I have 3 set ups, 2 on suppressed 44 magnum rifles ( may as well be unheard as well as unseen). My main kit is 2 or 3 sets of PVS-7 NV Goggles ( depending on whos hunting) a Ruger 44 magnum Suppressed with a Gen2+ nightscope and a IR laser as backup for close hurried shots. My goggles have either the Skull crusher or helmet with attached IR torch that gives about 300 meter clear visibility on black nights and shows up deer and other animals eyes out to around 600mts. We usually hunt deer on no moon nights if we can help it.

Other set up is the goggles/ helmet and IR torch with IR laser and day scope on suppressed 44 magnum Rossi single shot. last is day scope on any other rifle with IR laser attached and PVS-7 with Skull crusher and IR torch, it`s the lite carry for miles rig.

With a bit of practice these rigs are deadly and fun if you have someone tag along who can see as well. That said its heaps funnier having some one along on a black night who can`t see shite and you get to see them flounder around !!

Not cheap set ups and mine have accumulated over a period of years.
