Post by NightVisionLover » 15 Mar 2016, 10:23

Hi all , hello from Australia , looks like a top forum ,

Always had a interest in NV , mainly a Militaria collector now days.

Recently came across this one in a local shop , no stickers or labels , belive it to be a Night Optics D-300 gen 2 ?

Not 100% sure , very happy with image quality .

Thanks for the add and hope to learn more ,

Cheers ,

Sold by www.nightvision.com.au You should be able to buy a head mount and rifle mount from them:
http://www.nightvision.com.au/night-vis ... les/m6121g
http://www.nightvision.com.au/night-vis ... nva-m6121m.

It's a Dipol D121M (Russian) housing, usually with an American Gen II milspec 'Fat ANVIS' tube. Also sold with a better resolution European (Photonis) tube for a higher price.
The US tube is an Mx9916/uv. Specs here:
http://everyspec.com/MIL-SPECS/MIL-SPEC ... 52F_40424/
Maximum light gain 15000 (Photonis will run 20000-40000), Signal to noise minimum 4.5, Photonis will be up to 24. Minimum resolution 32 lp/mm, Photonis will be up to 64.

Cased with accessories and minimal use, I've seen them sold for between 1300 and 1800 second hand here in OZ.

Gday indeed to yet another one of you upside down chaps, beats me how you all manage the obviously higher blood pressure to the brain. :D
