Fine scope for a reasonable price - Barska 1x30 IR M16 Electro Sight AC10984 Rifle Scope Rifle scope

I use this scope on my S&W M&P 15-22 to save money shooting .22 LR instead of shooting my 5.56 ARs. Although availability of center fire is easing, it is still expensive. Great way to get trigger time for small investment. This scope performs exactly as I expected from an illuminated reticle 1 x 30mm instrument. There are 7 levels of red illumination for the "tactical" reticle (cross with a dot in the center). Once sighted in, the scope requires no further adjustment. Adjusting to zero is straightforward and trouble-free. The construction is robust and a plus is the fact that the mount is integral to the scope. Works perfectly on the OEM picatinny rails on my rifle. I do have other higher end scopes costing many times the price of this one. There are differences in features, but this scope holds its own. For my purposes, it is great. Light weight with black matte finish. Looks good and works well- form follows function.
