Someone give me a reality check here. I noticed recently that looking through my lpvo I was seeing double images with both eyes open. I tried to get a pic and you can see the shift in image when it transitions into the scope. Is this normal or something wrong here? I don’t recall having this...

I didn’t see a recent trailcam pic thread so I’m just gonna leave this right here and let you decide…. 😂

I picked up a Sionyx digital nv device in a trade to let my kids use but it needs some IR light in really dark conditions. What’s a good IR flood that can be used on a helmet for navigating? I’ve got a few here but they are all way more spot than flood.

Saw what appears to be a great price on a non-illum XTRIII 3-18. Thinking about using this on a hunting rig but a little concerned the reticle may be too thin at low mag during low light. It’s the SCR Mil reticle Anyone with experience able to provide some perspective?

I’m thinking of swapping to a low mass setup in my competition rifle. This is my run & gun setup so it needs to be reliable even if it gets wet/dirty and it needs to provide a notable difference in recoil mitigation for fast follow up shots. 2 questions for you guys who have experience in...

Anyone know of a QD mount replacement for the Steiner S35? I’m thinking about grabbing one as a backup but want to easily swap between scanner/scope.

Was on a hunt last night and had my thermal hooked to an external pack (no internal batteries in it). Fired a shot and the thermal shut off. I immediately thought I must have a loose cord but everything was still plugged in tight. Curious if anyone else has had this and if recoil could...

Need opinions from guys who have used both. I’ve got a rhino II with the dovetail adapter that I’ve been using for years and it works pretty well. I’m in need of a 2nd mount and debating on getting a G24 for the extra for/aft adjustment. The only knock I have on the rhino is that even when...

There are random discussions about hog hunting but no official thread so I propose we start one. This can be the place to post your kills, questions, advice, gear, etc. I’ll kick it off with a few shots from kills over the past couple months. We don’t have huge populations of them here but...

Edited to also include Iray, specifically the Rico line of scopes. Don’t hear much about them here but saw they have a 5 year warranty and pretty good reviews. Would also like to get some feedback from folks who have used the rattler 640 scopes. I ran across these while researching a new tws...

I’m going to build out a G17 that I can use for competitions. I’ve got a Zev slide on the way cut for a red dot and a new barrel. Where I’m not finding a ton of info is what internals provide the best bang for the buck? The comps I’ll be running this in are run and guns so I need to keep it...

Tried googling this but without much luck. Local person is selling a Dbal A3 but I noticed the adjustments near the illuminator are different than the ones for the lasers. And no diffuser on the illuminator, just a cap. Can anyone help identify if this is a fake or an older version, etc...

Need some advice from the guys who have used both. Here’s my situation. I’m covered on NV and I have a thermal I can use as either weapon or helmet mounted. However I like to have backups so I’m going to get an additional thermal to use in case my primary goes down or I want to bring along a...

Is it possible to burn an image into a thermal similar to a NV device? I am wanting to mount an illuminator/laser on my top rail but even with a riser I can still barely see it in the bottom of my thermal image. Not sure if it would be bad to have that image in the same spot anytime the...

What are some good resources to learn how to coyote call with an e-caller. I’m new to coyote hunting and have no idea what sounds to play, for how long, more effective strategies for various seasons, etc. I tried some googling but saw all kinds of conflicting info. we can finally start...

Who makes the most solid riser for an AR? I saw the Unity Tactical version but are there any others to throw in the mix? I need to raise the height on a thermal so cantilevers/rings aren’t possible.

So I’ve been struggling for a while trying to decide how to upgrade my night game. Currently I run a PVS14, handheld scanner and a weapon mounted thermal. I mainly hog hunt at night and I used the scanner all year around for various tasks. I also drive a UTV at night with the 14 and my AO is...

Hey guys, I was mounting a scope last night with Seekins rings and one of the clamp screws at the base broke off when torquing it down. I had the wrench set to 55in/lbs. I could tell something wasn’t right because it was turning but not feeling tighter and was taking too long to reach the...

Ok... I have waffled back and forth on this for a while and need some advice. I’ve got a pulsar scanner and a pulsar scope which works pretty well for me. However, I’m intrigued about going with a helmet mounted thermal like the NOX. Due to budget I’d have to sell both the scanner and...

Anyone got info on how often they release Sick Steve’s on the site? I’d like a shrike but $480 seems like a lot. I’d be stoked to get a Sick Steve.
