    I’ve got 4 PVS-14’s, original military units. One is in excellent condition, but has an unfortunate laser burn in Zone 2. Single battery housing, perfect lenses, green ITT tube. Makes a nice loaner unit, and with a good tube would be like new. $1100

    The others are parts kits, the tubes are ugly.

    One single battery unit, nice condition, perfect lenses, complete parts kit. $800, I’ll send you the tube uninstalled, good for practice assembly, or testing other battery housings.

    One dual battery unit, good condition overall, ocular index ring is slipping but I should get that fixed. Glass is perfect though. Also delivered with a working though badly blemished tube. $500

    The last unit has a damaged battery housing, unrepairable, so it’s stripped for parts. Let me know what you need and we‘ll come up with a price.

    I’ve got two more dead units coming in, unknown problem but visually excellent, so it may just be a bad contact or a dead tube. I’ll update this post when they arrive.

    This is the tube with the burn spot. I've also got one where someone cleverly set it up behind an illuminated reticle, probably all night and has a perfect mil reticle burned in. If you could find a way to move the 14 around on the mount it would be a weapon sight :p

    The right hand unit is the one with the good, but laser marked tube. The left hand sets are complete parts kits, fully tested and in excellent functional condition, minor external cosmetic marks. The one ocular problem has been repaired, new pin to lock the index plate. Cleaned and dipoter correctly timed to the index.

    I failed to get the camera mount aligned, but the reticle is perfect square to the weapon mount interface (duh). Otherwise nice tube.

    Man that is awesome, that thing with a 3X magnifier is a ready made pig smoker if you could find a way to zero it. Maybe a set of old school windage adjustable leupold bases. Would work well for spotter use too. GLWS!

    I might put it on the back of my Pentax spotter and see if I can get it to the right value for mils, could be a neat night spotter system, I always have trouble seeing the Leupold reticle even with a clipon. SFP, but it might work out.
