RNVG’s vs PVS-31’s 

This is one of the most knowledgeable comparisons I've seen to date

I don't know what you're talking about. When I was an 0311 I got to look through a PVS-7 for like 5 whole minutes. I felt very prepared.

we had a powerpoint, on pvs-7bs, when i went to soi in 2009. then got issued 14s and had no idea wtf I was doing. its funny how much things change (like what youre issued now) and how things stay the same (training, mannerisms in your speech) good shit bro, stay safe, thanks for the knowledge 🤙

I love my RNVGs. with the battery pack, you cant go wrong. Also, i wanted the most robust system i could get, as I'm spending my own $$$$.

well that kinda ends the debate in my head. Was thinking about PVS-31A, 1531, and DTNVS. But... looking cool isn't everything. Think I'll just get RNVGs with the best l3 unfilmed WP tubes available. One thing that is holding me back is the lack of manual gain. But I hear from a lot of people that it really isn't that big of a deal. Semper Fi.

Nice review bud, I’m a nonner in the ch-Air Force but I’m soon on my way to get out, and this is my next purchase/gift for myself for finishing my enlistment lol.

Same with the Army dude. I was a medic for an infantry battalion in the 101st and we were never taught much about NVGs. We didn't even learn about them in basic if I recall. Thankfully I had good NCOs to teach me about NVGs. Will be purchasing my own dual tube nods soon. Thanks for the info homie

Sorry to hear the MC is not supplying the training you have self taught. Your presentation rocks. This from a Marine who only trained on Starlights with ABC. Thanks. Semper Fi

Good stuff, homie! 🤙🏼

RNVG is not using the same battery connector as PVS-31, it's LEMO and 31 is Fischer so thats the reason it's not fixing. BTW both connectors are differs the way it's secure in connector, so you just need get Fischer (from battery pack - BOTH original and replica) => LEMO connector or you also can use just LEMO LEMO if it's original one (the use a little other connector, it can work in battery pack, but you wont be able to pull it out as it will stuck)

Thanks for the info and thank you for your service! Subscribed!

Good video thank you ! Also thank you for your Service sir

DTNVSs are in the same weight range with specific lenses as PVS31As but lack a remote port, Manual Gain adjustment, and have less clear lenses than the PVS31As even with the higher end and lighter lenses. They do have optional IP stops though. And use CR123As vs AA batteries.

Awesome comparison. Thanks for posting brosiedon.

Awesome info, you might not want to be a RU-vid star, but more people should hear what you have to say imo. Liked and subbed.

Good informative video. Couple questions... 1. What unit in the Corps is now issuing opscore lids? If you can say. 2. Who makes that rad folding shovel?

That’s a sweet mount, never knew there was one that slid up and down.

Thanks for the video a. Semper Fi. 1/1/1 S-2

Thank you choppa poppa

Great info. Thanks.

I understand the your point of the helmet being in the way after flipping your nods up with them articulated closer to the helmet but if you know you're not going to be using them for a bit it greatly reduces the felt weight since they are not sticking way off the helmet. Plus if you're running duels it you can articulate one up and run them as a mono if you want to retain natural nightvision in one eye to see the environment naturally. You could also just articulate both up if you need to just get them out of the way but if you're familiar with your gear you should be able to just flip the mount up just as fast. Personally I like articulation but I can also see how someone would just want to set their IPD and just have a simpler setup that they don't have to mess with too much. While there is a lot of pros to articulation sometimes simpler is better.

The military does teach you alot about night vision, unless you’re a pog.

Very unique perspective

Fuck yeah bro proud

Im saving up for the RNVG's. i know theyre probably not the best option out there for features, but i want my first duals to be as idiot proof as possible, lol. in all honesty, i wish they had the bright light auto shut off feature or a flip up turn off feature. picking them up from TNVC by the way.

what does the patch mean at 6:35 on your helmet. I see it everywhere

Good shit

I wonder if anyone has been so wide eyed that they maxed out the ipd adjustment 🤔

Aren’t you guys using the 31 Delta now with an ECOTI?

Also instead of using the IR on NVGs, it's better to use the IR flash on something like a Peq15 which will not blind people like it would if you were using the IR light on some Nods

what battery pack is the RNVG made for since the pvs-31 one doesnt lock in?

Rule #1 to life. Always look cool.

Can you dig into the actual tubes? I haven't seen anyone explain the specs hardly at all

🤟🤟🤟

Are you issued those nods? Or do you pay out of your own pocket?

I meaaan… If you don’t want them RNVGs…

You Special Force

Do you have an opinion on unfilmed vs. filmed and green vs. white?

Must be nice getting issued 31s and fast helmets we get the 42s and the ihps in the army and they’re the biggest pieces of shit
