Title: Barska "Electro Sight"
Post by: TexGun on April 15, 2008, 08:24:31 PM

Anyone have any experience with Barska brand optics?  Since I just got my first AR and the price was right, I thought I'd experiment with one on my DPMS.

The optic is a model 1x30 IR M16 Sight, AC10984

I was wondering the same thing. I recieved a sportsmans guide catalog today that has the 1X30 AR electro scope in it. Looks and sounds nice. Hope someone has tried these, or has some info.

i have one of the sights and would recommend it for any .22 pistol. I have about 5k through it and only lost zero twice. As for the ARsystem  ??? but let me know how it turns out.

This sight appears to be the same as what comes on the Sig556 Holo, except with different branding and maybe one or two fewer features. It appears to be missing the light sensors for the automatic reticle dimming feature that is present on the Sig556 Holo's sight. You might find a used Sig556 Holo sight for a good price.
