yeah makes sense that it would be down to the glass on the housing

The lens is still the lens

🤔 just white light in a building

No

focus range is the same between all pvs14 housings though?

should be roughly

unless you buy a snowflake housing instead of a standard one

there are a few companies that have contracts to supply the optics but afaik they're all supposed to be made to the same specs basically

It's probably just another MIL-STD

I mean, that's dumb of me to say because it is.

still laffin at this larper who thinks clearing houses at night under nods is an actual thing

it's not? 😢

just fuck my shit up fam

I unironically thought nightvision was used for house clearing

It depends, go figure an organization like the Army has different TTPs

It's the same thing with laser disipline

Some units are hot on it, some aren't.

room-clearing with fucking NODS is just one more thing I hope I don't have to do

Like I was in one battalion that was all about having your laser basically on if you were anywhere near contact

Cause you can just use white light

We do some pretty dumb shit but that ain't one

just turn on a light??

Judt turn the lights on. Duh

because you're fucking indoors

Another one was like straight up ND leves of hot about your laser only being on if you were actively engagin

Same thing goes for room clearing; I've worked on TTPs that were white light in rooms at all times, white light on entry, NODs only

white light seems like it would definitely expose you more even indoors 🤔

White light only for SSE, shit like that

I mean, that's the argument

You've got NODs you can already see more than some Goat farmer inside if there's low light; why flag yourself

Idk what you mean for expose, like after that first room you're kind of fucked on "sneaking" anyways

Flagging is probably a better word

Again, not arguing right or wrong; just what I've worked with/under.

I guess, they could just aim for the green lights on your eyes

it's not that bright unless it's complete black

also if it's complete black you should be whitelighting

WEll, obviously your NODs aren't going to work unless you IR off them or your PEQ

ye

Only ever seen that shit once and it was without question the worst fucking thing I ever did

how rough is it to use proper omni 7 tubes indoors without IR light?

thought being solid in extreme dark conditions was the whole point
