lksopener 105 Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Si I would like to take you up on your offer of trying out the unit and i can come to you or you can come up on our land. No worries either way. I am sceptical being an NS fan so would like to see a comparison. Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted March 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Brilliant mate, I would love you too come and have a look Lksopene especially with you being a fan of another unit. I was thinking about you the other day when driving from Anthoni's house as I saw the signs for Worksop and thought it was a shame i didn't have your mobile as we could of met for a coffee and chat buddy. I was just 7 miles from Worksop at that time . Please come though with a open and un-bias mind and post on here afterwards a true and accurate for what you witnessed buddy . Remember we are not looking here at the fixings etc as its a prototype, just the results and its potential as a air rifle NV hunting unit. Please bring your Nite Site too and we can do a side by side comparison for the final review if you have a recorder. If not the Nite- Hunter mini DVR may work with yours . If you could come to mine tonight (Sat 3rd March) for 1900 hrs you could join the other lads that are coming to have a look too before i have to do other things. If you cant make tonight for a hour then it will have to be the week after next (from Wed onwards) as as studying for a PRINCE2 and APMP management diploma. Ill PM you my mobile number now pal. I've got another 20 minutes left before i post up a clip that i filmed yesterday and very early this morning when it was very dark out side that you may find interesting pal. The clip will be ready at 1022 hrs which is when ill add it to my other post in this General section. I think a lot of lads will see the units potential after watching the short clip . Regards Si.

verminator 66 2 Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi Si looking at your videos looking good I now you say all these long videos of like the fox are on 10x scope and 10x cam any chance you can do it then zoom out so can see what its like on a normal mag say 6x plus would like to know how all this mag would work on your trajectory, as on like 6xmag on a 22lr at 75yard zero your 1 mill dot high at 50 and 1 low at 100 so would this be the same Quote Link to post
Tanican 24 Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) @ Si. Thanks you for popping over last night before going on your business trip. Me and Steve are converted and Steve is intending selling his own unit now and ordering a NiteHunter add on. For anyone who as not witnessed this unit but is skeptical of its capability you really need to see it for yourselves. From what I saw and comparing it with a £600 night vision rifle scope rated at gen 1 the add on was far far better with the illuminator turned on and the viewed picture is super bright and clear even at the 150 yards Si set it up at just before he had to depart on business.

The things that you are asking to see I have done in the full review . After speaking to Nite - Hunter yesterday he as managed to knock another 1 inch off the unit and now fitted a even better lens and managed to get a much better focal distance (means nothing to me but to others it may mean something). He tells me the picture is now even better . The newer model is now getting rubberised at this moment and he as asked that i wait before releasing the review as he wants me to now add the model that is 3 months further on advanced than the unit Im using at the moment so i can show the advances he as made in production and design. Regarding the aim points at various mags. You can have the add on at any mag you want from 1 to 10 and it want change your hold over / under points as its only magnifing your scope and nothing more. The difference will be seen if you turn the scope mag ring up or down. I shoot on x10 in the day and can use x 10 at night too now and still use the same hold over points. Si. Quote Link to post

I want to be able to support Laura well on my departure from the military and give her the nice things she rightly deserves . I've already completed levels 4,5 in management at the Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) and level 6 at NVQ and now am sat completing the PRINCE 2 Project Managers course then the APMP course (end of March) followed by the Management of Risk course in October. They are all added strings to my bow as they say and as the military are paying for them for me its a great start for the future i think. Just got to find a new job now Si. Quote Link to post
