    Night Vision Is there such a thing as an LWIR rangefinder?

    I have SWIR covered but that does nothing for using a thermal. Is there such a thing as a thermal compatible LRF? Discuss. I did google. I did search. It wasn't super helpful.

    Optics U.S. Optics B-17 Gen2XR Reticle $1650

    As close to pristine condition as anything I've ever had mounted. U.S. Optics B-17, Gen2XR Reticle, fresh factory checkup. It's time for me to turn some of these long term safe residents into something I'll get more use out of. No ring marks I can make out. Glass is perfect. Works like a dream...

    Suppressors Can finally came in but now I have to wait 5 more months.

    That, my frenz, is an itty bitty damned .30cal rifle suppressor. It cost me all of $450 brand new and there was no tax stamp involved. The lack of an NFA stamp and the 5 month wait before I can try it out are both because it's in South Africa with many more of my belongings. Over there you can...

    SOLD Desert Tech SRS barrels

    DT Factory .300wm, 26in, factory brake, fired one box of 20 rounds of Federal Terminal Ascent 180gr. Comes with a box of 20 rounds of Federal Terminal Ascent 180gr. Bought it from another Hide member so I'd have a belted magnum of some sort on hand while waiting for my .338wm barrel to arrive...

    Back from Africa

    Went over to work out some details of my impending retirement to the dark continent. While I was there I had the opportunity to take a red lechwe. Normally one of these would be simply too expensive but a good friend hooked me up with a hunt at a price I could not afford to scoff at. Taken with...

    Night Vision Like new B.E. Meyers Kiji 3deg IR illuminator w/ Sure Fire DS-SR07 remote switch

    Bought this one for a rifle that I've since sold. Don't need two of them on 1 gun so this one goes up on the block. Has under 1hr of power on time, never stored with the battery in it. You can buy it with the factory push button tail cap or with the Sure Fire remote switch & tail cap. w/ Sure...

    Night Vision [SOLD] PVS-30 GP, Black body, with bag + optional 3deg Kiji w/ remote switch.

    Finally Fixed the First of Fortmeier's Four Fatal Flaws For Free Friday

    And the second one too! Yes, I'm practicing my alliteration on you. I'm allowed to because it's fun for kids of all ages. Also, FYI, I'm the world's worst photographer. I have no sense of aesthetic so my pictures always turn out blech. You may insult my picture taking skills at will. So what...

    Saudi Arabia decided to build the wall but not to keep people out.

    Apparently, and this is out of the box thinking of the highest order that I think we should investigate very seriously, they're building a wall for their people to reside in. This is how we deal with the southern border. A flashy new solar powered linear layout city 500m tall. The illegals won't...

    Night Vision A little bit silly, quite possibly just dumb idea but go with me here

    I had the idea that it might be really quite interesting and handy to be able to flip something like a PVS-30 clip-on NV to the side. I'm thinking of something kind of like red dot magnifiers but with a lock and latch sort of setup that one could adjust all of the lash out of. It might also be...

    Sig Sauer Vudu 10x30mm Image Stabilized Binoculars

    I got a set of these recently and was quite surprised. I had never thought of purchasing anything like it and, honestly, I didn't purchase these directly. I got them from D_TROS's charity raffle thingy. In any event, I don't think I ever really had a proper idea of how they worked or the...

    Holy bejeezus I miss being able to reload.

    Long story short, the wife went fucking nanners over the last couple years and we finally called it quits. I had to scramble to get a place to live while she went to live with her mom. Housing being nightmarishly expensive and me having to give a crazy woman half my money, the options for cost...

    New acronym for what is basically just stupidity - SH Nerds Unite

    NOTE: I am a professional computer nerd. I don't spend my day-to-day fixing this and restarting that. I design resilient, high performance, integrated infrastructures that do complicated things and then I build them. The monkeys that report to me (they're actually brilliant sysadmins and not...

    But, oh that Al Gore rhythm

    The tube of yous has decided that I need to paint my rifle and, apparently, it wants me to do a shit job of it. This is not going to happen because all of the rifles I was willing to paint with rattle can I already have done gone and painted. Still, I watched all of the videos on the topic that...

    Need assistance finding someone to repair a telescope occular lens.

    I have an antique German refracting telescope with an occular lens that took a whack and cracked. Parts for these scopes and replacements are totally unobtanium so I'm hoping to find a shop that could possibly custom make a lens to fit in it. Does anyone know of any custom optics shops? There...

    Cookie Cutter brake on a PRS gun.

    If you make it to the bottom, you're a pimp. Also, yes, my bench is a fuggin disaster. There's that Chode brake which caught my eye but it's still of the rearward pointing ports kind of brake that makes my skin crawl. They're so obnoxious to be around. Not just for the shooter but especially...

    Accessories FS: Folding stock adapters for buffer tube stocks.

    These were purchased to do T&E's on and are now surplus to my needs. These both use AR-15 buffer tube interfaces but will 100% not work on an AR-15 or AR-10 where the bolt carrier reciprocates at all into the buffer tube. UTG: SOLD (This is essentially free given the cost of shipping UPS)...

    Folding stock adapters for a comparo. Looking for every brand I can find.

    I'm in the middle of doing a big self-funded comparo of every folding stock adapter for rifles that use AR compatible buffer tubes. I'm hoping others can point me to examples I haven't found yet. So far I've got the following on my list (key is brand, order date, arrival date, raw points...
