Night Vision Scopes

This new MUM mount was first shown in my first MUM advertisement here on the EE last week. I am happy to announce I am now able to sell this night vision commercially to you for the first time. I can tell you that this mount is LONG OVERRDUE. For the longest time we were forced to use the standard issue flattop mount that caused a great deal logistical problems from charging handle woes (MUM to far back), lack of rail real estate, to the “wobbles”, (the standard mount never clamped firm enough to our rails.) This new mount is a machined aluminum mount that securely attaches to the MUMS housing tab and to a flattop rail system. The factory height presently aligns with the EO Tech and Aimpoints. I’ve tested the unit with several hundred rounds and the unit remains rock

MUM Universal Adapter. This uni-adapter is built exclusively for the MUM NVD. It has a very well engineered adapter housing that snaps and locks SOLIDLY onto the slotted rails of the MUM. The adapter also comes with a rail of its own to mount accessories such as the IR Illuminator, “PVS-14”, IR lasers, or anything that utilizes a rail mounting system. I personally like walking around with the MUM while “PVS-17” is mounted and or a PVS-4. Its good to have an extra hand while taking pics as well! :-D The unit also comes standard with 7 bushings to fit a wide selection of optic eyepieces. A camera adapter bushing is also included that is threaded to use on standard camera step-down rings. Your local camera shop will carry these threaded rings

I have read and listened intently for the last several months for those who are on a budget and do not have the luxury of a Gen 3 device and needed a lower cost alternative. After some exhaustive testing, the D-300 Gen 2 monocular is it. For those who’s mission requires shorter recognition range out to 150 yards, with the use of “Da-Torch” IR illuminator, the D-300 can’t be beat for around 1K. I STRONGLY feel this is the least amount of money that can be allocated in order to get satisfactory results. The so-called $150.00-$500.00 units were all looked at, and the D-300 won out on all fronts for clarity, resolution and versatility.

The long list of standard features for the D-300 includes a Mil. Spec. optics, high-power multi stage infrared illuminator out to 30 yards, internal low battery and infrared indicators are packaged into a compact and rugged housing along with a Pelican hard case, and user manual round out this cost efficient NV package.

I don't think NVESD is going to pick it up. There's a guy in Miami did it and packaged in ANVIS system. Personally, I think it's just too much transmission loss through the system with added optical elements.

As for Toshiba's, that's old news....EBCCD has been around for a while. Yes, power consumption and portability will be a concern. To date, nothing is as efficient, light, reliable, and small as image intensifiers.

Also not sure why people are so fixated on resolution...believe me, there are other specs that are just as important....such as sensitivity, etc.

And Toshiba is wrong by the way about FLIR being not compact.....tell that to BMW/FLIR inc. They got one a size of 1 inch cube.....now, that's a platform to watch its further application.

I found that it uses custom modifications to the objective lenses, photocathodes, power supplies, and phosphor screens to bring color vision using Pinnacle image tubes with autogating power supplies. So it's some kind of evolutionary step above the color filters that we are used to hearing about to create color night vision previously.
