    best laser dry fire system?

    Good to know. The subscription is keeping me from trying it. I like how there gun holder appears to operate, better than anything else out there.

    A gun thread.... I have not started one in a While. Ideas for the new AR....

    Going 12.5 on my next one. From what I remember, it's only about 50fps difference than 14.5.

    Options for AR-15 fixed mag

    Pain in the ass to load either way. Uzi's are great shooters if running right. If any feed issues ever occur, it's either a top plate adjustment or a magazine height adjustment. Didn't want to drill and rivet a mag. I can take the catch off and either grind epoxy off, or just buy a new one for...

    Options for AR-15 fixed mag

    Good old jb weld. Dab on the back of the mag catch been keeping the uzi safe from communist NY since the good old Cuomo days. No need to weld in mag with it, these are harder to come by than a stripped lower.

    Budget thermal on the way, may surprise some of you!

    Went outside quick to show daughters boyfriend not expecting to see anything. He was just scanning around quick and found three deer completely invisible to us. This was at around 4x mag and somewhere between 100-125 yards. Incredible how quick and easy it is to spot something.

    Also can do pip with the phones cam. Too bad it won't let me zoom the camera to match the thermal though.

    I like white hot myself, followed by black. I can enable Hotspot tracking too. Makes it so you can't miss anything really. The reticle auto tracks to the hottest part of the screen. Works really well for black or white hot to make sure you're not going to miss any critters.

    At under $400, I like it. I've seen that it holds zero fine on 5.56, but if I was going that route I'd buy a dedicated nv/thermal scope. I'll use this as a scanner, and I believe I'm going to buy a silenced .25 pcp that I'll throw this on for pest control.

    It has your normal pallets. Six I believe. 1 looks like a low contrast white hot 2 red hot 3 black hot 4 white hot 5 iron hot I believe 6 rainbow. Many reticle choices, and color combos. Here's base mag 2x at about 50yds or so. Dark outside now, looks like neighbor got home a bit ago. And...

    Well the new toy came in today. It's raining out, so just futzing around inside. Mounted in the picatinny mount The included holder, and phone mount for just scanning. And just some test pictures. Forgot to focus on a couple, but it's close enough. I also forgot to shut the logo off in...

    And here's a great video showing different animals at different distances comparing against a sight mark wraith NV scope. Also shows how he side mounted it on his ar, and uses it for scanning.

    This guy put it up against his $2000 higher resolution atn thor 4 for comparison. People at 40 yards People at 100 yds, with the road in back at 600 yds. He does go on to say the atn does better in the dark than these photos look. This is daytime.

    Good to know. For anyone looking into this camera, it is 256 at 12um with a base mag of 2x zoom able to 15x. Im assuming digital zoom would turn to a complete mess past 4 or 5x. Possibly why this was looking better than other 256, and even 384 products I was looking at.

    The rattler was on my list while researching. I really wanted to settle on 384, just decided on this for price since I'm not predator hunting.

    Has an adjustable cross hair. To be clear, I'm just picking this up as a multi function thermal. Seems to work incredibly well for its price point. If I wanted something dedicated to rifle use, I'd definitely pick something else, but believe this can be used for 150 yards and in, while also...
