Hi Joe,
Great tips all. I just bought a Trijicon CQB battle sight, which sits nicely upon my AR. Any practical thoughts about mounting NV on the AR platform? I want it for security. I won’t pretend it’s for 4 footed animals.
I really like some of the other suggestions in the FReepers comments below. Thanks guys!
Well, the aforementioned AN/PVS-14 can go on a cantilever mount in front of the ACOG, and this can also be quickly removed and mounted to a helmet or headstrap mount if you want to use it off the weapon. At least, I think it mounts in front, due to the ACOG's extremely short eye releif. I've only used it with an EOTech, and on that rifle the NVD went behind the sight; same for the Comp-M.
The PVS-18 also does this, I think. If you can find one for sale. $:-)
I don't know what other mfgrs. equivalents of these sights are, but there's all sort of gear out there nowadays. You definitely want to do your homework.
Joe, please make your comments public. All suggestions are appreciated.
