It's interesting to see them next to each other like that.

Well,

If anyone has any of the other reticles, I'd love to get a hold of them.

I'd REALLY like to get an manual or basic details of how the israeli reticle is suppose to be used.

Here is the TVS-5 FO reticle:

Nice Pics GBMaryland! I just got a PVS-4 recently. Do you know where I can get instructions on how to change the reticles? The TM just says take it to higher unit maitenance, which I don't have.

See the hard part is that some folks can possibly get the original non-Army TM for the NVS 500/700 units. That will, appearanty, list all of the reticles made by (what is now) L3 optronics.

My suspicion is that those manuals are For Offical Use Only... and that means not for civilian, or especially, foreign use.

My understanding is that the reticles are burned right into a diode and it only takes a diode swap to update it.

I have 3 diodes, 2 marked for M14/M60 and 1 for 556. I don't have a PVS-4 to try them in, if someone is interested in them let me know and I"ll make you a killer deal on them. I'd rather that they go to a good home than just get lost in my junk piles.
