Somewhat familiar with NV, I have finally decided to get into thermal shooting and need advice before I buy. I have been coyote hunting for years, and try to hunt a couple times a week. My main objective is to rid and control coyotes on a Pheasant Hunting Lodge that I am a partner. I want to move into night hunting this time of year because we have clients hunting during the day this time of year.
I have been driving myself crazy going back and forth on brand and need to get going.
I was seconds away from buying an ATN THor 4 640 a couple nights ago as Optic Planet(I have had great luck in the past) has a decent sale on them and for some reason one bad review lead to another and I am back to considering the new Pulsar Thermion 2 Pro 2.5x10.
I am up to spending 3-4k and am looking for good cs and a solid product that records and is somewhat simple to use with good identification.
1. I am having trouble finding a known dealer, Optics Planet is 2-4 months out on the Pulsar and the NVG have few decent reviews. Is there a Industry Member/Partner here that sells Pulsar?
2. Should I be looking at the AGM Rattler as opposed to a Pulsar? Or others?
I appreciate any and all advice
