General Comments

I have a Soviet Bazaar PNS 4.6x52 night vision scope and it's a waste of space. Very short range at only 20 yards.
I tried to improve it, and boy have I just. First I fitted my lightforce 140 gun light on it, with an IR filter from Codra fitted over the light, and oh boy what a scope it is now... well over 80 yards. It's a very bright pitcher too. The lightforce has a dimmer switch fitted to it, and that's very handy to have if your close range shooting. I can target a rabbit at 90 yards just fine now in total darkness. It's a lot cheaper than a laser, and it only cost me £20 for the IR filter. I cut it to size myself. So try this out first. Don't go out and pay for a new laser you don't need! Only one word of warning... Don't have the light on for a long time (like 10 minutes) as it gets very hot. You can't really see the light very well, just a very dim red glow, but it still gets hot. This idea will work well on any night scope, and will improve them all no end, at a very cheap price, with no costly lasers to get. You're still humping around your old light, and it can still be used for normal lamping if you want to.
Good hunting - mine is now!
