This old man is tripping, 2019 I saw nato dudes in Iraq wearing them

Ruined it with a capo.

Good to know. My optics and wml’s I stick with primarys. But for my everyday use handhelds, it hurts putting primarys in every couple weeks

The rechargeables have been great for training but I stick with fresh lithium primaries for work.

Fantastic. Thank you Sam.

The sf rechargeable have been working good. Like to use them in 1cell helmet light mawl and NVG . Just need to cycle them more than standard non rechargeable 123 when training. I won’t use them in weapon or hand held lights though.

No one is going broke paying $2 to swap their eotech's battery before heading to the range to send hundreds of dollars of lead down range. The real roll of rechargeable is for off grid sustainment when more batteries are no longer a next-day delivery away. This is true of all batteries, and it's great to have a Surefire alternative for the c123s. I have a no-name 3.0v rechargeable that's been working for me, but I'll happily swap to these 3.2v Surefires for that added peace of mind. Glad to know these exist.

Wouldn’t the break even be closer to 12 charges?

Hell yeah, thanks for the video Sam

I was just wondering about these rechargeables. Thanks.

Didn't this same thing happen to Nick Chen a couple years ago too

Always shut off remote lock/unlock on your rental or POV when you have sensitive/expensive equipment stored inside. I'm sure it's common in Las Vegas for people to run keyfob cloners/spoofers targeted at rental cars, but the timing of this seems targeted. At a minimum if they didn't know what specifically they were going to get it seems like they knew who they were hitting. It's a frustrating, sickening feeling.

Sorry about this, man. Ppl suck, I’m on the west coast and I use fb marketplace and offerup quite a bit. Items are prbly in Mexico but on the off chance I come upon a high spec dtnvs and coti I’ll reach out. Big takeaway here is Insurance. This is the stuff of nightmare.

Total bummer....I have always appreciated your material and effort on this channel. Until they open up a hunting season on the Cartels this will continue. Most people think the Cartel is just someone running a hoodie...little do they know it is businesses, lawyers and in Arizona....a US Senator. (I can guarantee a few Congressmen are also on the payroll).

Those scumbags will be back in January.

I bought (2) shirts. Was running low on TP.

dang. Sorry man. They will get theirs eventually. Best Wishes

Unrelated, but what do you consider as an acceptable EBI?

Do you like HK pistols at all? I alternate between my Glock's and HK VP9 but lately have taken more of a liking to the HK because of the trigger. Love your setup

Nice, but it sounds like a hidden sales pitch.

The housing is 100% upgradable now lol 3d printing and the night vision world has taken off ive turned all my 7's into monos

All of Sam's advice is good, but I can vouch for the Thermacell. It really works better than other solutions. It also works on other bugs besides mosquitos, like no see-ums.

Thermal optic and a gun set up for “night shooting”… the game wardens must love chasing after you

I love my G45, fits every role well and is accurate and reliable. It's very satisfying out-shooting dudes in classes who run $3000 Staccatos with my stock Glock. I got to get that frame done up by Ben at Boresight. Keep up the great content bro.

Miss me with the Inferior pistol remark.. Look at all the work you did that that hunk of plastic...lol

Was interesting to see the Navy fly these next to my Shadow site

Nice run!

sick to see the uploads again 💪

Why not a 34 if you’re running a x300

Inferior pistols...😁

👍

I got a great idea let’s throw everything nightvison related in the trash and only use white lights since we all know in this guy does not think affordable is a concern

Thank you.

Brainless greed guy who betrays his customers.

So anyway I've got a pvs-7 omni vii on the way and I am so excited. Also great video, I like how you delivered the bit while making the performance seem sincere, even though this is clearly a sarcastic video making fun of people who take this stuff to seriously and act like eliteists.

Why are they so expensive? Because they can't charge the consumer less than their government contract and the government will buy them regardless of the price 🤣 So anything sold to the government will come with government inflated 10x+ the markup. There's also almost zero competition.

I see used PVS7s for 500-1500 bucks, I want to know what other options fall into that price point . Because if I’m picking up a second NVD for my wife to use I ain’t forking big dollars for it considering it will get minimal use.

SF ?

While I didn't have anything "blatantly retarded", I did have a boatload of money into my kit. It was excellent kit. Surefire/Noveske/Trijicon/etc. It was very good on the square range by myself, or hunting, or whatever, and I liked it a fair bit. I then attended my first class in 2010 with this kit, and it was pretty horrible. I actually wished I had bought nothing, attended the class, paid to rent some kit, and then bought things based off of mine and other's experiences during the class. I would have saved money, skipped the painful (Yes literally, I had a single-point sling) aspect of learning, and been far better off. My problem was that I had a bunch of cool kit, and wanted to learn how to USE it. That's backwards. Learn to use it, and then buy the "cool" kit that fits your use case well. The only thing worse is buying a bunch of cool kit and pretending that you don't need to learn more and NOT attending a class. *My attendance was at a course other than TNVC/NF, but the advice applies.

Simple Green eats aluminum and this is why it's not allowed in Aerospace. However, there is an aluminum-safe version of it. Most rails and many light/NVG housings are made from Aluminum.

Dope

Simple green, cat crap, and a clp. Everyone should have it and use it. Cat crap is great not just for making sure lenses don’t fog up, but also for making it easier to clean carbon off light lenses.

I use this for hobbying stuff already...

A $220 Core Tactical Hel-Star 6 Gen III+ is probably budget overkill for most civilian use, but clones are available on Amazon for $32 or Aliexpress for $16.

Interesting application. I’ll use that.

Thanks

Trained with Mike last April. He has a wealth of knowledge. For a guy with one eyeball, he could shoot circles around everyone in the class

I ended up doing something similar to your ADM UIC, except I used an ACRO P2 on top of a Reptilia mount holding an LPVO so as not to compromise daytime usage. Sure, it could shave about a pound if I got rid of the NX8, but would be limited much more in daytime than 1# over the magwell limits me. Still gives an elevated night vision capable RDS.

I know 1st Gen night vision is heavy and crap, but the PVS-5s and 7s look cool! Price sucks and I just want the surplus at surplus prices.

Don't buy an AR-15. It was developed in the 1950s. Don't shoot an M1911. It's a 20th-century antique. Don't shoot 45-70 Springfield. It's from the 1800s. Don't use gunpowder based weapons. They came from ancient China.
