| What are your opinions on them? Quality? I know a Acog or Eotec would be much better but I cant afford a $300-$900 sight. I have seen Barska before but want to know the quality before I seriously look into making a purchase. |

There are some good scopes for under $ 300. I like the Bushnell 3200 scopes. What power scope are you looking for and what do you want to use it for. edit based only on what I read here I might be willing to gamble on a SPOT red dot. They run around $ 150ish. I bought a used bushnell, which is an eotech, for a $ 100 and change a few years ago. I also have a Simmons 1-4x shotgun scope that I got for under $ 200. A lot of three gun guys use that simmons scope I've never owned a Barska, I wasn't impressed with the ones I saw. |

Well I am just looking for something besides my BUIS. Something for the range for fast target identification. This is what I was looking at. www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=335918 |

How about here for $149: www.mgimilitary.com/SPOT_Mark3_Scope.htm The ones at mountsplus.com are 3moa and 6moa. The one listed at the site above claims 4moa. I'd be interested to find a manufacturers homepage to see if they actually do come in 3, 4 and 6 moa. |

I tried a couple of Barska optical products from Sportsman's Guide. I was not pleased with either. One (a rifle scope) I sent back to Sportsman's Guide because one of the lenses had what I can only describe as a "bubble" in it. I ended up "eating" about $20 in shipping on that deal. Sportsman's Guide would not credit me for the shipping even though the product was defective. I did not want a replacement. I'm guessing Sportsman's Guide sold it to someone else. The other product (a monocular) I kept. The images are OK, but they're a little "murky." The rubber cladding covering the optic, too, is pealing away. Based on my limited experience, I would not recommend any of the Barska products. |
