Need some advice from the guys who have used both.
Here’s my situation. I’m covered on NV and I have a thermal I can use as either weapon or helmet mounted. However I like to have backups so I’m going to get an additional thermal to use in case my primary goes down or I want to bring along a buddy.
I need the unit to be useful as both a scanner or weapon mounted so that it can fill multiple roles depending on what I need for the day/night.
I’m trying to decide between the Hogster 25 or the Hogster C clip on. I like the idea of the clip on being more compact and I could use it with my daytime rifles but I’ve also heard a lot people say it’s a small FOV and not as good as a dedicated.
The 25 is cheaper but will require me to set up some type of offset red dot on a rifle as well because most of my hunts start in the day and then go for several hours at night.
What pros/cons have you guys seen that would lean it one way vs the other?
I am also going to sell my pulsar trail to fund this because it’s too big for use as a scanner IMO so the budget will have to be similar ($3kish).
