If you want to be successful at hunting coyotes, you need to wrap your head around one simple truth: they own the night. Sure, you might spot one during the day, but they really come alive after the sun goes down. Tapping into that behavior is the secret sauce for consistent success, and this guide…
Army night vision binoculars are more than just a tool for seeing in the dark; they are sophisticated optical instruments built to a standard that professionals trust with their lives. At their heart, these devices use Generation 3 (Gen 3) image intensifier tubes to gather and multiply tiny amounts of available light, turning a pitch-black…
Measuring scope height is all about finding the distance from the center of your rifle's bore to the center of your optic. The most straightforward way to do this is to measure three things: half the bolt's diameter, half the scope tube's diameter, and the gap between the top of the bolt and the bottom…
Picture this: you're scanning a field in total darkness, and suddenly, the distinct, glowing silhouette of your target appears in the brush. That's the power of a hunting thermal monocular. It's a handheld device that reads infrared energy—heat—and turns it into a clear image, letting you see animals and other objects when your own eyes…
Generation 2 night vision marked the single biggest jump in capability the industry has ever seen. It’s where professional-grade performance became accessible, offering a potent mix of capability and value. The secret sauce was the Microchannel Plate (MCP), an innovation that completely changed the game, leaving older tech in the dust. Think of Gen 2…
At its core, night vision technology isn't a single thing. It's really two completely different ways of solving the same problem: how to see when our eyes can't.

It's the perfect sweet spot of performance, versatility, and value. But if you have the budget and need top-tier depth perception for tracking fast-moving targets, nothing beats…
A low cost night vision scope isn't about settling for less; it's about smart, accessible technology. We're primarily talking about high-quality digital and Generation 1 devices that open up the night without the military-grade price tag. Think of it like this: a reliable pickup truck gets the job done for most people, while a Formula…

This narrow, "tunnel vision" effect is the single biggest limitation of traditional NVDs. You're constantly sweeping your head back and forth, trying to piece together a mental picture of your surroundings, which is…
