    Night Vision Specs on NV? I know it's not the end all be all, but.......

    Is the pvs-30 one of the refurbs or a new $10g unit. Do the refurbs have standard film tubes or thin film pinnacle tubes. I haven’t messed with one is why I ask. Any gen 3 is good in my book as long as it doesn’t have black spots in it. Can’t stand that shit. If I’m dropping thousands of...

    Night Vision Outside Diameter of PVS30 vs PVS22?

    I’m a little confused here, so people put ARDs on the front objective lens of pvs-30’s. I never thought of that. As far as large size flip caps over the normal 50mm scope type I’ve never came across any. The D-740 night scopes come with a front flip up cap. I believe the lens is in the 100mm...

    Oh yeah f#$*ing-A right I just did that!!!

    This thread, I just love it! A little envious. Makes me wish I had shitty neighbors to bond closer with my new siren. Spotlights? Timer? Turn it on for a few seconds everyday at high noon so the workers know when it’s time to break for lunch like the little town my in-laws live in. Kind of an...

    Vietnam Tiger Stripe in Cerakote

    Nice work! Now why is it I’m picturing what that would look like on some ARs or M40s.

    Range Report First Time out with Magnetospeed - Unexpected Results?

    Seems normal. Mirrors my observations using magnetospeeds and various factory ammo. Seen similar things posted other places on the inter webs. I’ve chronographed some brands of soft point hunting ammo that ran SD in the mid teens and ES in the 30’s. Next batch might be not so good or 100 fps...

    What is up with the “new badges” ?

    Those are all good points. I was thinking back to the root of Lowlight’s post about the px and folks taking advantage of his kindness. Those that get off on exploiting loopholes. If you lay out the benchmarks of the new loop holes they have to jump through, is that giving them the map of what...

    What is up with the “new badges” ?

    What are the benchmarks, asking for a friend. So he can get a jump gaming the new rules. Just thinking out loud so to speak, after reading Divers post. Not meaning anything personal by it.

    Has anyone learnt hypnosis ?

    I learnt hypnosis. It’s called read through the freaking Bear Pit today. Good grief. Think I’ll break the monotony and go outside to stare at the sky looking for suicidal pigeons or something.

    Has anyone here studied dowsing / witching ?

    Using dowsing/witching rods is like the Coriolus effect. You have to walk north or south for best results. Soak them in a glass of “Spin D” beforehand and they’ll be even more accurate.

    Night Vision NV pictures show em

    Rare bird. The last remaining pic of the pvs12 Aquila I once owned on a bushmaster varminter. Only wished it had variable gain control.

    Anyone else like watching hawks hunting ?

    Nice videos. Haven’t seen anything like that in a while in my area. Mostly they follow the farm machinery to catch the displaced rodents. A few months back a little red tail kind landed on my suppressor cover while sitting up in a deer tripod stand. Just heard wind and wings come up behind...

    Suppressors Silencerco BOGO

    Hell, if Silencerco has money problems they can make some revenue selling the discontinued Radius rangefinder again. Used ones sell like hot cakes on the Nightvision and thermal forums/groups. Any genius with half a brain for business could see that if they were remotely in touch with thier...

    PX Bullshit, Everyone is selling for themselves

    Lots of ideas already stated I agree with. I’ll add that 1 sale post a month seems like plenty. How much shit does a person have/need to sell anyway. A lot for some obviously. Maybe the gear queer whores just need to get a handle on their shit or peddle their junk elsewhere in the pawn shop or...

    Hide Newsletter good comms

    A little heads up every now and then seems good. I liked it. Nothing wrong with a State of the Snipers Hide message once in a while. On the other hand, some people just aren’t happy if they don’t have something daily to bitch about. Leave them in the dust and drive on. Let them be miserable...

    Impenetrable shooting berm?

    Only 20 acres! Not even worth it for shooting. I’d look elsewhere. Neighbors = problems. Get land “80-150 acres” in the middle of bfe that borders large multi thousand acre shitty looking brush sections where nobody wants to live.

    How truly helpless is the general population?

    Late night posts from old age piss schedule, addicted to tech, stress induced insomnia, or maybe just the only quiet time to think for yourself without everyone in the entire household needing you to help do shit for them non-fucking stop; it’s whatever passes the time I guess. Helpless people...

    Romanian PSL

    I don’t remember the website, but there use to be other scope mounts you could switch out that had weaver rails on top. Low or high to still use the irons. Easy to swap around optics if you didn’t want the original. Could keep a thermal or Nightvision on a separate mount. I didn’t care for...
