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 ,

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.
