bishop414 Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Bumping for my own good, to Mark or anyone else, Have you heard any news on this new reticle moving ahead and what we might expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 It is coming, hope to have a look soon. Timeframe for sales looks to be early 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Can't wait to see the new one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jobob Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 I have one and like it. But the stadia lines are pretty hard to see. It's designed to be used with a multiplier, which I have no plans to use. Will Burris be able to upgrade older sights to a new reticle design!

I think he means he has the first version and wants to know if Burris will be able to retrofit it to the new design once it's out.

NoKimberDave Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Anyone hear any news of new reticles yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 The new reticle can not be put into one of the Gen 1 AR1X optics. Availability if everything goes as planned in production and QC won't be until about the end of the second quarter. I know that is not great news for those waiting. We hope to be able to get an engineering sample soon and, if allowed, will try to get images of the reticle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishop414 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Mark I would be happy to take one for the team and demo a Gen 2 for testing purposes. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bentsight Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Went through all the promotions and delays in production/QC and bought a Gen 1 only to discover it didn't quite live up to the hype. Now we found out that the " new and improved " solutions can't be retrofit to the originals, guess I should have known better than to buy something made in china no matter who's brand name is on it...

But you can nearly get 2 for the price of a Prismatic, that would most likely not be possible if they where not made in a lower wage country.

Acespeedy Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Any word on when they are coming out. I picked up two sparc 2s in the meantime and one of them quit functioning after a magazine, starting to flash/blink and then wouldn't turn on anymore.
