    Night Vision FLIR one

    Mine arrived yesterday. Resolution is rough, but its fun to play with if you don't own anything better. I'm posting some examples: 1) Here's 2 guys at (at about 10 and 15 yards) entering the backyard between two garages, near total darkness. The resolution stinks.. it is very difficult to...

    Is the POF P308 G4 worth the extra thousand over Ruger SR-762?

    Back to the original question, The Gen4 POF P308 might not be worth the extra 1K over the Ruger SR 762, but A Gen3 POF is certainly better for less money. I own Ruger's piston 5.56 and it's reliable, a bit heavy and not necessarily accurate, so their 7.62 wouldn't be my first choice for a...

    Night Vision FLIR one

    I want to first say that I'm sorry, this has very little to do with snipers or precision shooting, but the geek in me can't help it... So how about this mod to make a ghetto fabulous but functional short distance thermal weapon sight rig for the Flir One: 1) Stabilize your rifle in a vise or...

    Night Vision FLIR one

    Mine's just shipped. On the up-side, if the Flir One turns out to be a complete stinker people are still shelling out up to $540 for them on eBay.

    Bipod & mounting advice for POF P308 with M-Rail

    "Hey Mincer, congrats on the new 308..." Nothing, huh? Since nobody's interested and I'm too excited about the new rifle to wait I'm just gonna wing it. I ordered an Atlas BT10-NC and a LaRue Mount last night. I was out of 'Dillo Dust anyway.

    Bipod & mounting advice for POF P308 with M-Rail

    Hello All, I have a new POF P308 with a 20" match barrel coming in the mail (I'm so excited!) and I wanted to get a bipod for her ASAP... I'm currently looking at Atlas or GG&G. Any POF users with the M-Rail out there have any bipod or mounting advice? Specifically, I wanted to know if I...

    Night Vision FLIR one

    I ordered mine today... agree, it's not going to work as a poor man's thermal weapon sight, but I can't wait to play with it! Of course I could use it for diagnostic tests at work too. It' s about time this technology was within reach. Hope this signals a trend where we'll be seeing the...

    Night Vision FLIR one

    I really want to getone to play with... I think the initial reviews (PC mag, etc) indicate that FLIR is not being up front with the resolution of the actual thermal image. It sounds like the resolution of the thermal image is extremely low and lacking in detail, but FLIR over-lays or combines...

    IL, WI, IN...shooting Long range in the MidWest, any Winnequah or Young's LR members?

    Hello all, I'm based in Chicago... as you may know, there are not a lot of good long range shooting options in the area. The facilities that are closer to my home (within 1.5hours) are either treading water to stay in business (recruiting tons of members and dropping lots of supplimental fees...
