    Night Vision ATN Thor 336

    Has anybody compared the Thor 336 to the Thor 320? I've viewed through a 640 3x, 320 2x, and 320 1x in the field. The 320 2x has enough detection range for me and I like the wide field-of-view. But the factory specs make the 336 1.5x seem better for the money. Also, the price...

    Night Vision Class 1 IR Filter?

    Any suggestions for a filter to dim the bloom on my LDI ITAL Class 1 IR laser? 35mm undeveloped film is too dark. 35mm negative is too bright. Two pieces of negative is a little too bright and the dot is distorted.

    I'm wanting a QD 5.56 silencer that will have a little less noise and flash than my Tornado Stubby/Delta P Brevis 7.62 silencer on a 16" AR. I like the length and weight of the Mini-4. Does anybody know how it will compare to the Brevis 7.62? Any other recommendations?

    Rifle Scopes SS 10x42 turret knobs working loose

    The set screws holding the turret knobs on my 2-month old SWFA SS 10x42 scope are loosening from recoil. My first thought is to use medium-strength loc-tite on the screws. Is there any problem with that, or does anybody have a better solution (aside from buying a USO 10x ?

    Savage/Stevens .223 and AI Magazine

    I finally got an AI .223 magazine for my Stevens 200, .223 in a McRee stock. The bolt would not come back far enough to pick up a round from the mag. The solution was to replace the front baffle on the bolt with a .308 front baffle, which lets the bolt come back further. I would think that...
