    Rifle Scopes LPVO Mounting Question...

    I ran this scope for a while on my 3 gun rifle and it is excellent. It has one of the longest eye reliefs of all the LPVOs at 101mm and I found the best position for it was as far forward as the mount would allow it. When I did this I never had issues with scope shadow in any position. This does...

    Night Vision China Coti

    I’m from California, it drops below 50deg and I’m cold.

    Night Vision China Coti

    COTI vs ECOTI vs Jerry-C Nick will have his full review up soon, and check out his Instagram/YouTube for more videos. In the meantime here are the key takeaways: 1) The COTI is a good entry level option for fusion tech. We could detect cows >300y away. 2) The increased 30deg FOV of the...

    Night Vision China Coti

    I currently have a COTI and am waiting on an ECOTI (first batch so hopefully this month) and I got to play with the Jerry C the other night. First impression is that it is pretty capable. Besides having a wider FOV and more resolution I really noticed the improvement in contrast. For example...

    Sony Mirrorless Cameras

    I was in the same boat about a year ago and picked the A7iii as I wanted the bigger pixels for better low light. The images are already huge so I am glad I didn’t go for more MP. I paired it with a F4/24-105 G lens which has been very versatile and takes great pictures. I also have a prime...

    Rifle Scopes SB Short Dot Dual CC 1-8 red dot problem

    I was the one who mentioned it in the other thread as I noticed it right away. Last week I used it in a carbine class for the first time and after the first day I switched to my backup gun with a Kahles K16i. The dot dimming is incredibly distracting under constant fire and unique shooting...

    Night Vision MP5 - IR laser setup?

    I have tried a lot of different setups using a DBAL A3, DBAL-PL, Atpial, MAWL etc and none of them are ideal, especially if you are trying to get a white light on there as well. My biggest issue is with the switchology, you just start running out of space. And putting remote switches all over at...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    Yep, can definitely still see red within the scope shadow where mine is no longer illuminated. Does your dot ever go clear as it reaches the edge of the scope? I'll probably reach out to S&B and see what they say.

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    Air quality index was only 70 today, so I was able to go outside and take some videos as well. I compared the Dual CC to a Razor Gen 3 and Razor Gen 2 and found some interesting observations. As a note all scopes were tested at 1x and max brightness and the sun was starting to come down at my...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    Unfortunately that is what the image looks like. It isn't nearly as big as on the Gen3, so you see a lot of the scope housing. On paper they both have the same FOV at 1x, but I am not seeing that. I wasn't perfect on lining up the front of the objective lens between these two images and I was...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    The dot is always red, just dims significantly. If we have any sunny days, I’ll try to get a video with a bright background.

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    I plan to use this as a tactical scope, so there are two main issues with that. 1) Speed - The faster you can find the red dot the better. If it isn’t max brightness right away it can get washed out by a bright background. It is also better when the dot is always presented in the same way...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    Here is a quick video showing the issue. If this is worse then others then maybe I need to have S&B take a look at it.

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    I wonder what makes the S&B more susceptible to this issue. I have the Razor G3, G2, Swarovski and Kahles and any off axis dimming is barely perceivable. However the S&B dims ~30-40% (gross approximation, but significant) when you are barely off center. Seems like others have overcome this...

    Rifle Scopes S&B PMII Dual CC 1-8x24 and Vortex Razor Gen3 1-10x24

    I recently picked up a S&B dual CC and one surprise was that the brightness of the red dot drops off significantly when not directly behind the optic, but well within the eyebox. Did you experience this as well and do you know what mechanism is causing this? I don’t have a lot of time behind...

    What’s your opinion on Aero Precision Scope Mounts?

    Agree with everyone here. I have them on two 3gun rifles and one tactical rifle for 4 years now and zero issues to report. Scope leveling does take some patience, but then so does a Geissele 😅
