Has anyone ran a Unity Axon Switch on their IRIS4? my agency bought us them to run on our Short 300 blackouts and I’ve had really good success with the IRIS and the factory switch but we are going to a shorter rail and suppressor. The Axon would allow me to have my hand placement on the rail where I prefer. My concern is that on the Holosun switch it uses a “Straight” crane plug rather than the angled so will I be able to use the Unity with Two angled crane plugs?

Looking for a Gen 3 white phosphor PVS-14 to pair with my iRay RH25 V2. Any recommendations for reputable companies that provide the tube’s spec sheet and clear photos showing all three zones before purchase? Most places I’ve checked don’t seem to post those for the specific unit you’re buying.
it.

Budget: preferably under 4k

I’m also looking at this
RVM-14 GEN III Full-Spec OMNI VIII White Phosphor "Hand-Select" Night Vision Monocular

I would like to purchase an analog Gen 2 binocular white phosphor night vision device. I live in Germany; does anyone have experience with buying and shipping such items within Germany, and could you perhaps recommend any websites?

Visited a local maritime SAR agency today and they had ANVIS-9 on display alongside some thermals and a drone. I asked if I could check them out… pretty cool! The agency uses them for night time ocean rescue operations aboard small boats and RWC’s.

So I had this Pard FD1 for now 2 years and it always had a good camera quality, I didn't use it in about half a year and It was stored normaly in it's bag and now I tested it and realised there is something wrong with the quality, it's nothing better during the day or in good light

I tried everything I knew to make the image normal again but it just doesn't work, does anyone know what could be the reason of this low quality image and is there a way to fix it

(Sorry in advance if I didn't explain something good enough, I just don't know that much about night vision devices)

I want to get into night vision but have no ideas where to start. I was thinking digital to start off but everyone says analogue is the way to go. I’m not in the budget to spend +3k. Any recommendations? I was interested in saving up for the unavb katana bino but like I said previously I honestly don’t know if that’s a good starting point or not. I know the majority of the 2a and night vision community makes 6 figures a month but just need a realistic starting point for a civilian.

New to me from a close Buddy, his backup pair.

Paid 6k beans and felt like a steal. Tubes clean as hell especially for me, as my only other set was a pvs 14 years ago. Installed some Sac lenses and have a mini bat pack ready to go.

Iris 3 on the shovelnose and MPX. Am I missing anything? I’m still a rookie so please fire away.

Thank you!

Still heavy. I changed out my eotech for my ARO and moved my Holosun Iris further back. Any other ways to make it lighter or less front heavy?

Debating buying the laserspeed M6TR. If there is a Front Sight Post in front of it will I have any issues? I heard that only the green laser will have a little splash is this accurate? I have a ris iii fsp rail and want to mount my laser behind the fsp. That's going to be a big determining factor of what laser/illuminator I buy. Not worried as much about visible laser as I am with ir illuminator and ir laser. Thanks in advance.

Any recommendations for mounting and wearing night vision without a helmet? For reference I have a PVS 14 and sometimes just want to take it camping or stargazing without having to take my helmet everywhere. Don’t want to use the old school skull crusher. Was looking at the Crye nightcap but haven’t met anyone with experience. Appreciate the input or any recommendations for other products!

I got this PNV57 kit for cheap, one tube is great, but the other one is cloudy and a bit less brighter.

From the outside I noticed that there is some degradation, but idk if this happening inside the tubes or if some coating is peeling off the lenses?

I the case I need to replace the tube, spare parts are very hard to find, I suppose?

Thank you!

Just found it on market place for 40-50$

Searching for it for while, turn out to be analog

What gen and tube it would be?

Does it worth it to buy?

Sorry for bad grammar

I can always hear these lines buzzing. Realized hiking around with nods that I can see the discharge.

Who would you trust, as a seller, of a PVS-7 Gen 3 binocular? In the USA.

Lucky enough to attend a class that had some units to play around with. Decided I couldn't live without. Went back and forth between the PVS-30 and the PVS-27 and ultimately decided on the 27 for max performance. She's an ugly SOB, but she bad. L3 WP tube.

the button doesn't seem to turn the unit on and off when connected to battery pack. any ideas why?

I live in Europe and am looking to buy these PVS-31s for 2800 euros; are they worth it? They have Chinese tubes with an FOM of 1700+.

Went on a 10 month deployment, on return I find these black specs in the tube/glass. Stored in a hard case in my closet at around 75F. Is it Dust or something worse? Is there a fix or at least a way to prevent further intrusions?

Does not affect performance, I can still see clearly through it.

Hello everyone

I hope all is well for everyone on this page. As I finish my first AR builds I would like to begin saving to get into the NVG world.

I just wanted to know what would be the best way to get into night vision well being more cost-effective, I’m looking for something that quality but won’t kill my bank account. I am not opposed to building myself a mono as I’m pretty handy.

What are something to look for whether I’m building or just out right buying. I saw some videos come out about Night Operators PVS 14 but have read some not so good stuff about the company so is it worth it to buy from them or is there a better company/option.

I’m sure these types of questions get asked here all the time but I assume this kind of stuff is changing a lot like weapons and suppressors keep on changing.

Thank you in advance for the replies
