Need the title to be changed to “nothing wrong with night vision scopes I’m just marketing a different product”
Nope, we address all the reasons agains night vision scopes in this video. If you want a cheap product that isn't versatile then grab a scope. If you want a setup that is efficient and gets it done across a variety of setups and platforms then a clip-on is the answer. There is a very specific reason top tier companies aren't making scopes. They are outdated and obsolete. With that being said, we are here to simply give you the information to arm you to make the best decision.
@@LicentiaArmsCo Man I agree that those clip ons are versatile but the set up you are running with that gun/scope/clip on is well over $10,000. That is way out of range with what most people are willing to spend on a night vision set up. Sure if you have the money that’s the way to do it no doubt. But that doesn’t mean a good ole sightmark wraith on a bolt action 22-250 can’t get the job done. Been doing it for years.
Nah, “Do NOT buy a night vision scope.” is much more concise and gets more attention and many more clicks and views. People can then decide if they want to go a less expensive route.
Perfect length of video for the specific message.
Great bit of marketing done right here by @Licentia Arms co.
Well done.

Lmao,😅
Why buy a night vision scope when you can pay 9,000 to 13,000 for a clip on night vision scope lol😂
Right! 11k for that giant bulky 😂
You're probably thinking about running a dedicated digital NV setup for a couple hundred that won't have an FOV worth ten dollars
Probably not @@ANONM60D
A arma sight thermal clip on is 4 grand and is better than nvg
You did not address the cons. Like the optic has to focus on the eye view optic of the clip on (CNVD). Zooming to max power will enlarge the image of the cnvd, getting it more blurry with each #x of zoom magnification. The resolution of the eye viewer of the cnvd is crucial here and YMMV. Using my atn ps-28 gen 2Plus WP tube, I can shoot plates out to 200 yards with my acss SFP 1x6 lpvo, just barely. I start at 3x, acquire target and zoom to 6x for BDC. The target gets blurrier and larger and is almost not recognizable at 6x. Zooming in from 3x to 6x is the only way I can shoot the "Blob" that was the target. Also it must be aligned within 3mm of center of day optic to retain less than 1 MOA of offset.
Another pro is that you can use it by itself as a monocular, although it is 1x.
Mine is a budget cnvd. The milspec pvs-30 can be used to 1000m.
I installed this optic on a crossman 760 air rifle.I have now shot the riffle around 500 times during target/plinking practice, and the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxc4K63Fd5LglDMObu7-Bgapxp_ef0W8hE scope has done well.With this optic, I have neutralized around 30 pigeons that were invading one of my buildings.For my short range air rifle, I will continue to use this scope, but will be upgrading to a more powerful scope, when I buy a more powerful air rifle, in order to shoot at longer distance.For the money I have spent, this scope has truly been a great buy.
Good video. I almost made this mistake. I did TONS of research before buying my night vision. One of the videos I watched pointed out that having night vision binoculars combined with an IR illuminator/laser and a red dot scope with night vision settings was the best way to go for most people. This kind of setup gives you better overall situational awareness - your visibility is not restricted to looking through your rifle scope. I ended up buying a PVS-31A from you and it is AWESOME. For shooting out to 100 yards it’s very effective. In addition I can use it when driving my Jeep at night and just general scouting/observation.
Glad you are loving your 31's! You are spot on with night vision is very application and priority driven. It is a tool for a job, however, not all jobs require the same tool.
Clip-ons are great, but you can get much cheaper standalone NIR/SWIR scopes. If one’s budget comfortably allows a clip-on, sure, go for a clip-on.
Counter point: Ye Olde PVS-10, which has a lever you swing back and forth for day or night function. Neat old piece of kit.
At least put a link to what you have Clipped in front of the scope..
I rewind the video 5 times and I still can't catch those letters & number You said which was What the device is..
Some optics lens coating dont work well with clip ons and you also need to "zero" your clip on or impact point will be off.
Bro I'd like to be proven wrong but you are just plain wrong!
If you do your research, it will never be a terrible idea !
So im a little confused here. What do y’all define as a “night vision scope”. Is it thermal?
A night vision scope is a dedicated scope with an image intensifier in the scope. Meaning that scope provides night time capability only. Much like a thermal scope, but with an image intensifier tube instead.
Lot of compromises with a clip on NV...standalone units are much better in my expereince.
You forgot to mention that they are around 10K, so... yeah.... NO...
my agm thermal has video and adio recording, muliple reticle choices, different color modes (white hot, black hot, etc.) can store zeroing data for five different guns, and be moved from one to the other, and was under $1000!
And yet the military does not use clip ons- to each their own but clip ons have been around quite some time and theres a reason they are not the greatest tech. Sure you get to not fuss around re-zeroing and its easily removable, but you have a massive disadvantage as far as weight and wielding go. You could easily clip a nvs off and clip on a daytime in a negligible amount of time, if that’s your concern. I do see where you’re coming from though.
Why use NV clip on or scope when you can have a thermal scope?
