Description
The Vortex SPARC® AR is a great and economical way to upgrade a rifle’s sighting system. It boasts a 2 MOA dot powered by a common AAA battery that lasts for up to 50,000 hours thanks, at least in part, to its auto-off feature. This 1X optic adjusts to a max of 90 MOA for windage and elevation in 1 MOA increments. It has unlimited eye relief and is great for competitions, CQB, or putting in some much-needed range time.
The Vortex SPARC AR is tough enough to hold up to shock and recoil and is also nitrogen-purged to withstand the elements. And if the unthinkable does happen, have confidence that the Vortex VIP Warranty covers it. It ships with a T-10 Torx wrench, a AAA battery, a rubber cover with flip caps, an absolute co-witness mount, and a lower 1/3 co-witness mount. This red dot optic is barely noticeable with its 8.6 ounce weight and 2.9” length which is great for those extended range sessions.
Upgrade the sighting system on your rifle, today. Buy your new Vortex SPARC AR Red Dot from Pyramyd AIR.

Nearly perfect product! My only gripe with this product is the score caps. Until the rubber part connecting the cap to the rest of the unit is well worn in, the cap wants to stay closed. So the field of view is partially obstructed as a result. If there were compatible flip caps available or sold with the device, this product would be perfect.

overall its a good sight while i was able to use it, after taking it to the range for the 4th time while i was shooting the battery cover flew off. i've been trying to find cover replacements and i cant find any

This thing has failed for the second time in 2 yrs.! Sent it back in 2022, was "repaired". Recently took the rifle/SPARC out of the safe to take to the range. Red dot would not turn on, tried 2 known good batteries, cleaned contacts. Still dead. In for repair again! Not impressed at all! Would not buy again, not worth the money.

Let’s start with the good. First off, it is a cool concept. Having a red dot with a protected battery compartment in the mount while using a very common household battery is awesome. Secondly, aside from the somewhat thin cross bolt, this optic seems rock solid. Great construction quality paired with an included protector and caps. Makes you think of the g33 magnifier but way more affordable. That’s about all the good I have. Now for the bad. While the optic durability and glass quality seems good, the emitter quality is horrendous. The refresh rate on this diode is criminally low. Transitioning from one target to the next makes the reticle look like it’s lagging. It is somewhat disorienting especially in low light paired with a weapon light. Secondly, this optic like many other modern red dots has an unbelievably amazing battery life…. Yet it’s the ONLY red dot out there today I’ve seen with such battery life AND a shut off feature after 12 hours. Which is fine because the sig Romeo 4t and many other optics do the same. EXCEPT the sparc AR does not have a shake awake like the rest. Now you’re shutting off every 12 hours to save your already like 500 year long battery life and now have the extra step of making sure your dot is on when you hear someone trying to steal your toaster and touch your kids at 2 am. While it’s currently on my home defense gun, it won’t be for long. I will replace it soon with probably a crossfire or Romeo what ever and forget I ever touched this thing. I might not even sell it as I don’t want some other poor soul to suffer the curse that comes with this optic. Vortex makes great stuff. This ain’t one of em.
