Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!
And that 1 thing makes buying a used Gen1 more appealing... at least for me it was.- kombayotch

Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!
The Gen1 is really repeatable! Got back from vacation yesterday and finally got to try it. Two groups on my 223 boltgun at 100 with and without the C35. Same offset I set it to for my AR. Took it off, put it on the AR to bang some steel, then put it back on the boltgun. The image is...- kombayotch

Someone needs to import the Praezise-Jagen products! Even a screw knob would at least make the Annex picatinny mount QD. Or maybe this kind of lever: You can index them, they're like a small pod-loc.- kombayotch

The bayonet isn't just for convenience, it's providing a shouldering interface when it locks up to maintain angular alignment. Since they aren't removing the clamp part, it maintains planar alignment. This makes sense.- kombayotch

Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!
Referencing a pixel isn't going to give any indication of angular alignment since the screen is at the back near at the mounting point. I think the only way to get consistent angular alignment is to have the mount shoulder on the objective bell squarely when the clamp is tightened. Think of it...- kombayotch

Night Vision The Official: Steiner C35 Thermal Clip-on Review and User Thread!
When you install it, is the rifle oriented horizontally or vertically (muzzle to the sky)? It might be more repeatable if installed with the muzzle pointing towards the sky since the thermal won't be putting any torque on the mount. If there is an internal face on the mount, make sure it's...- kombayotch

Even if the screen on the back and the camera/lens on the front of the thermal were perfectly aligned, the thermal would also need to be colinear with the scope. It isn't just the up/down/left/right position that matters, it's the angle the thermal sits at. Non-repeatability with clamp mounts...- kombayotch

I found a used Gen1 and went for it. Blackhawk Armory claims to have new ones still. They're a drop ship outfit, so I was skeptical...- kombayotch

Given the mounting issues, would it be better to get a Gen1 over a Gen2 (assuming you could find one)?- kombayotch

Would probably be pretty easy to add a ring to an ADM or LaRue bipod mount. Even if it was made of steel, it wouldn't add much weight. The bottom part could be kept thin so that it could go under larger diameter scopes. Could take out any chance of play between the parts by gluing them...- kombayotch

DARQ Industries listed some yesterday and still lists them as in stock. Ordered one 28min. after he listed them, so hopefully I've secured one.- kombayotch
