    I have a 3x magnifier and a flip mount from PA, I love them both! I have the first gen 3x mag and recently got their flip to side mount! They have quality products and the best customer service out there by 100!

    Dont settle for the cheap $100 knockoffs. Ive had 2 bad experiences with them. I would go with a good 3x magnifier( name brand) & an ARMS FTS mount:twocents:

    I don't have a PA magnifier, but I do have one of their clone red dots. I am perfectly happy with it, and compared to other "clones" out there, it is much nicer. I am thinking seriously about picking up a magnifier from them as well.

    I bought the mini red and the 3X. They feel like quality pieces, I was really suprised. The magnifier has the adjustments to center the red dot. Very clear and seems to work great so far. I'm sure it doesn't compare to a thousand dollar mutiplier but I think they are worth the money :twocents:

    I am going to go with the cheap piece for now. I have a rough time shooting as it is and I don't have a place to shoot out that far in the first place. The cheapo is all I need at the moment. I would love to go check out one of the clones if anyone has one that they would like to show off. I am a gear nerd and love the best stuff I can use but in reality.... I cant justify spending the cash on an Aimpoint 3x mag.

    i think im going to go with primary arms deluxe 3x mag and their fts mount..im only going to be using this for picking and having fun..dont think a clearity difference can be worth $400 difference.. i guess if i dont like it i can sell it and only loose a little..

    does anyone have the FTS mount by primary arms? do u like it? I can't find a ARMS fts mount anywhere. Anyone have any links? i dont want to pay $150 for a larue..

    If you want their 3x deluxe magnifier then you might have to wait a month or more. They aren't expecting any word until at the earliest late March. If their history is any indication, then it will probably be more like mid to late April.

    For about $90 more they have the Burris 3x magnifier. Any good? I can't say.
