    Night Vision MX-11769 Elbit troubleshooting tips?

    I did put the suspect tube into the known working housing. No dice unfortunately. Does anyone have a guide for replacing the PSU? Can't seem to find anything online.

    Night Vision MX-11769 Elbit troubleshooting tips?

    Turned on a WP Elbit PVS 14 today and the tube didn't turn on. I tested by turning on the IR illum and the red IR indictor came on. Changed out the battery anyways and still no luck. Tore the unit apart and tested the housing with another tube and it worked just fine. Applied power directly to...

    Headshot....Argument for a LPVO???......real life example....

    I think a better argument against a scope is that scopes break more often than RDS + magnifier Reliability aside they both punch the 25m-300m ticket just fine, with RDS arguably having slight advantage at 25m and in Folks that cite 3 gun shooters using razors as scope > rds+mag always forget...

    Hunting & Fishing Hunting trip reunion/bachelor party recommendation

    A buddy from my old platoon is getting married and a bunch of us are trying to get together around memorial day to shoot some pigs. We're super flexible about location since most of us will be flying in anyways and are looking for recommendations on places to contact. I've emailed a few places...

    Rifle Scopes ATACR 4-16 for “SPR” or……

    The 4-16 ATACR is my favorite scope of all time and I can't say enough good things. Seems like others feel the same way so I'll leave you with what I don't like about it. The zero stop reset is a huge pain and requires a tiny tiny wrench you wouldn't ever use for anything else. I wish FOV was...

    3EIR Vulcan IR-V

    Man I want to get this thing but don't want to fork over 700 bucks today just to have the company go out of business with a 200 dollar fire sale and no warranty

    3EIR Vulcan IR-V

    Couldn't find anything via search. I'm settling that a modlite PL350 body with the Vulcan IR-V with IR aim/illum combo + an offset modlite will be the best civ day/night fighting set up. I've bought everything except for the Vulcan IR-V head... Does anyone know where the best price for the...

    Night Vision Air rifle issues with mk6 3-18, pvs27 or reapir

    Has anyone seen issues with either mk6, pvs27, or reap Ir's on an air rifle? I've heard air rifles are tough on optics and wanted to double check before I wreck 10k worth of glass. Thanks.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 43x MOS vs G19

    The spring for life thing is cool and I wouldn’t mind it but I was wearing them out so fast where I would have been playing musical springs once a month or so. I was shooting this gun a lot though, I really wanted to make it work. To SA’s credit, they gave me a set of springs so that I could...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 43x MOS vs G19

    They suck. I bought into the hype and got a Gucci 43x and 5 SA mags with 3 extendos. I've put thousands of rounds through the gun and the mags between practice and matches. The issue for me isn't the body, it's that the springs wear out SUPER fast. I don't know if they can't handle the heat...

    Night Vision Compact IR Laser/Illuminator

    Depending on how far you're trying to illuminate/shoot, the TLR VIR2 might be what you're looking for. It's kind of a piece of shit, but it's also cheap and it does do the things that it's supposed to do

    Night Vision ITAR questions

    Ah nice ok. You got any recommendations on any specific manufacturers or dealers to check out that I can buy and keep overseas to avoid ITARitis?

    Night Vision ITAR questions

    I've done some reading but wanted to hear some opinions. I'm traveling overseas and would like to enjoy some sceneries at night. I understand that I can't bring my gen 3 i2 NVG's overseas, and American made thermals. Can I bring riflescopes (NF or leupold), or overseas made thermal imagers...

    Anyone try a 400 meter zero?

    We do say the exact same things about the 25m and the 36yd zeros with red dots. It's a major shortcoming of the 25/300 zero and why it's falling out of popular usage. The only time it makes sense is with iron sights. You cannot say the same thing about the 50 and 100. You don't have this issue...

    Anyone try a 400 meter zero?

    What does the enemy expose to you when he fires from behind cover? Where do you aim when your target is in the prone?
