Well, to mix it up a bit:
How about:
$
2.000 ▪ Night vision goggles (head mounted, Gen. 2): Bering Optics PVS-7BE
To look through a:
$160 ▪ Leupold Freedom Red Dot RDS, with exposed elevation turret
Mounted on a:
$1.200 ▪ Huben GK1 pistol
(steve-I and other handgun purists, no offense)
Hushed with a:
$100 ▪ Custom silencer designed by subscriber, printed by one of his trusted 3D printer crew members

Ooops!! I'm only half way there.....
Don't judge me.
Didn't even get to $4.000 of the required $6.000.
And I already have the RDS red dot. Bought in eager anticipation before the pistol was even on the market. How is that for
commitment?!
(Or shopping addiction, or rabbit hole accident, or plain and simple stupidity, whatever you like.)
Please, don't judge me for not getting up to $6K.
I could try again to get up to the required dollar amount.
But I really like the above setup to go
rat shooting in the local chicken farms.... Shooting gallery style....

PS: Upon second thoughts, and some careful self-critical introspection, and discussing this purchase with my wife — I feel like $3.500 is a wise investment and
an appropriate amount to spend on somebody else's rats and the shooting thereof.
(OK, I fibbed on the discussion with my wife. She'd send me right back to the psych ward.)