So you could put it on different rifles without having to reset your zero
NV clip ons suck. Zooming in on the back of an MCP leads to images that look like blobs past certain ranges that are FAR closer than would hope after dropping about 10g's
How far can you shoot out with that. 300 yards at night
So, removing and reseating an optic is slow, cumbersome, and can throw off your zero, so instead of that, buy our clip-on, which is cumbersome and can throw off your zero, not to mention giving the added benefit of distortion from a other entire device, but hey.
At least it's not slow?
Worth a look, anyway.
What’s a good
One to buy? Add links please
In your thumbnail; what’s that laser on top
What was the night vision attachment called again couldnt quite catch it?
Which clip on night vision device is this in the video?
DO you think this extends to thermal as well?
We do, clip-ons have so many benefits. However, the main problem with thermal clip-ons are the cost so that is where the spread in performance versus cost may not make sense for some.
@@LicentiaArmsCowhat clip on was in this video?
yes i want to spend $10,000 to obliterate all of my rail space. if you are able to spend that much on a clip on, you can have a dedicated night rifle. or invest in some good return to zero quick release mounts and swap scopes while admitting you arent a sniper anyway and the tiney zero shift isnt going to affect anything practically.
What is the best clip on on the market?
I use the Pard007 day&night vision scope the first model. I screw on the eagle mod clip that holds the pard007 to whatever scope I'm using on my real rifles or air rifles without changing nothing on the scope I do lose some of my cross hair's because of the perception but not by much I still see the target.
Pard NV007sp. And won’t look like a bus on your weapon like that thing.
Clip ons are the future? Lol funny just cause before goggles became so advance weapon mounted Night vision was being used. Talking 90s and early 2000s. With the current trend in the military and the Envg program which I think is dumb, it’s over kill. All they needed to do was a simple NVG with thermal overlay in a small light weight package. I digress, with the Next generation scope they are going to try and crane NV and thermal and regular glass all in one scope. I do like clip ons, I don’t disagree with this philosophy on a DMR rifle. I know people poke fun at “modularity” but expanding your capabilities is gonna be an advantage in any combat situation. I do love how greedy NV companies are though. So you buy duals and pay 12-14k for them because your getting 2 tubes.. so what’s the argument on a clip on? It’s just a over sized more robust pvs14. Really think that housing cost 8k more then the pvs14. After all your only getting one tube and a single L3 filmless tube can be bought for 2500-3000. I love NV and always have since I was first issued it. My love for guns and Nv my be what made me climb through the upper tiers of the military. Like are quad nods 40k? The tubes themselves could be had for leas than 12k. Seriously think a polymer housing and some fancy glass and wiring cost 28k? Imagine if car manufacturers charged the same as firearm companies. A Honda Civic would cost 100 million dollar
heavy, take more batteries, useless in a day, too big size
here's the answer: its better use thermal scope
Username fits
You can only be hooked up with a Picatinny not a barrel
I have a dedicated .22 rifle for night vermin hunting. 850nm laser and 850nm goggles. Point and shoot.
What scope is that you’re running? @LicentiaArmsCo
Why not have a try of the Infiray T2 Pro ? $399 thermal monocular I think will be very convenient for you
what is that
🤔🤔🤔
$399?
are you sure that is a monocular?????
koly crap!!! are you aware that there is an Acme brick on the fron of that rifle?
Hey I recently got a pvs-28-4 I'm having trouble getting it clear I've put it front of luepold mark4 and a vortex venom and a arken ep-5 the luepold have the best clarity but not like it should be what ave should go down to fix this
I just dont like clip ons. I got a digital holograghic scope with ir/nods. A lot has changed and developed in just 2 years 😆
Of course they are going to say this, just go to their website and see what they are selling, I'm sure they will give me a military discount though and give me their night vision product in this video for $500, which is what ATN, or Sightmark costs.
Hey Licentia Arms Co., what model is that Spuhr mount?
Where dew eye get this
Just get a digital day/night scope like the RIX T20, Pulsar C50 or the SHL Ronin and hunt all day and night with the same weapon and optic.
Well now there is a great scope that is digital which is used day or night much lighter to carry, one shot zero in. Amazon carries all you want. very nice one piece with quick release mounts
Maybe you help me sir I'll send you a comment I'm going to buy a 1x10 scope and like you're saying there but I don't want to buy a new night vision like you're saying then I have tear it all down sighted all back in all that but what would hook up on it one by 10 scope and like you're showing there and how much is the price on them or if it's too high can you tell me a better one like that a little bit cheaper but I still like to know the prices on them if you send me a link I'll really appreciate it thank you sir have a good day and I'm building a AR-15 up okay thank you
What about thermal scopes vs clip ons?
Thermal Scopes are primarily for detection over identification. Thermal absolutely has it place, however, we do still believe that if budget allows a thermal clip on is a much better option than a dedicated scope in most applications.
The price......
Thermal is the only way I'd go. Likely iRay.
Both thermal and night vision has their place. Both is the answer.
Buy a super expensive analog clip on....we need to justify tube prices.
Digital, could buy 15 of them for the price of a single analog clip on.
