I have 2 of these (one is on my 1301) and 1 GLX - GLX is probably a bit nicer but I like them all.

Is glx a microprism as well? I'll have to look into that. If it's double the price, i can't do it.

Yeah slightly better version from primary arms, they’re like $50 more than the slx.

Oh sweet. I can manage $50. Cheers!

Watch some reviews first. "Better" is subjective. IIRC the glx uses buttons instead of a dial for on/off, which you may hate because they're flush with the optic body. Might be hard to use with gloves or in dark.
