    Night Vision Collimating dual pvs14

    Some points here need clarification... The PVS-14/7 COTI bracket can be installed either to the objective lock ring or to the objective lens assembly itself, and the PVS-14/7 bracket has a notch on both sides to allow it to be mounted either way, and it works perfectly fine in either...

    Night Vision E-Coti

    The photograph is pretty bad—night vision doesn’t really photograph all that well, nor does the COTI, the naked eye visual is much clearer and cleaner. Moreover, the setting that the photograph was taken doesn’t necessarily highlight what the COTI is most useful for, it was just what I was...

    Night Vision MAWL-C1+ or DBAL-A4?

    You may want to take a look at the MOD Lite if you want a longer throw. :?: I’m definitely onboard with “all the lumens,” but FWIW, 100+ yds with a white light doesn’t figure heavily in my applications, but again, the MOD Lite would definitely be worth a look if that’s what you’re looking...

    Night Vision E-Coti

    Best I could do for the moment, dogs in the backyard with AN/PAS-29A COTI and L3 UF WP tube. It was pretty bright tonight, and the COTI does not photograph very well, and the dogs didn’t really want to cooperate... Range is about 35 yards give or take, dog on the left is about 30lbs, and the...

    Night Vision MAWL-C1+ or DBAL-A4?

    Vampire light is going to wasted with a MAWL, at least weapon mounted. I do use a Vampire light helmet mounted. I would recommend either the M600DF or the newer 1,000 lumen M600U or 500 lumen M300C as a weapon mounted white light to go with the MAWL. ~Augee

    Night Vision TNV/PVS-14 Harris Gen3 PINNACLE

    FWIW, in my biased opinion, our warranty actually has fewer disclaimers than most--we just put the fine-print front and center, rather than trying to hide it at the bottom of the website or on an invoice or something. But the short version is this: Our warranty covers any manufacturing...

    Night Vision E-Coti

    I can get a photograph of the COTI (AN/PAS-29A) with L3 UF WP within the next couple of days. E-COTI might take me a little longer as I don't currently have one on hand. COTI is 320x240 / 30Hz, 20 deg. FOV, E-COTI is 640x480 / 60 Hz, 30 deg. FOV. ~Augee

    Night Vision new NV gear advice please

    For an entry level non-ballistic helmet, it's hard to go wrong with the Ops-Core Bump. Ops-Core/Gentex are doing a lot of exciting things with headborne systems, and having an authentic Ops-Core helmet will allow you to integrate with their accessories seamlessly without having to deal with the...

    Night Vision New With Pvs 14 questions....

    Looks like an ATN NVM-14 with an NAIT tube at first glance. Not quite a PVS-14, but a pretty decent for $500, people have paid a lot more for a lot worse. ~Augee

    Night Vision WMX200 (Non Integrated) Rotational Mount?

    The sleeve body variant is fairly uncommon, but they are out there. The WMX200 is a fairly outdated light in comparison to modern lights, but the soft flood IR designed to work ICW the ATPIAL’s targeting illuminator and the built-in double-tap constant logic are still pretty nice. ~Augee

    Night Vision Best pistol sights when running Night Vision monocular?

    @Will-1 I gotcha, I was tracking what you were saying—I just thought I’d clarify for the whole that IR illum doesn’t have to come from a weapon-mounted light, you can use alternative sources that circumvent some of the common criticisms of dual spectrum pistol lights. ~Augee

    Night Vision Best pistol sights when running Night Vision monocular?

    Using a helmet-mounted IR illuminator is a good alternative to running a VIS/IR WML on your pistol. While, as I noted earlier, there is no way to account for every single scenario--under many circumstances, if the ambient lighting is dark enough for your RDS to cause enough bloom to interfere...

    Night Vision Best pistol sights when running Night Vision monocular?

    1. IR illum 2. BUIS 3. You can still see through your NODs when the lights are on 4. In practice you often have a good sense of when you’re going to be NODs-down and when you’re going to transition to white light 5. Could you continue to posit increasingly unlikely scenarios until you...

    Night Vision Best pistol sights when running Night Vision monocular?

    Correct. Especially with a pistol-mounted RDS, a laser will be redundant and likely more trouble than its worth. ~Augee

    Night Vision Pvs 14 and Crye Nightcap

    For the NightCap I would recommend the Wilcox L4 G22E over the G11 or any other Force-To-Overcome (FTO) mount. Not only does the G22E have greater forward adjustment that is useful with the NightCap, but IMHO, push-button mounts simply play far better with the NightCap than FTO systems. Because...

    Night Vision Best pistol sights when running Night Vision monocular?

    BLUF: RDS with black sights is the way to go for pistol use under NVGs. Over the years, we have tried, trained with, and taught a variety of different equipment combinations and techniques, many of which worked to one extent or another, but none of which was ever wholly satisfactory compared...

    Night Vision DT vs ST

    Are you saying that you can’t see clearly inside of 100 yards when you focus your NVD? I’m not going to argue with what you’re saying you see, but focused to infinity, I have no problems seeing short range up to a few feet in front of me, and certainly well within 10-15m. Is it as sharp at all...

    Night Vision Anyone have a KAC Hi Rise mount I can borrow?

    I’m tracking now, yes, mounted offset to the optic, I would agree—I was thinking more in terms of a “conventionally” mounted offset sight off the receiver or handguard. ~Augee

    Night Vision Anyone have a KAC Hi Rise mount I can borrow?

    Most 45 degree mounts mount the optic even closer to the bore line/receiver than standard height sights, increasing, rather than decreasing the likelihood of hardware impedence, especially if you try to use your dominant eye with duals, as you’re now rotating your weapon to place the day optic...

    Night Vision Anyone have a KAC Hi Rise mount I can borrow?

    Use of passive sighting may require you to change your head positioning on your weapon a little bit, especially if you’re accustomed to “nose to charging handle” style shooting to avoid hardware impedence, but tall sights (using risers and/or tall mounts) makes it much easier for most...
