    Vortex Sparc

    I bought a Vortex Sparc two weeks ago during the sale at PSA. I finally got to shoot it yesterday and I was very pleased. Right out of the box it was dead on at 25 yards. I am not sure if this was a fluke or not but shooting a quarter sized group with out adjusting it was awesome. The only other optic I own is a Eotech 512.

    I have been using a Sparc for over a year now. I am very pleased with it so far and will continue to use it till it breaks and when it does break I am glad the Vortex has a no BS warranty.

    I've had about 5k rounds or so down range with my sparc. Still holding zero, original battery.

    As a result of this thread, I just ordered one to put on my 7.62 x 39 upper. Paid $128.49 with shipping.

    Awesome! That's about what I paid with shipping from PSA. I"ll be buying another for my 870 for hunting. The 2x magnification should be a big plus for that application

    Good to hear. So many companies have shitty customer service these days it's refreshing to hear good things about a company.

    The sparc is a great mid-level RDS for sure! Held zero through 700 rounds / carbine class very well. I did finding myself tightening the screws on the riser every now and then but I was very happy with it.

    I keep looming at these and I can't really say no! Especially after buying a strike fire~

    I'm considering a SPARC II. Anyone had any experience with this one?

    I've played around with the sparc and strikefire one and my only complaints were addressed in the second gen models. If I can't find a good Black Friday deal on a mepro tru dot or aimpoint pro I might grab a strikefire 2.

    I'll be able to review for you all the StrikeFire II in just a couple weeks. The rifle i won from Gunstruction includes it and is off to BDL Custom Finishes. They should have it done right quick and I should have it here to test in just a couple weeks more.
