Bought the Barska 4x AR-15 carry handle mount scope in August. Finally got to the range last week (third week of October) to try it out and zero the scope. The scope will not hold zero with rounds landing +/-8" from the aim point. Not a mounting problem. Definitely a problem internal to the scope. Disappointed but not surprised given the cheap cost of the scope. Buyer beware.
Would recommend: No

Description says 1" tube it's actually a 34mm tube. Was planning to use this without the carry handle mount on a Mauser build. very unforgiving eye relief. magnification seems fine. for a retro style build this would likely work just fine.

Was going for a classy M16 looking build, and this scope definitely looks the part. The quality of the scope seems good, and it does appear to be waterproof and somewhat shock proof. This scope is made in China if that's a deal breaker to you, and it's fairly clear why as the material is good, but can be scuffed. If you're looking for a scope that looks good on the rifle for Larping around the house, definitely a must have. Also great for taking to the range when you have time to search for your reticle, otherwise if you're looking for quick acquisition with relatively good eye relief, this optic is not for you. With an A2 stock, you'll have to Crane your neck forward a decent amount to see the optic, and even then you get black circle overlap on the edges of your view. Reticle itself is great, but I may recommend the mil-dot version if you're doing distance greater than 100 yards.
Pros:
- Quality
- Cheap
- authentic
- LARP'ing
Would recommend: Yes

Great scope for the price. Glass is clean and clear. I purchased this to use on my A2 type AR15. My eyesight is diminishing and wanted something to help. It was at a deeply discounted price through Opticsplanet, which made the purchase even more satisfactory. If you are looking for an inexpensive scope that is specifically set up for an A2 receiver, then check it out. No problem reaching out to two hundred yard target plates.... Easy, simple installation. It sits up high on the fixed A2 handle, so a cheek riser on your stock will be helpful. You can still use your iron sights. Of course, Opticsplanet shipped in a timely fashion and the scope arrive in great shape.
Pros:
- value
- Quality
- fast shipping
