I’m very happy to hear AGM is now offering thermal binoculars. This will significantly help prices come down for the future as Pular has been the only real offering so far. I predict for shot show 2026-2027 we will have more advancements in optical zooms for scopes. Imagine a 640, 1024, or higher resolution with a 1-10 optical zoom. I can’t wait for that technology. Imagine if Swarovski, leica, Nikon, or the other high end ocular companies got into the thermal game with their lens crafting skills…
I know the focus is on the 1024/1280 stuff right now and agree that it will eventually make the lower tiers more affordable. I'm hoping that we'll soon see the "Budget 640" range expanded a bit from the popular 2x $2700-2900 competitors to also include some additional 2.5-3x $3000-3200 options in those same form factors/designs with slightly larger lenses.
Yes sir we did! From what we saw it was the best clip on we’ve ever seen. There are 3 models and they offer not firm pricing except “likely $10,000+” and an earliest ETA of fall 2025. We will be giving updates as we get them.
We are currently sticking with the quality thermal brands with a proven track record of quality optics, fair prices, proven customer service and longevity in the market to honor their warranties over time. There are many new overseas thermal companies popping up and we are keeping our finger on the pulse but we’ve yet to see anything that we’re willing to hang our names and reputations on yet. Thanks for watching and we’d love to have your business!
It will be over several months as they released about 13 new optics, most of which haven’t been released yet. We do have the Evolver 1280 and a couple of the Adder V2’s but we’re still waiting on the rest. If you’re looking to purchase from Outdoor Legacy feel free to give us a call and we can give your our one on one review on the scopes after we’ve tested them but before we have time to release our reviews. Thanks!
I completely agree. Pulsar was the industry leader by far, and still superior. I appreciate their continued focus on the thermal sensors, but I feel others are progressing faster with dual/variable optic zoom and integrated LRF into the lenses to reduce overall size. Supposedly they have something coming later this year, so we'll have to see what they bring to market.
Can anyone explain to me what the situation is with Iray and NocPix. They are the same company, correct? Is the Nocpix line inferior to the Iray line of products? I feel like Iray had this product explosion with something new every couple of months, and now they have version 2's of several products and and 1024 scope. But then Nocpix pops up under the Iray umbrella, and a lot of Iray products are no longer available according to different vendors. My concern is this something to do with manufacturing overseas? Tariffs? Is the company stable enough to last through my warranties of two new scopes that I own? Just wondering-seems confusing to me. And I like the Iray brand-I own two other thermals (ATN and Trijicon)-Iray just works better for me....Thanks for all the info from SHOTShow.
Essentially there are now 2 brands under the iRay USA umbrella. Infiray Outdoor and Nocpix. Infiray Outdoor released the RH25 V2 and the RL42R in the fall. Nocpix is still new and releasing their full product line. We’re being told to expect more optics coming from Infiray Outdoor as well in due time. We have 0 reason to believe that iRay USA would be going away and couldn’t support their scopes. While anything is technically possible, we just see no reason to even hint of that. We’re being told that over time we will see a more logical separation between the product lines. We known this might not answer all your questions but hopefully it helps.
Sort of but Pulsar released their Axion compact in the fall, AGM released all the Taipan V2’s (previously Seekers) and then more recently the Reach IR’s, Nocpix has released their 2 Vistas… So there’s been a decent amount released recently but definitely not many at SHOT.

Yeah buddy 🎉
I wish manufacturers didn’t forget about us close range guys 😢 we need more RH25 competitors.
If they sold in better quantities they would make more. Thanks for watching
Exciting times
Yes it is!

Did y’all wonder over to the Nvision booth and check out their clip on?
Yes sir we did! From what we saw it was the best clip on we’ve ever seen. There are 3 models and they offer not firm pricing except “likely $10,000+” and an earliest ETA of fall 2025. We will be giving updates as we get them.
I haven't heard yall speak about the new Thermnight products. Do you have an opinion on the new Thermnight 335r and do yall sell them?

When will we see reviews of the new AGM products?

Awesome. Wanting to purchase the new Adder V2 35-640 but waiting for a review or some footage to release on it
RIX RULES!
Thanks for watching!
Would you hesitate to buy Infiray Bolt Tx60c at the reduced price than these others if I want 3x mag?
Not at all. If you want 3x it’s a heck of a good scope.
Pulsar needs dual lens ( 1.5 to 3 )

Seems like a slow year for scanners.
