    Night Vision Rechargeable battery question

    I’ll check voltage tomorrow. Only charger I have is using the GPS. That could be a problem too. I’ve had this GPS for about 4 years now. I’m not disappointed in the battery life. Just checking for better options. Seems like NiMH is the way to go. But maybe using AA with external charger.

    Night Vision Rechargeable battery question

    Not a night vision specific question, but I know you guys use a lot of batteries in cold conditions. So you probably have some good insight. I've got a Garmin GPS that uses this battery pack: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/116480 Mine won't charge anymore. Ultimately, it's just two AA...

    Hunting & Fishing Need some expertise on hunting pants/bibs

    I see how the fleece or hoodie can work. But I’m really looking for a waterproof outer shell. Preferably something that won’t get caught up in briars and pickers. Having a soggy outer layer on a rainy day isn’t very appealing. Seems like 10 years ago everyone had a lot of options in blaze and...

    Hunting & Fishing Need some expertise on hunting pants/bibs

    I'm in a similar situation - hunt NE PA and upstate NY. Have Cabela's bibs/jacket. Very warm when sitting, but too heavy to walk and too bulky to stuff into pack when walking. But - I end up hunting state lands more than I'd like. The setup I have now is blaze/camo, which I like. Anyone who...

    I was 2 years old.... Dad just came home from being stationed in Germany. To everyone who served during that time period- Thank you! I couldn’t say it then, but I can say it now.

    Night Vision Optics with PVS14 question

    Correct- head mounted only, not mounting the PVS14 to the carbine. I’ve got a PVS30 for use on other rifles for long distance. So for night use just look over/around the optic and aim with laser? Thanks

    Night Vision Optics with PVS14 question

    I'm in the process of putting together a carbine focused on night use. I'll be using this with head mounted PVS14s. I'll have a IR laser and illuminator on it. Illuminator can be switched to white light, also. Scope questions- I had seen a few recommendations here for the Primary Arms...

    Leupold Mark 4 TMR Spotters — 12-40 vs 20-60?

    OP - this is the second post you’ve copied word for word. What’s up with that? https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/threads/leupold-mark-4-tmr-spotters-%E2%80%94-12-40-vs-20-60.7031615/

    Geissele Gas Gun Challenge (Eastern Pennsylvania) 2020 Match Schedule

    I’ll be there. These are great matches for new competitors. Almost everyone is helpful and willing to loan out bags or whatever for a stage. @357Max bring the gun you shoot best in positions other than bench or prone. The guns accuracy is not necessarily as important as the combined...

    team comm's.... what are the thoughts on a 6 person team comm set?

    I can’t find that name anywhere. Is it a brand or a store name?

    team comm's.... what are the thoughts on a 6 person team comm set?

    I’m aware of all the rules. For where we plan to use these for hunting, I don’t think anyone else is going to pick up our signal. But you never know who is listening where. I’m also thinking about taking the HAM test. I don’t see where I would use it just to talk to people I don’t know far...

    team comm's.... what are the thoughts on a 6 person team comm set?

    We ended up getting 6 used Icom F3101d radios used. Going to use them on MURS frequencies. I’d like to try different antennas to see if we can get better range out of them. Any recommendations for use on those frequencies? Also, I’m lost on how to spec out the right parts for earbuds and...

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    The TATM is way too small. It falls through the hole in the shroud. It looks like the TATM is designed to work with a different Norotos shroud that has the pushbutton release on the shroud rather than the plate. Thanks.

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    That's not the one I got, just the first one that came up in a search. I think I paid $20 with shipping. It appears the TATM is made for this shroud: http://www.norotos.com/shop/prodView.asp?idproduct=26 So it's not loose like bad tolerance, what I have is about 30% smaller than the shroud...

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    @WhereNow&How Alright, this is getting a little embarrassing.... I thought I was taking a short cut and bought a new mount rather than just the dovetail adapter. Seemed easier. But, no. I bought one of these...

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    LOL. Google and I have a love/hate relationship. Sometimes it gives me what I’m looking for on the first search. Other times I find myself 12 hours in thinking “this search string will work “... Thanks for the link and video! Exactly what I was looking for. My plan here is that I can run...

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    One more question. I’ve got a Rhino 2 with a bayonet socket. Is there a kit to convert that to a dovetail socket? And if so, what is it called? My searching didn’t find any thing useful. Or am I better off just getting a complete mount with the dovetail socket? The pictures look a bit...

    Night Vision Slowly building a nv set up advice

    Sorry to dig up an old post, but I want to confirm some things here. I’ve got a nightcap with a Rhino 2 mount and using a j-arm for a single PVS-14. I’m about to get a second PVS-14. My plan is to get a Mod Armory light weight bridge. To do that, I think I need a PVS15/18 dovetail adapter...
