The best gen 1 monoculor - Pulsar Challenger GS 1x20 Nightvision Monocular

I have you used and owned about eight different brands of Generation 1 night vision goggles including the armasight spark core which I gave great reviews on and other high quality gen 1 goggles. But none of them compare 2 the optical quality that the Pulsar Challenger provides. There is basically zero Edge distortion and with Generation 1 goggles that just doesn't happen you always have Edge distortion in gen 1. But Pulsar somehow figured out a way to not only make the middle of the lens clear but the entire view thru the lens. The resolution is even very high for Generation 1 at 42 mm. I highly recommend these if you're looking for a quality Generation 1 monocular. And as with all Generation 1 you do need a quality infrared light source to have the monocular work correctly. I prefer a handheld or weapon and/or helmet mounted IR light instead of the built in IR light as it is visable as a red dot to anyone who sees you. But if your not worried about being seen then the built in IR works great
