Sort of,
FYI;
Brownells is taking pre-orders for the new Vortex SPARC AR that was at the SHOT Show this year !
$199.99
I have already placed my pre-order.
At that price I figured WTH.
It takes AAA .
I like the idea of a common battery type.
But I really like the rubber "armored" cover with integrated nesting lens covers & built in height adjustable base / mount.
Optical Features
Fully Multi-Coated Multiple anti-reflective coatings on all air-to-glass surfaces increase light transmission.
Bright Red Dot Display is highly visible in daylight.
Brightness Settings Provides 10 variable illumination settings-the lowest two settings are night-vision compatible.
Construction Features
Nitrogen Gas Nitrogen gas purging with o-rings-seals delivers fogproof, waterproof performance.
Single-Piece Chassis Compact and lightweight.
Waterproof O-ring seals prevent moisture, dust and debris from penetrating for reliable performance in all environments.
Shockproof Rugged construction withstands recoil and impact.
Hard Anodized Finish Highly durable low-glare matte finish.
Operating Temperature Rated from -4 degrees to +158 degrees Fahrenheit.
Convenience Features
Multi-Height Mount System Includes a spacer shim that can be utilized to provide two different mounting heights: lower 1/3 co-witness (40 mm) & absolute co-witness (37 mm).
Unlimited Eye Relief Non-critical eye relief for rapid target acquisition.
Battery Life 12-hour auto-shutdown feature maximizes battery life. Typical battery life is 300 hours at maximum brightness and 5,000 hours at minimum brightness setting.
