A new years resolution of mine is to try to Duracoat one of mine in the copperhead pattern.


I hope you keep that resolution and show us the results....that's a great looking camo

Here's a link to it from ATN's web site.

This is the first and only NV device that I currently own. I actually bought the scope from a friend a couple of years ago. I really like this particular scope for what it cost, as you have probably seen the latest generation scopes can break the bank in a hurry. On nights with good moon light you don't even need to turn the IR light on....bottom line, I like the scope enough that if I had extra $$$ just lying around, I would buy another.

I would advise that if you are is the market for a NV scope to check out other models, because like I said my experience is fairly limited. It would be great to find a dealer that stocked multiple models to compare.
