    Oh OpticsPlanet, how I've missed you

    Is social distancing/quarantine being enforced by PD/sheriff in your AO?

    Took the family out for a drive today. We're pretty rural Illinois folks. Not sure what was up but I've never seen so many State Police and County Sheriff's out before. I still have to go to work, so I'm out everyday anyway. What I saw today probably surpasses the amount of police i see in 3...

    First Thermal Scope for Hog Hunting

    Has ADM QD mount too. I regularly swap it between a 5.56 AR a Ruger 6.5 creedmoor and a Ruger 10-22. You can set 3 rifle zeroes. Never had an issue with it being off.

    First Thermal Scope for Hog Hunting

    Flir PTS PRO233. No bull shit, just a decent thermal scope. Under 200yds is its sweet spot. I opened bix, mounted and zeroed 1.5 years ago and haven't had any issues. I use mine 2-3 times a week. They can be had for just under $2k. But Flir has discontinued their thermal scope line so there's...

    Night Vision First Hunting Thermal

    Yea you dont "need" a scanner. But after a couple years of scanning with your rifle you'll be ready for one. Personally I'd say spend your money on a good thermal scanner and put a night vision scope on your AR. Or go big and go all thermal, but there will be nights the night vision is better...

    S%#ts getting weird in Illinois

    I'll be honest my kids 12,11,8 and 4 are getting pretty scared. Closing the schools really made it hard on them. My wife and I are preparing, but not letting it show to them that were both kinda like WTF. Luckily my wife stays home so no loss in finances from her.
