Suppressed NV Shoot at the Impact Zone

[SC-Texas]

We had a NV shoot to familiairze ourselves with our NV equipment and do some testing with a PVS-22 NS andsome flash signature testing.

Most of the flash signature was not nearly as visible to the naked eye. The PVS-14 picks up MUCH more of the flash.

The Thursday sessions:

 

[SC-Texas]

We were using PVS-14s, ANVIS-9s, a D-740 and a PVS-22 UNS provided by TNVC.

Numerous IR Lasers were in use. All movement with weapons (hot or cold) was limited and shooting was from the bench only due to safety concerns. IR lasers were treated as loaded weapons and only energized on the firing line when pointed down range.

Anyone got a spare light interference filter for a PVS-14. I've got one for a PVS-7A I need to find a home.

Man, I wish I'd known about this. Could've brought some cool toys.

Cool footage Sean!

We try to keep the NV shoots small due to safety and logistical concerns.

Its a challenge. I like the dhoots to grow and expose more folks to the fun of NV shooting.

But that breaks the rule regarding accountability and control. These are much harder to manage than the daytime shoots.

I can totally understand that. I know that without a light interference filter I would be reluctant to attend. I just bought me some Revision Eyewear Bullet Ant Goggles for use with my PVS-14. My regular glasses really sucked with the unit on the helmet mount. That had me going without glasses. I was scared I would poke out an eye while in the woods.

I agree. Thisi si why we trerated the lasers like firearms.
