Clear and quickly detachable
Glass clarity is superb. With it coming with the quick detachable mount is very handy. Detent on the mount pivot is strong. Alignment to the reticle was easy to do. Simply superb.

This was an excellent pair
This was an excellent pair with the AMG UH-1. The glass is clear and provides a usable image even when light is lower. The mounting process is simple, and the extra spacers for adjustable height are a nice touch. The swing to side feature works great, holds the magnifier firm in place even when the rifle gets knocked around a bit. In the first couple hundred rounds, the mount didn't come lose, but it would wiggle back and forth in the rail slot. Tightened it down with a torque wrench and its stayed put since. Great way to increase your effective range with a good red dot or Holographic sight

Great optic for a very reasonable price.
The optic is really good for the price point along with the lifetime warranty is what really helped make my decision. the view through the magnifier is clear and easy to use.

?Punches Well Above Its Weight Class (and Price Point)
Paired this with a Vortex AMG on a 14. 5" build and the synergy is perfect. One of the best features is the updated mount-being able to swap the flip direction for left- or right-handed use is a game changer. It aligns perfectly with absolute or lower 1/3 heights thanks to the included shim. The glass clarity holds its own against much more expensive competitors, and knowing the VIP warranty is there if I ever beat it up too hard in the field gives total peace of mind

Good magnifier
Sturdy optic but the eye box is tighter than I would prefer but overall works very well with the AMG UH II.

Rugged and has a positive
Rugged and has a positive retention in both positions. The clarity is amazing and lines up great with a lot of optics out there. Not just Vortex.

It does the job well
For the price this is a good magnifier. The mount works well, and the glass is alright (can't expect that much from china made optics), just mounted a bit low for my EOTech.

The clarity on this 3x magnifier is excellent. It took about 5 minutes to install and was ready to go- read the instructions and it's super easy. It's the perfect pairing for my red dot. You can quickly and easily flip it out of the way if you don't want to use it, and then just slap it back down and you are ready to go.

Clear glass, solid mount, and
Clear glass, solid mount, and the quick connect makes it easy to transfer between multiple guns. It locks solidly in the up or side positions. I use it with a Sparc and StrikeFire.

Great magnifier
I've tried many more expensive magnifiers and this one beats out many of them. I like that Vortex includes everything you need for different cowitness and the mount is very easy to use. Overall the image is clean. Love this.

Eye relief only negative
It's a great magnifier that moves out of the way quick and easy but wanting to have iron sights on my AR makes it very awkward to get setup in eye relief distance. Going to take some getting used to.

Surprisingly solid little magnifier. It's compact, lightweight, and pairs well with my red dot without adding much bulk. The glass is clear, and the flip-to-side mount feels sturdy.

Great magnifier!
I was very surprised by this optic, it holds its own against much more expensive optics. At the end of the day its a quick option to get a more precise shot but if you really want precission use a LPVO or higher magnification scope. It is excelent for PID and the glass quality is awesome. Do to the QD mount I have been able to use it on multiple rifles and optics to include the strikefire, UH1, Sparc solar, Sparc, Crossfire, Aimpoint T2, Aimpoint acro, Trijicon MRO, Holosun 503, 403 and more and it works great with everything you pair it too. I also have the 6x but much less time and rounds on it.

Excellent magnifier
This works great with my 1x Prism. The action is easy, but stays in place well with no manual lock. Very minimal parallax at the edges, but it doesn't distract. The reticle in the prism optic is crisp and clear. Good for any user.

Doesn't get any better !
The Micro 3X paired with the Gen II Crossfire Green Dot is by far the best, most accurate and durable dot and magnifier setup for a total MSRP of $700. They work great together, some of the clearest glass in the industry , and man can they take a beating while maintaining-0-. Being a Wisconsin boy im a die hard loyal Vortex fan.

This magnifier works great. It is just as clear and crisp as the EOTech units, but you get a much better warranty.

Nce upgrade
This was a nice upgrade from my old Vortex magnifier. Smaller footprint, lighter, and no need to push a button to flip it. Working great on my 8. 5" . 300blk.

Small and clear. Eye relief is good.
Paired it up with my Vortex Defender XL on a Ruger LC Carbine 45. A perfect combo. Clear optics. Now I can reach out to 100 yards easier with my old eyes while having an advantage of closer shots.

Best value?.
This magnifier is by far one of the best values in 3x magnifiers. Good quality glass, good eye relief, and durable. I actually prefer this over the Aimpoint and would put it up there with EoTech.
