I don't hate to say it, but 4-tubes and a Flir T-75 provides for some great night hunting.....don't ask me how I know.

Is that a house cat or Bobcat in the owls death grip? I'm thinking house cat as I do not think that an owl would stand a chance in taking down a bobcat.

It is difficult seeing just how nice that T-75 is in that photo...

Is the UTMx available for civilian sales? Or only ones with really good connections?

I was there off to the side with a locked and cocked .45 ACP keeping the cameramen and dubious on-lookers under control....


Besides, she needs all that gear just to be able to safely find me out in the woods at night where we meet up.

Of all things I forgot. I didn't get myself a darn poster ! Handed out a few but never got one for myself. Those UTM pics are outstanding ! The Patrol was sweet buy I don't think it looked that good. Maybe you just have mad camera skills.

Today, I decided to take a Dremel to the UTM to see if I could get the Dove-tail shoe to lock into my Mod Armory bridge mount. After looking at the dove tail on the Mod J-Arm, it was apparent that all I would need to do is remove a small amount of material to create a notch where the locking mechanism would be able to catch.

I've seen a lot of thermals, but when it comes to uncooled LWIR monoculars there really is nothing that comes close. It occupies a spot all by itself. I don't know what makes that combination so magical, but Oasys hit a grand slam with the UTM-x.

Note to anyone else -- don't ever look through a UTM. It'll make you despise every thermal monocular you own.

So with a $7 Dremel tool bit you accomplished in moments what the big guys could not do.

Haha yea. The Dremel is the bomb I'm glad it worked. The first day I got the UTM I stuck it in the Mod Armory bridge and when I tilted it a little bit, it fell right out and dropped about 2 feet onto my kitchen table

TheHorta should have sent a disclaimer when he sold it to you that said the picture he posted of the UTM-X in the Mod Armory mount was for visual purposes only.
Hey look on the bright side at least it passed a drop test
