So I need a handgun sight, but have severe astigmatism. I have heard the Primary Arms 1x prism scope has "basically unlimited" eye relief but I don't know if that would make it suitable for use on a handgun. I don't really want a full size handgun scope either due to the size.Does anyone have the 1x? Can you confirm how good the eye relief is holding it out at arm's reach like you would on a handgun?
>>62087876If I were you, I'd be more worried about whether my handgun had picatinny top rails, because not many do.
>>62087876Bump for interest. As far as I know magnified prism optics have short eye relief but maybe its different for 1x..
>>62088003Mine does, I wouldn't have made the thread without considering this
Just get an rmr HD it has a circle reticle which is easier on astigmatisms. Poormary arms prisms are terrible optics for rifles let alone putting that big heavy pos on a handgun.
>>62087876Get glasses, there arent any pic railed handguns outside 22 target pistols

>>62087876>>62088034Even a 1x still has an eye box though its very forgiving for a rifle. It would not work well on a pistol. Instead get a red dot with the smallest dot you can and treat it like a larger one. EX: 3moa dot RMR becomes the 6 moa dot model for you.
>>62087876>So I need a handgun sight, but have severe astigmatismStart practicing your point-shooting then, numbnuts
>>62088311Ok boomer
>>62088280>>62088403>easier on astigmatismNo, nothing works. I cannot use red dots, it's simply not possible.>>62088311I own one, I wouldn't have made this thread otherwise
>>62088637It's a target pistol meant for long range.
>>62088851So step up your point-shoot practice routine. Goddamn broccoli headed zoomers are lazy
>>62088861In exchange for bumping my thread I will give your bait a (you). Pleasure doing business anon.
>>62088825I don’t believe you. I have an astigmatism and use pistol dots fine.
>>62087876Are those fags making one with .5 moa adjustments yet?
>>62088914>I don't believe youToo bad>>62088945I doubt you (or any of your guns) come anywhere close to 1 MOA of accuracy at 100 yards. You'd be lucky to get 5 MOA.
>>62089271Nigger you don't know me. I can put 37/50 shots on a B27 at 100y with a DAO j frame.
>>62087876Tested it as soon as I got home from work, can't believe no one did yet.It's definitely usable, much better than I expected, but you'll have a bit of shadow depending on your arm length. I'd say go for it.
>>62090488You have my thanks anon, just ordered one. Worst case I return it. A bit of shadow is nothing compared to my astigmatism.
OP the 1x has huge eye relief but the problem with a prism on a pistol is its so heavy its a block of glass might screw with the slight weightIts a good idea though
>>62090857*slide weight
>>62087876Why not just irons? Slap an XS Big Dot on there and call it a day.
>>62087876Astigmatism literally doesn't matter. Focus on the target, not the dot.
I didnt read the thread but eye relief retard, it's not a red dot
>>62088218Almost no pistol on this earth has pic rails.
>>62091673pretty sure op has a deagle
>>62088825Anon, most people have astigmatism. Suck it the fuck up, yes you can use a red dot. If its really that bad you can't drive at night. >>62088311Anon....
>>62088311>>62091673>>62091708Or perhapse a contender / encore. Either way, the fisrt two of you are retarded
>>62087876I assume you've done this already, but just in case you haven't: tell your eye doctor about the issue and explain how it is affecting your shooting. If they're worth a shit they'll work with you to get it right. Your doctor may not be specifically correcting for an astigmatism. I had to do this with my prescription. Don't be shy and tell them that it's fucking up your groups.
>>62091735There's zero chance that OP would be as inexperienced as he seems and shooting one of those.
>>62087876Lmao, no. The thing is bulky as hell and weighs a ton. Get glasses or get your eyes fixed.t. fellow football-eye
