The thermal optics that I have seen are way cool but too expensive for me. Title: Re: Thermal optics?

It may look the same but it is not near as good.

Post by: charles on April 03, 2012, 01:50:13 pm what are your plans/uses for the optics? if your gonna set on an elevated tck platform at night, go with night vision. if your wanting to walk around with them, get a cheap thermal handheld for located hot spots in walls of short range visuals in the woods.
here is atn's website with some prices for scopes. http://www.atncorp.com/thermal-weapon-sights your talkin a lot of money to drop for thermal imaging. i dought you will find military grade but this is as close as possible. try a flir unit too. |
