    Thermal clip-on for 4x ACOG: VooDoo-M, N-Vision Halo-C, Excelitas Dragon C12-XR, or something else?

    So, the company that many feel makes the best core and in the US is throwing in the towel. Anyone know why?

    Night Vision PVS-10 Value

    I know one sold on ebay not long ago and it went dirt cheap. I think it was like $2k + or - Willis Optics prices are ridiculous and always have been ridiculous.

    Unity CTM on a BAE UTM

    Why not just stick with the dovetail already on the UTM and use the Wilcox FTS mount?

    Unity CTM on a BAE UTM

    The Wilcox Dovetail mounts are different for the UTM and Skeet. So, the Unity CTM mounting holes for the Skeet version will not line up with the UTM holes. With this said perhaps someone smarter than me could tell you if someone could make a plate that would allow the two to interface although...

    Night Vision Nocpix clip on

    Not that I have seen here. I was just on IRAY USA website and every product from NOCPIX is out of stock, some products announced in the beginning of the year never materialized I guess due to import restrictions etc. So curious as to how they are going to make this happen.

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    Evolution 9 I have followed your posts for years and you make excellent points and out of experience. One of the problems when we talk about the OASYS UTM specifically is that it was marketed as a "military style (real) clip on that has collimation", but it was not really true, but most people...

    I guess we will have to take your word for it as that vid did nothing to show the POA/POI. ;)

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    Cannot speak to the LWTS or the UTMX but my UTM made a great handheld scanner and that was it. Dig in the archives for what others have said about actual ownership of the UTM and UTMX. As I recall the general consensus was that the Wilcox FTS mount which is very expensive did not give...

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    A budget of $3-4k and he might up it a little to $5-6k. N-Visions CO would be approximately 80% more than his max with tax. No other American made company is going to come near it.

    Night Vision Looking to purchase first thermal clip on

    If you are considering a used unit and are ok with an older unit that has a 320 core perhaps a used FLIR T-50 Clip On. Shame FLIR got out of the civilian market and did not upgrade them to a 640 core. My UTM was not collimated. Some have reported being able to do so. If I recall correctly, it...

    Night Vision Bare minimum Thermal scope and mono recommendation

    Antiquated tool? One of the most prolific yote hunters on the board places a greater emphasis on the monocular than on the scope.

    Night Vision Helmet Mounted Dual Thermals

    Perhaps the Horta will chime in as he has run dual SKEET IRX's. If memory serves me correct he was wearing them in a side by side when he crashed into a ditch and almost drown. Not sure if the crash was caused by lack of depth perception or if he is just a bad driver.

    Night Vision ? About adding a piece of pic rail to a Unity Tactical CMT mount

    Curious if anyone who has one of these mounts or is familiar with them thinks that a piece of pic rail could be adapted so it could be bolted into its existing mounting holes. Potentially looking to add another device that uses a QD pic mount to it so I can flip that device to the side. Sorry...
