Diffrence between Gen 1, 2, 2+ ...

Sweden · Guest

Hi,
Im about to buy a nightvision scope. Thou I live in Sweden, I want to get the right one from the start. I have tryed nightvisionscopes erlier, but I haven´t been so impressed by them so far. How big is the diffrence between the generations? Do you have pictures on your site so I can see the diffrence? I have looked att your YU-RS-26021 wich is a gen 2+ scope.
I think the price seems to be right at this product, but do you have more or better scopes in this price segment? Can you recomend anything?

Next question is: how do the retricle looks like in these scopes?

Regards,
Fredrik

Hi

Can't really give ou an accurate picture that shows the differences. NV is a low resolution technology and no NV riflesight will even remotely compare to the quality of a good daytime riflescope.

For deer sized targets, I usually quote 50 yards as a max for Gen 1 under average conditions. Add 25 yards for a good Gen 2. For Gen 3, depending on the grade, you are looking at a 150-200 yard scope.

By the way, it is against the law here in the Us to export riflescopes outside the US. Sorry.
