Primary Arms Optics has made a name for itself by building optics that perform far beyond the price point. A great example of that is their SLx lineup. These are compact, feature-rich optics that serve across a spectrum of applications. Today, Primary Arms Optics is expanding that line with the SLx Compact 4-16x44mm First Focal Plane Rifle Scope.
SLx Compact FFP Scope -Performance at a Solid Price
Primary Arms Optics has now introduced the newest addition to the award-winning SLx lineup: the SLx Compact 4-16x44mm First Focal Plane Rifle Scope. Designed for those who want dependable mid-power precision without the associated weight or length. The new 4-16x44mm model delivers a remarkably compact profile, measuring just 10.1 inches in length and weighing 20.5 oz. Built for hunters, practical marksmen, and anyone who needs an agile rifle setup. This scope blends high performance with outstanding portability.

The new 4-16 is designed to feel equally at home atop a light hunting rifle or a compact DMR. Its 4-16x magnification range offers enough top-end power to stretch the legs of heavy-hitting cartridges. Meanwhile, the generous eye box and high-quality glass make quick shots and target transitions feel natural. The FFP (First Focal Plane) design ensures accurate measurements and holdovers at every magnification. Additionally, the wide adjustable parallax—from 10 yards to infinity—means this scope can be used on anything from rimfire to full-power rifle cartridges.
Reticle Options
Users can choose from three specialized reticle options, each built around Primary Arms’ signature ACSS technology.

The ACSS DEKA G2 reticle provides a clean MIL-based crosshair with a precise 0.1 MIL center dot and an intuitive ranging system usable from 300 to 1000 meters. It’s built for those who want an uncluttered, traditional aiming system that still offers the full features of an ACSS precision reticle.
A mainstay of our precision scopes, the ACSS Athena BPR MIL reticle returns with a finely tuned MIL-grid layout, an infinitely precise chevron tip, and extended holds for those who shoot long distances. Its built-in ranging features allow quick distance estimation without breaking position.
BDC
For those who prefer a BDC option, the ACSS HUD DMR .308 reticle provides a complete firing solution with compensation to 1,000 yards, moving target leads, wind holds, and a bold horseshoe for fast target acquisition. Designed around .308 Winchester and similar cartridges, it excels in scenarios where speed and precision are equally important.

Regardless of reticle, the new SLx 4-16x44mm FFP rifle scope brings a guarantee of quality, backed by extensive field testing. It is shockproof, waterproof, fog-resistant, and backed by Primary Arms Optics’ industry-leading Lifetime Warranty. So, you can count on it to last.

So, whether you’re hunting deep country or tightening groups at long range, this optic will give you confidence in every shot.”