Digital is nowhere near the performance of analog. ESPECIALLY at magnification.
digital? hahahahahahaha
@LicentiaArmsCo yes but you need to buy 12 of them for a charity like I had to, it's the only way. I called L3 (I did contract work for them at one point) I called trijicon, Knights and even called armasight. Nobody wanted to give use any help on buying the gear we needed. So we bought 12 digital, 4 thermals and 2 FLIR handhelds. We used the 4 thermals for the guides guns, the 12 dnv scopes for our loaner rifles and 2 hand-held units were used for tracking blood and wounded animals. It worked out great.
Add extra weight and added to the end of the rifle. That's not going to be comfortable. I get your points, but you left out a lot of pros for full thermal scopes. That thing looks like it was made in Russia...
Clip on prob won’t fit with a scope on my 10.5 sbr.
Nope you need a 6 mile barrel with that monster 🤦🏻♂️
I could prove you don’t need a clip on with a bow and arrow😂
Thermal clip-on's are the future not NV.
Slim, QUIET, works great. I wanted modern and out of the way. This is it!
Talk about front heavy, that's just fooking stupid.. Never heard of a day/night scope (smart scope)
Is no one gonna tell him?
What is this?
rich guy speaks, listen at your own risk
What locker is that?
Gallowtech
Would not like to be carrying that thing around.
Yeah but theyre 15k
Or or hear me out, you can have 2 rifles, i know its crazy but most people arent buying night optics for schwacking hajis or antifa members, theyre more likely trying to eliminate nuisance critters. Yeah if youre in a situation where youre relying on that one rifle to survive then keeping everything simple and dialed in at all.times is the way, and having an auxiliary night vision device that can be taken on and off without upsetting the works then of clurse thats how you should go about it. But if youre like me and have been inundated with coyotes then having a separate rifle for going bump in the night is the way to go
Summary. Don’t buy a night vision scope cause the $10k clip on is better
This will never work well 😂 for various reasons, also cumbersome and very heavy.
Clip on thermals are the future.
Exactly. What get a clip on night vision when a clip on thermal is WAY more effective. Just save your cash
%100! Amen and preach. Now that ima changed man in the way of thinkin I've got the bigger problom of which optic to clip the clip on..🤔... Leopold? Trijicon!!?, hmm vortex? I'll jus get all 3. Hell at these prices I might as well yall sell em in small med and large $k9.5. 10.5 an what was the last 1? 13 666? Here take my daddy's credit card number down right quick an hold onto it... got somin new cumin out??, charge it ship it send it good buddy. No need to ask. I mean it's not like daddy has all this money from honest work. Just screwin people out of their money so it ain't no thang
Here's why you don't buy a NV Scope, because I'm shilling out and my opinions are more valid than yours. Don't do your own Research let me tell you what to do.
Not at all, we always encourage everyone to do their own research. Night vision is all application based. However, where scopes are on the market they do not make sense for someone that is serious about magnified capability. This is simply our perspective.
See that’s what happens when a shooter smokes weed.night/day vision digital scopes are so superior now.and if that’s the set up your using it looks ridiculous..grow up
Don’t tell me what to do
Who has $10k for a clip on 😂😂😂😂
Totally disagree!!!
Lets bash night scopes… without showing why ours is better.
Don't buy a night vision scope... Buy this night vision scope 🙄

lol nice $11,000 clip on buddy f*** ever man we aren’t rich 🤣
Nice set up though rich guy
yeah your prices are completely unreasonable!!!
Our prices are absolutely in line with the industry and the products that we sell. If you want cheap then we are not the company for you, however, if you want the best then we can help. I would recommend to really dive into the tube offerings and the products you are comparing our prices to as most systems are not apples to apples.
Deer are coming across the southern border EVERY F%#*IN night! Please get down there with your night vision scopes and terminate them.
no you
Honestly night vision Scopes are a meme for the same price you can get a really nice thermal scope
Two completely separate applications. Both have their place.
: Pulsar Digex C50 enters the chat :
@@AmericaFirstKorey other than the C50 is a digital gen 1 device which relays on IR illumination.
@@nemisous83 ... Have you ever ran analog NV rifle scopes? I've ran multiple generations of them. Give me digital, all day (4K resolution / video - audio recording / one-shot zero / over a dozen reticles and color combinations / FFP / SFP reticle options). Both technologies, analog or digital (rifle scopes), require IR illumination to be effective. Pulsar Digex C50 dominates competitors like the Bering Optics D750, especially in low-light (twilight), where the C50 can still run in full-color mode.
Navigation is where analog is king.
@@AmericaFirstKorey honestly this comment really makes me think you haven't ever used anything above gen 1 night vision because gen 2 and gen 3 do not require IR illumination to see they amplify ambient light by thousands of times. Just admit you basically bought essentially a 4k security camera. Digital is fine for hog hunting since they aren't shooting back at you.but for a little extra coin you could have gotten a thermal sight......so

Its too bulky
Our products are made of new space materials, durable and lightweight
Yeah NO….
You did not sell me at all. That is a huge clunker on my rifle. No way that is better than a one piece IR scope. That is NOT the future.
Lol it’s like 20000
toooo heavy
Lol, $10,500.00 let me get my check book
The upfront cost is more than a scope but the versatility and quality is there so long term trade off for us is a no brainer.
