delivery of the micros this month if the riser is still not ready. You don't need the riser for your Saiga. I have the Ultimak rails for the Saiga and will have a package price with the MD when they arrive. |

Happy camper with my M3 multi reticle so far. Only have 600 rds with it so far , but I took it off last night . Dont know why (playing ) Took it out today, it was within 1/2 " at 50 yds. A few clicks and right back on track. I was shocked ,but a happy cowboy non the less.

After reading the reviews I have decided to purchase your M3 clone with the 2MOA dot. It seems to be the best optic for the price and your customer service comes highly recomended. Please keep us up to date on the avaliability of the optic as well as the FTS mount for the magnifier. Hope to have them soon! Thanks!

got my 2moa dot m3 clone today and I will agree with everyone else, a great product at a very fair price.
zero'd and held like a champ with 223 and its a rainy sorta day, no fogging or other problems also, the sight came very well boxed up with foam cutouts for everything and even a spare set of batteries, I dont know if you actual box them of if your supplier does but it is a nice touch. anyway, this is absolutely NOT your typical low cost sight experience you do a good job now i am just waiting for you to get a 3x magnifier in stock again. |

Just to clarify the single dot M3 is a 4MOA dot. The magnifiers are in stock. Magifier mounts are in Houston waiting for customs clearance. |
