Thread: Hand held thermal now legal on public land

For day light spotting in open country I don't think there is any harm in it, certainly a game changer for spotting game with the high end models. If anything it's annoying that they will soon become a must have an another very expensive piece of kit that everyone carry's around.
However the rifle scope versions for night shooting are definitely crossing the line and should not be used on DOC Land. To me thats definitely in the realm of pest control and not hunting.
