    Night Vision Preps

    I don't know how many here have considered how you will defend or guard your location when night falls.

    We all know how much bad guys like the darkness.

    I have been looking at a cheap small night vision item to have for just such a thing.



    But what I'm really excited about is this baby.

    FLIR MS 324 First Mate Thermal Night Vision Camera at The GPS Store

    This is a FLIR unit. It can see in the dark too. I think it's better than night vision because it detects thermal heat signatures.

    NOTHING can hide from it.

    It will also be used to find food animals in the dark.

    I'm very impressed with how good this works. It has one setting that makes it look almost like daytime. Really cool item for survival.

    The site I linked is the cheapest place for this unit. I saved about $400 compared to other sites.

    Go to the FLIR site and watch the comparison video between night vision and FLIR.

    FLIR Personal Vision Systems

    Lol for most of us on here 1700 isnt cheap. But its definitely something to consider. Ill have to settle for some gen 2 or 3 nvgs, hard part will be slipping it by the wife.

    I could convince the wife (I think) but it would be for critter defence (in her mind)... It's nothing to have wolves or coyotes or even a cougar or two in my yard, or raccoons on the deck, in the barbeque etc. when the dog goes Balistic at 0200, I typically light up the area with a 15 million W flashlight. That and a couple shots will scare away, or just kill a 4 legged intruder. But I'd love to sit back and watch them in the dark... see what they are doing, where they're coming from, and where they are going.

    But, alas, nightvision anything is mostly frowned upon in Canada.

    I told my girlfriend about what it could do and she said...hell yea...

    After I got it and she looked through it....she really said hell yea...

    My guess is bad guys only come out at night. (the majority)

    Remember...nothing (man or beast) can hide it's heat signature....
