Night Vision

[KevDen2005]

I recently picked up a night vision monocular from Big 5. It is a famous trails monocular with IR capabilities. It's no PVS 14's but still pretty good considering the price. It was 179 on sale until sunday, regularly $400. Thought I would share that since I thought it was a pretty good deal.

I have already used it at work and think they work pretty good.

I need to pick one of those up. Something is better than nothing but I do have something.

Not at all. As NV scopes go it is a lightweight. I do have to put it on the scale but a WAG says 2lbs.

wow, not nearly as bad as I thought. just the size of that thing makes it appear to be heavy

That one was there too, but this Famous Trails one was $179, through tomorrow. I am sure they will have other sales and I didn't even think about searching for one on Ebay, but I thought the deal was pretty good and I am pretty satisfied with it thus far.

I am looking into this one for a few hundred more. Has anyone had any experience with this unit?

Just to throw this out there, the model I bought is now $159 at Big five. Still works fine and I use it almost every night I work, I am pretty rough on it and it still going strong after nearly a month
