Barska 1-4×28 IR SWAT-AR Riflescope Review

Barska 1-4x28 IR SWAT-AR Riflescope

The Barska 1-4×28 IR SWAT-AR Riflescope is a good, quality product that can be had at an unbeatable price. Out of the box, the crosshairs are nowhere near sighted, but it only takes 10-20 rounds to get it to zero. Once there, there is no need to readjust because it stays at zero with no issues, even after long-term use.

The lowest magnification on this scope is 1x. When used at this magnification, a rifle’s own iron sight can still be used. The highest magnification on the scope is 4x, and at this level, the scope still has a crisp, clear image, making it an ideal product for mid to long-range shooting. The scope’s reticle can be illuminated black, green or red. The green is best used during the day, and the red does an awesome job in low-light situations. When used in bright sunlight, the scope’s edged sunshade comes in handy; it casts a shadow that really does a lot for reducing glare.

This scope weighs in at 16 ounces, making it a nice, lightweight choice. It has a fine, matte finish that looks really sharp. It measures 10 inches, and due to its length, this scope is best suited for rifles with a full-length rail. On an AR-15, for example, it can be a little difficult to reach the charging handle when this scope is mounted, but it’s not a huge problem.

Barska 1-4x28 IR SWAT-AR Riflescope-2Included with this Barska scope are a low-profile mount, a battery and flip-up lenses caps. The lenses caps are made of plastic, but they’re very durable, and they are easily removable. They fit snugly on the scope, so there is no need to worry about the lenses being damaged when the scope is in transit or being stored. The scope features external target turrets, which keep it steady and securely locked down. Everything is sealed up nicely on this piece, preventing fogging and other water-related issues.

Considering the price and lifetime warranty, this Barska scope is definitely worth investing in. It is on the lower price spectrum when it comes to riflescopes, but it performs flawlessly.

 

 

BARSKA 3-9×42 IR Contour Riflescope Review (4A Mil-Plex IR 7/8″ Picatinny Base)

by

If you do a decent amount of looking around and research before purchasing this scope, let me tell you… you won’t regret at all. The quality of this scope is very impressive, and it is very easy to use. I mean really, I have to say it, for what you pay for this scope, you especially aren’t making a mistake; it just feels like a steal. You won’t break your bank at all!

The BARSKA 3-9×42 IR Contour Riflescope is specially good if you want something solid to shoot at longer distances.

Many people have had this scope for a while now and nobody has reported any failures yet. Your precision will increase greatly and you also will be able to hit your targets super accurately from around 100 yards, which is really cool. It would be nice to try this out on moving targets, or even on a hunt, I think it could probably do really well with that.

BARSKA 3-9x42 IR Contour Riflescope (4A Mil-Plex IR 7/8" Picatinny Base)It fit onto the rifle perfectly, the lens is super clear and provides such crisp vision; the crosshairs look great and really help you line up your shot; and the scope zeroes really fast and will stay there through a lot of rounds (I average around 20 before needing to readjust. I do want to say, however, that you should be sure the screws are in very tight to insure it doesn’t loosen up. That can be a slight inconvenience to fix while you’re shooting, but very avoidable of course.

I would definitely recommend this scope over the others out there, especially if you’re just starting out with this kind of thing, it’s perfect and easy to use.

 

BARSKA 1×30 IR M-16 Electro Sight Riflescope Review

by

 

As you read through several online reviews perhaps you may have mixed feelings about purchasing the BARSKA 1×30 IR M-16 Electro Sight Riflescope. After doing a little research outside of Amazon I found solid information on it and felt I could justify going ahead with the purchase. I mean compared to other red dot scopes you would assume their quality is a little better, but for what you pay for this, it’s really pretty worth it. Now, even if you are not a gun expert or a red dot scope expert, I think you may have a winner here. Many people and customers have used it for long periods of time and have not encountered any kind of serious problems with it.

You can easily mount it onto you AR-15 with no problem. It will sat on there nice and tight for a good number of rounds, I’d say around 15 and then you will have  to readjust it to be sure it is secure again. One great feature that you will love is the adjustable brightness on the scope; it is a great function and very important to have especially when you’re in a super sunny place (highest settings for bright, sunny days and lower settings for an indoor range or a cloudy day).

I would definitely recommend this red dot scope to those looking for one. You are going to save a lot of money compared to buying one of the higher end ones, and the shot accuracy is well worth it. You will be able to hit your targets with very good precision while using this red dot scope, that’s for sure!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BARSKA 4×20 Electro Sight Scope M-16 and AR-15 Riflescope Review

by

Meet the BARSKA 4×20 Electro Sight Scope M-16 and AR-15 Riflescope! This scope for your AR is an excellent purchase for the money, and really the price is totally reasonable too.

I’ve seen other scopes similar to this one go for over $200, and I don’t know about you, but I’m not usually willing to drop that kind of money.

But hey for a simple 4X scope that can give you a better view of something 100 ft away, I would take it!

I will say it feels a little more like a novelty scope than you know, a super serious one.

Some people have only really used the scope while practicing shooting at a range or been out in the open with friends practicing. I would think it may not be able to withstand too much wear a tear, but you never know. Maybe if you go out hunting or something you should give it a shot!

It’s really easy to use too! For those of you out there that may be new to shooting, or even new to the accessories, you can give it a try and buy it for your gun, don’t let this one intimidates you.

It’s really quite simple, you more or less just pop it right onto your gun and voilà! You’re ready to go. You can use it with your AR, and the lens has so far provided a very clear visual; it may take a minute for your eyes to adjust to the lens, but that really shouldn’t be an issue. The functionality of it is great; it zeroes in on the target very easily.

My wife even gave it a try—she’s new to shooting so I thought it would be something good for her to practice with. She did great, picked up on how to work it real quick.

The BARSKA 4×20 Electro Sight Scope will actually look really cool sitting there on top of your AR-15. It kinda beefs up the gun; makes it look a little more rugged, and hey that doesn’t hurt.

Definitely a great choice with an amazing price!
