If you let me play with your fancy gear I might have a spot
My Gen 1 monocular is effective... as a melee weapon 
I'm in CR area FWIW |

Nothing too fancy, picked up a gen 3 pvs14 with a omni VII tube, Atpial-c, peq2, and a couple cans to round out some clone builds.

I like your style. I'm saving my pennies to put together a similar setup. There is a private range I think I could shoot at after dark, if all weapons were suppressed. A lot of the public ground around me is posted with "no target shooting" signs.

You can shoot anywhere if you are quiet enough
I haven't seen many public ranges that allow or welcome it without prior communication and approval. I only shoot on private ground now so I don't have to deal with all that BS (thankfully) but I would be sure to communicate with wherever you end up (private or public) what you would like to do and when... I've had the cops and/or DNR show up even after my due diligence and it can get a little tense in the middle of the night. Nothing like getting yelled at to walk towards them while wearing a helmet, NVG's and several firearms as they shine a shitty Maglite around.... |

I am also in the Waterloo area, there is a real lack of ranges around here that allow any sort of night shooting. You will always have the DNR breathing down your neck typically. I've wanted to get into NV but the lack of any available ranges keeps me from it.

Tagging this thread. I have NV, beamz and suppressors and really like shooting at night.

Bumping this old thread. Wondering again what opportunities there are for night vision shooting and or training in Iowa.
I just picked up a PVS 30 and would love to stretch it out for longer range shooting. I sent an email to big springs because I thought I remember a hometown night vision shoot there before, but I could be wrong. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: ryan and i did one together through cca and nightlong 5 or 6 years ago. if things were suppressed, i'd do it again at my personal range. or i could ask what big springs would charge me to rent the range at night again. give me some numbers on how many people would attend. |

Big springs replied to my email that they didn't do any nv classes or training and didn't comment about any other night time usage. I would really like to try that 500y range with the pvs30  .Quoted: I was at the CCA/Nightlong night shoot. I would be 100% in for another. There are night vision & thermal rental companies if people are interested in trying out equipment prior to making a substantial investment. |

There did seem to be a good turn out to the event. I never heard how much product Nightlong Industries sold based on the event, but people did turnout and it was fun.

You know I'm in especially if there's anything on the East side. Waterloo, SureShot, works.
