i am looking into an "entry level" NV scope and wanted to know if there are any out there that aren't giant hunks or crap for under or around $1000. Any recommendation?
You "might" find something for sale from someone that is hard up for cash but that's a looooooong shot. Save your cash and with $2000 you could buy something nice!!!! I was looking on another gun site that has an PVS-7 AG and it looked great. If I didn't have money saved for an CNVD I'd own it !!
I purchased an Armasight CO MR ID from nightvisionguys.com. I'm expecting delivery Tuesday and I'll report back on performance. I too was frustrated at the minimal info that could be found on kit that was useable under the 2K price point.
I just made a deal for one of these, assuming yours is the Gen 2+ for under 2K. Mine is a week out, would like to know what your experience is when you get it.

Yes, the ID tube will generally be Russian. They are good tubes as far as gen 2 goes, but if it were my money, I'd spend a little more and get the HD tube (French). They are really solid performers. That is not to say that the ID tube is bad, I just think the HD is well worth the extra money.
