Barms 98 Posted November 20, 2013 On amazon right now it looks like the Sparc is $30 more than the Strikefire. (yes I'm sure BF sales are soon) But in general is the $30 more for the Sparc due to better features or is just a size/weight thing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,871 Posted November 20, 2013 Smaller dot - 2MOA vs 4MOA. I like the Sparc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
checko 180 Posted November 20, 2013 Smaller dot - 2MOA vs 4MOA. I like the Sparc. Agreed. Size, weight, dot are positives that I prefer. Drawback is a kinda uncommon battery and I'm not a huge fan of where the power button is located. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,871 Posted November 20, 2013 I'm not a huge fan of where the power button is located. It's the same place as on the Strikefire. I'm ok with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
checko 180 Posted November 20, 2013 It's the same place as on the Strikefire. I'm ok with it. I don't have the strikefire but I was comparing to the other rds's Ive had. Ive had the sight turn on a couple times in my range bag and once had the rubber control panel ripped off. They fixed it no questions asked but still kinda sucked.

rightisright 3 Posted November 20, 2013 FWIW, I have all three and I think this one is the best buy: http://www.amazon.com/LUCID-HD7-Red-Dot-Sight/dp/B004BDLJX4/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1384984806&sr=8-6&keywords=sparc ETA: My Lucid is a Gen II. The newer one I linked is supposedly improved in a few areas. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,871 Posted November 20, 2013 Lucid is lower 1/3 co-witness. I like full co-witness. SPARC does both. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
