Have had a few over the years. Never had a single issue with them and they punch above their weight for a 320 unit.
I also think they had the best ocular lens/display of any thermal unit I have looked through, and I’ve looked through or owned most of the high end units. In cold weather, they can go through those 4 123As at an alarming pace. Just keep in mind that you’re going to be pretty limited in terms of magnification when you use it as a clip on. |

The CRATOS is still one of the best clip-on, dedicated, and hand held all around systems. It's also one of the toughest thermal cores out there for recoil.

The Cratos is still 17um and has a fov of 21°x15.7°, I'd much rather have a Trijicon UTCxII.
Seems like a steep price for those specs. A T75 is 9.4° x 7.5° for a few thousand less. Anything the cratos does that a utcx or t75 doesnt? |

The CRATOS Is nice, compact, quality, etc. Not what I would consider a long range clip on though.
Although I guess that wasn’t something that was asked

I have not looked through one of the 640 Bosons in the new T75s though. |

The true all around versatility is really special with this system.

I didn’t understand at all, at the time. However given what I’m reading elsewhere, the specifics of your meandering are a little too precise to be accidental. There is scuttlebutt of there being a shit ton of these in inventory and the manufacturer considering civvy sales to absorb the product. It’s been a while since your post- Can you add anything to the rumor mill now? If so, thanks!!! |
