 well, where is the damn RED DOT? September 1, 2010
The Hunter (RUSH VALLEY, UTAH, US)
Received this thru mail today, nice looking and all, but i dont see NO RED DOT, as advertised! Also i know the quality of these scopes, this aint my first Barska! is why i bought this one!
 Nice scope for the money but... August 7, 2010
Richard Ciccone (Rochester, NY, US)
Nice scope for the money but returned it to purchase a Nikon with a mil-dot reticle. If you do not require mil-dot and want to be able to see what your hitting out at 100 yards with say an AR15, then this scope will do that.
Review after a month June 9, 2010
likethesaiga
Buyer Background: I am new to the gun world. 7 months new at time of this purchase with about 3,000 rounds fire in different calibers. Target shooting is lots of fun. First scope owned was a retail store $55.00, 3-9x32 for a 10/22 purchased four months before this Barska. Really enjoy the scope on the .22. Desired a larger more powerful scope for a Saiga AK 7.62X39 to be able to see further down range. The reviews before purchase were promising to me so I went with this scope. Because I appreciate those who take the time to do indepth reviews I thought I would pay it forward with this review to help future buyers.
Delivery: I got the free shipping from Amazon and it took about 10 days. I little long but it was free.
First Impression: It is big. Looked through it out my office window and I thought WOW. All I knew at this point was the scope on my .22 and this was a few steps up in magnification. Although the appearance is nice, it does look a little simple or cheap compared to the $500+ scopes out there.
The Mount: I went with a UTG 5th Gen. quick release mount since my Saiga has the mount "slot" on the left (opposite of the slide). It wraps over the dust cover sitting a little high which is perfect for the big 50mm front lens. This helped to not need taller mounts. Look for my review in the mount itself for more info..coming soon. Seems to be to big and heavy to withstand the recoil of my Saiga, we will see.
Appearance: My Saiga is stock (live in CA, bummer) but the mount and scope makes it look a lot more serious. Check out the pictures.
Weight: Probably added another 3 lbs. from scope and mount.
Sighting: I used a bore laser to sight it in at home up to 25 yrds. Took it to the range and sighted it 50 yrds, it took some patience because it was a bright day and I had a hard time seen the laser dot. I finalized the sighting at 50 with about 20 rounds (like I said I am new at this).
Field Test: After sighting it in I fired another 40 rounds and ended my field test on this peace on day one...switch firearms. First day was windy and a little frustrating. Went back three days later with the 10/22 and the Saiga both scoped. I had targets at 50 and 100 yrds and went to work. At 100 yrds I used the Barska scope to find where the .22 landed on paper, my eyesight also is not the best but with this scope, no need for a spotting scope. You can see .22 holes very clearly at 100 yrds. Just to be clear, I would fire the 10/22, put it down and grab the Saiga to look through the Barska scope.
My second day was perfect for sighting in and practicing with the Saiga. The air was very calm, I don't think the air was moving at all. I put a bunch of targets at 100 yrds and hit them consistently. Since my Barska scope was sighted at 50 yrds I had to aim about 4 inches lower to hit a bulls eye which I did a few times. Here is my ammo count so far on the Saiga. Day one = 40, Day two = 20, took off scope with quick release mount and slid it back on to test for accuracy after unmount/remount. Still centered, maybe 1/2 inch off at 50 yrds but it could have been me. Fired another 20, removed scope and mount again, remounted and fired another 5 and still good to go. Total shots fired: 85. I removed the mount in order to know if I will be centered after cleanings. Will test soon at 150, 200, 250 and 300 yrds.
Scope Clarity: Blurry after about 17 power. I am satisfied with clarity up to 17. The 50mm lens is incredible. It comes with handy lens covers.
Price: I left my price comments towards the end because well...had I paid $1 and had it not worked, I would have overpaid. This is not the case though, It works fine so far it handles the recoil of an AK well (just hold the rifle tight). I priced others and I am very happy with it and for under $61 this is awesome. I am planning to hunt with this during the next deer season.
Other: I can't help you with the MOA, wind knobs, and all that. I do not know the terminology yet. What I do know is you can poke an eye out at a 100 yards (the eye of the game you are hunting that is) with this scope and an AK.
Barska Varmint Target Dot Rifle Scope June 6, 2010
AlamoZ (Texas)
I bought this scope for my Savage 10FP in 308 Win two years ago. I have not shot the rifle until this weekend. I was pleasantly surprised that the $50.00 scope held together. I am not an rifle expert at all. I'm a very casual shooter and I managed to zero this scope in 20 shots. The distance I was shooting was 50 yards. All 20 shots went into the letter size paper target. Twisting the turrets was straight forward and easy. I know the price on this scope went up from two years ago, but this is still an excellent value for the size (50MM!) and features on this scope. I used this scope as a spotting scope when I was shooting my .22 lr rifles. You could see very clearly on this scope. I can't wait to try it out on longer distances, 100 yds or more. I highly recommend it! Thank you Amazon for a great product!
Decent Scope, Cheap Price January 21, 2010
Christopher Alan Andrews (Mooresville, IN)
I have not been able to get to the range yet to try it out on my 10/22. I have, however, examined it closely and looked through it through the full range of magnification. It is clear throughout. The materials quality is not quite that of my more expensive scopes, but it is sufficient. The adjustments are crisp and distinct. This scope was recommended by a custom builder of 10/22 rifles who installs them on the ones that he sells.
