Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-10-2015
Anyone here have any experience with this guy? Recoil magazine gave it a pretty darn good review for the price ect. I want to finish my ar this year (like I keep repeating...) But figured in the meantime I should figure out what all I'm aiming for.

I have one of them! I love the thing! Really great Red Dot. You will love it 2 MOA dot. Throw a Vortex VMX-3T (3x) magnifier behind it and you have a hell of a platform! It is far superior to the the Strikefire II for $20 more. Highly recommended. They are usually around $200.
RE: Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-10-2015
Beautiful! that's basically what they said in the review and it intrigued me.. but between that and you saying it's good then I feel like it's off to a good start!
RE: Vortex SPARC II - bradberry - 06-10-2015
I own the vortex strike force 2 and i love it
RE: Vortex SPARC II - nickdemo - 06-11-2015
now the red dot is around 200 is the 3x magnifier much more? do they make one that gos with this?
RE: Vortex SPARC II - BelieveIn308 - 06-11-2015
The magnifer is like $200 also, but check out ebay, sometimes they have NEW ones at a deep discount. I think I paid $154 for the last one I bought (I have several). The Vortex VMX-3T is a Vortex product, and works great with either the SPARC II or the Strikefire II. I use mine behind EOTech 522's...
RE: Vortex SPARC II - bradberry - 06-11-2015
I will look at the SPARC. I need to buy optics for 4 more builds and I am not sure what I want to put on them yet.
RE: Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-11-2015
If you look up the article from recoil, it might convince you. They beat the crap out of the thing and it worked fine from what they said
RE: Vortex SPARC II - BelieveIn308 - 06-11-2015
Ouch, 4 red dots and 4 magnifiers can get pricey. If you plan on buying them all at once, I'd ask about a volume discount.
RE: Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-12-2015
That would be impressive though! You should get 4 different setups with the SPARC II and let me know which one works best. Haha

I've heard nothing except good reviews on the Sparc II. I plan on adding one to my AR, but I have another priority first which is an EDCC 9mm which I have finally narrowed my choices down to down to 3 or 4 models.
RE: Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-13-2015
Which ones you looking for?

G43, Shield and waiting to see the Walther CCP

No, it will be one or two at a time. I am replacing all my triggers also. So the balance of this year besides finishing my 10.5" build I will get one trigger and I am going to buy the Vortex SPARC. I also need to get a Aero Ultralight 30mm scope mount but they are all out of stock right now. I also need to get a to Flash Hider and I even considered a Silencer from Silencerco http://silencerco.com/products/specwar/ , but that depends if I can get over my feelings with sending more data and money to the feds.

You must not be from Illinois... In the People's Republic, Silencers are not legal to own.
I think the Vortex Sparc II are a huge bang for the buck. I love the Geissele SSA-E triggers. They are not cheap but they really are good (3.5lb, two stage, really clean breaking, and fast reset).
RE: Vortex SPARC II - Ringo3632 - 06-24-2015
I wish we could pick up a silencer here. I'd definitely put that on the list!

The SSA-E is what i put on another build and I really, really REALLY, liked it. It was so precise and clean. The Silencerco may have to wait until all other items are finished.
