I'm agonizing over which path to take. As I understand it:
-PVS14 will allow me to perform tasks up close better in low light if there is enough ambient for my uncovered eye.
-RNVG will allow me more depth perception, but I question how, as binoculars never seemed superior really to a rifle scope, for that, to me.
-Both offer 40* FOV
-Both can be had with literally the same tube(s)
-The PVS14 is lighter
Whichever I get, will be WP L3 filmless
I plan to aim my weapon using a MAWL C1+. Otherwise, it wears an NX8 in a 1.70" mount, and modlite at 10:30 for daytime/white light use.
My intended uses for the NODS are: hiking, stargazing, run n gun, hunting (pest control), property surveillance and security.
My location is extremely rural, potentially with zero ambient light aside from what nature provides if I turn all of the lights off in my house.
Is there a compelling reason to spend the $5K more on RNVG's rather than in ammo/training/paying down a car/etc?
