Meece 1,957 Posted September 9, 2020 Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 A small technical issue here....It is illegal to shoot winged vermin at night by lamp or illumination. This would include night vision eqpt. Night is classified at 1 hour after sunset until 1 hour before Sun rise. This is the same as shooting game such as roosting pheasants. Potentially you could end up have your rifle and kit confiscated, issued with a fine and a criminal record if you go out shooting pigeons at night. As you are new it might be an idea to read this before you break the law. https://basc.org.uk/codes-of-practice/air-rifles-code-of-practice/ good hunting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And that applies to Canada Geese too does it - or just roosting birds? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BenBhoy 4,706 Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 How much are you looking to spend? You can get 2nd hand add on such as pard007 for reasonable £££. I use a pard008LRF and cannot fault it at all in night mode. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
philpot 4,925 Posted September 21, 2020 Report Share Posted September 21, 2020 A good little outfit as an add-on system is NiteSite Viper costing £299, there some cottage industry home made kits on ebay around £200, 'some bloke' above used to make really nice units but you will need to send him a pm as I am not sure if he still makes them. I have a s/h cottage industry one that I loaned to my son in law but as he no longer shoots, that is sat in a bag in the cupboard and you can have that for £65 plus post if that is of any interest. You will need an IR torch as I have given mine away, I may have a nv spotter as well which is out on load and that would be £60 inc torch plus post.

Vincej 3 Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) I use the Elusive Wildlife scope green light and the feeder green lights. I'm good up to 150 yards. Very good products for the money. https://www.ellettbrothers.com/ I have a friend that uses ATN thermal scope. He is good out past 150 very nice rig . If you have unlimited money go with the thermal . Edited April 14, 2021 by Vincej Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The daytime image is very decent, not as crisp as night time but more than acceptable. I can accurately shoot 200yds+ with it in day time. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
