I am not picking a fight or wanting to ruffle feathers but I continue to hear you tubers say that the cr 2032 battery is not easy to find. DAMN! If you have trouble finding a cr 2032 battery maybe you shouldn’t own an AR Rifle or any firearm! Jesus!
The newest variant of the SPARC AR is reported to have up to a 50,000 hour battery life, so it's now in the same league as Aimpoint - at least as far as battery life is concerned.
Just saw your review. I have the original Sparc as well, and my "bikini cover" tore too! I emailed Vortex and they shipped me a new one for free. Nice customer support. I learned afterwards that the flip up caps from the Sparc II are compatible with the original, so I may go that route and not deal with the "bikini" tearing. Totally on board with the AR's using a conventional battery. Someday...
I like the new Sparc AR. I’m gonna go out on a limb here, but the aaa battery life probably isn’t as good as a coin but they are cheap and plentiful and there’s loads of places to stash spares on most AR’s. My 3-gun rifle has space for about 12 of them in the buttstock, and grip storage area, although I don’t use those storage areas for that and instead have extra parts for the gun and a few coin batteries because I use a magnified optic and backup irons on a 45.
Hey sir I am looking to put a red dot on my ruger scout rifle in 350 legend . What would you recommend ? I hunt in new england 150 yards or less I like this red dot would it be a good choice for hunting.
Thanks for the review Adriel, I’m thinking of a Revolution Armoury Impact R4 semi auto 12 gauge and was considering one of these red dots if I get it. Which would you recommend for a shotgun? Either of these, or something altogether different? Right now, I’m leaning towards the AR Sparc out of these 2 you showcased. Also looked at the solar version, but to me that’s just more to end up breaking, and is $100 more for what’s otherwise what appears to be the same optic. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
If a friend got a new AR style for range or 3 gun, would you direct him towards SPARC AR, Strikefire 2, or cheaper like Crossfire red dot or Sig Romeo 5? I like the compact size of the micro but the 30mm Strike 2 just seems effortless to my eyes. What's your thoughts?

👍😆
Common battery is definitely a huge deal. Thanks for your review, I wonder how battery life will compare?

I like how compact the SPARC AR is. If I'd go bigger, I might get something like the Aimpoint Pro and to get better durability/build quality.
Canada.
Sparc AR absolute or lower 1/3 co-witness?
I like the absolute, but it's up to the users taste.
