Night vision - what are you using?

[KatoKevin454]

Wow, This thread is still going, last time I posted on this thread was in 2018, lots of new night vision units since then, my latest is the Arken Zulus 5x20 with LRF, works nice but you have to have your cell phone Bluetooth present to use the Ballistic Calculator.

I think the ATN has an add-on LRF that also gives you a red “aiming” point but I never bought that equipment or used it, so I don’t know if it requires and external device or how well it works. Obviously there has to be SOME database upload so it gives you a holdover for .177 pellets vs .223 or .308….I know most newer scopes can load multiple rifle profiles, so it sure would be nice if you could load detailed profile with your own confirmed ballistics and have the built-in LRF give you a solution without needing any external device. If that function isn’t available yet it should’t be far off.

The AGM lrf 640 model is serving me well. Buddy snapped a pic last night in the truck bed. Pvs14 with flir breach on the head and the 640 on my uragan 2. Nothing was moving so nothing got shot.

Pard 007s with Rusan adapter and DIY lense (from some broken cree torch) added to pard’s IR light to widen/soften it on level 1.
Really pleased with the results and great value for money

Oneleaf NV500 with a 50 mm lens, want 100 - 120 mm lens CUZ i aim small, and really even if there are copious of digital zoom on the 4K sensor, then you cant really go past 3-4 X of that on top of the optic range, but the damn thing will go to 13 X but then i can not see little stuff as it is lost in a minecraft / lego like blocky world.

Digital zoom must never be mentioned if i was the dictator in charge, do so and it is 25 lashes with the cat o nine tails on the square.

https://us.dntoptics.com/ I have a DNT Zulus 5-20x HD with range finder you won't find a better IR scope for the money and that go's for their thermal also.

Is an ordinary scope with a flashlight and a red filter also considered as night vision ? I like it much better compared to an ATN digital scope with IR. For ratting it works as a charm.

I chose cheapest I could find on AliExpress this one was about 250, I have another that was 60 but not the best, I mounted that on my Serpent Shotgun to record video . I have a THOR LT on my .25 Airspeed for my thermal needs.
