• Steiner Predator Binoculars – Count on Them!

    Jul 30 • News • 3715

    The Steiner 8×30 Predator Binoculars are light-weight, yet their built feels like a tank. Holding them is a pleasure because the durability and solid construction is instantaneously obvious. They are very functional and the affordable price makes it a great deal. The predator coating effectively phases out green foliage and visually emphasizes brown and red. This feature is exceptional for hunters and birders who need high-contrast lenses to spot wildlife. In addition, 8×30 magnification is optimal for these hobbies.

    It is a common misconception that more is better, but for hunting and birding that is not the case. Do not be fooled into buying 10x and higher magnification binoculars unless you are planning on using a tripod. The magnification with the 10x power pair will be higher but you will not be able to stabilize the binocular to get a clear image. The 8×30 version allows you to hold the binoculars in your hands or hang it around your neck using a binocular neck strap. You can even place the lightweight binoculars in your coat pocket. Focusing time is eliminated because this Steiner 8×30 Binocular pair features German-engineered auto focus technology. Aesthetically, Steiner binoculars offer an unmistakable profile that has become a custom after decades of use by the US Armed Forces.

    All Steiner products offer quality and durability to its users. For all current Steiner promotions please visit the Steiner Rebates page.

  • ATN Night Spirit Gen 2+ Upgrades and Delivers

    Jul 30 • News • 5306

    ATN Night Spirit Gen 2+ Upgrades and Delivers

    There has never been a better time to try out the ATN Night Spirit Gen 2+ night vision monocular because now it comes standard with a 3X magnification lens. This is a significant improvement over the original specification which included only a 1X lens. Additionally, you can acquire the optional 5X lens for maximum magnification. While this modification will certainly increase the detail of what is seen, the old adage concerning Night Vision is remains true: additional magnification will not let you see farther. The reason is that NVDs project an image in front of your eyes, like a television screen. Holding a magnifying glass to a TV will let you see in more detail, but it will not let you see deeper into the picture. Do not listen to anyone that tells you otherwise; they are just trying to get you to buy.

    This monocular by ATN is unusually durable, water resistant , and the dim infra-red illuminator is a nice touch for total darkness. Night vision super-magnifies a small amount of light which means there needs to be some sort of light source. When there is none, the attached infra-red serves as a nearly undetectable light source as long as you do not shine it directly into someone’s eyes. Overall, this ATN Night Vision Device is a great monocular for someone looking for a gen 2 product.

    Here are a few more strengths of the ATN Night Spirit:

    • Very affordable relative to competitors
    • Camera adaptable
    • 3X lens with optional 5x lens
    • CD is included with genuinely useful information and tutorial

    Keep in mind that 2nd Generation NVDs are generally used for law enforcement and other professional functions. Before purchasing this product, make sure that it fits your needs. Although Gen 1 products are less powerful than their Gen 2 counterparts, they are the most widely used Night Vision devices. You have heard the famous expression before: “The right night vision monocular for the right person!”

  • Steiner 10X26 Predator Pro Binoculars 236-The Ultimate in Sport Optics

    Jun 30 • News • 3114

    You are going hunting. You picked the perfect day, your license is current, and your firearm is ready. You double check your equipment and everything is in order. Despite your preperation, you come home empty-handed. Has this ever happened to you? It does not have to. You will have a significantly easier time finding game with the Steiner 10×26 Predator Pro Binoculars 236.

    How do these binoculars actually help you? The Steiner Predator Pro Binoculars have some of the strongest contrast-creating PC-5 coating available. When you peer through them, the foliage blends into the background, effectively emphasizing your targets. Unless you are hunting green parrots or iguanas (which I am assuming you are not), you will have no trouble sighting game. This gives you an enormous edge over other hunters.

    The Steiner Predator Pro Binoculars are a great choice even if you are not going hunting. Take them hiking, climbing, or sight-seeing. They are remarkably light-weight, convenient, and durable. They come with a Steiner Guarenteed Limited 10 Year Warranty. Trust me, you will not be needing it. These German-made binoculars have a strong aluminum housing and are covered with rugged armor that gives them a firm grip. They come with a very protective carrying case for maximum durability. I also love the fact that the focus knob is big, which lets your turn it even if your fingers are freezing and numb. Did I mention that they are waterproof? That is right, the Steiner Predator Pro Binoculars are the ultimate companion for all your adventures.

  • Lighting the Tactical Way: SureFire Flashlights

    Jun 26 • News • 3025

    When it comes to industrial strength flashlights, no one compares with SureFire.  Compact, rugged, powerful, reliable, and efficient, Surefire flashlights have every desirable characteristic a police officer, emergency personnel, or outdoor professional could ask for. If it’s good enough for people whose lives depend on SureFire’s performance, believe me, it’s good. 

    SureFire 6P Original Compact Flashlight

    You’ll be surprised how something so small can produce so much light! Imagine 65 lumen eminating out of a 5.20 inch compact flashlight. It’s pretty intense. But, it’s nothing when you use the P61 ultra high-output lamp which will nearly double the brightness to 120 lumen. It’s definitely bright enough to use for self defense and tactical purposes, as well as for daily use. Don’t forget to add these flashlight batteries to your order: Surefire 123A Lithium Batteries.

    SureFire G3-BK Nitrolon Xenon Tactical Flashlight

    At 6.50 inches, the SureFire G3-BK Nitrolon fits in the palm of your hand. It’s only a little larger than the 6P, but the additional size definitely packs a punch. This tactical flashlight outputs at 105 lumen, making it one of the brightest flashlights available for its size. It’s fun to see just how far this light will shine, but don’t get carried away. As if this wasn’t enough, output nearly doubles when you use the P91 ultra high-output lamp to 200 lumen. Like the 6P Original Compact Flashlight, it’s useful for self defense, tactical purposes, or daily use. You will need these flashlight batteries to operate: Surefire123A Lithium Batteries. Happy shining!

    SureFire G2 LED Flashlight

    This one is my personal favorites because it is one of the best LED Flash lights available. The SureFire G2 LED Flashlight is capable of producing up to 80 lumen of light using a nearly indestructable LED light. Here’s the beauty. There’s no filament to burn out, so this light will last for thousands of hours. Think about it, you’ll never have to spend money replacing the bulb, and you know you won’t get caught in an emergency without a working flashlight. That is, if you have batteries. Speaking of which, for long lasting use, pair the G2 light with the Surefire 123A Lithium Batteries.

  • Trying out the ATN Aries Night Vision Scope

    May 8 • News • 3550

    Looking to experiment with a new Night Vision Riflescope? Then your best bet is the ATN Aries MK390. This ATN rifle scope is perfect for people new to night vision technology. I had a chance to play around with this recently and was very pleased with the performance. It’s very easy to use, the battery lasts a good long time and I had no problems seeing what I was targeting.

    This ATN Scope is an Aries MK390 Paladin Generation 1 Night Vision Riflescope and it’s capable of shooting 100+ yards on medium sized game in complete darkness. Perfect for the hunter who is on a budget that doesn’t want to spend thousands on a simple night vision device. It’s at a price point that ensures the best quality in night vision optics.

    It has the most powerful IR system on the market for a 1st generation night vision scope, so your target will be bright and crisp enough for you to see clearly in the dark . I had no problems mounting it to my weapon (good height for an AR-15) and was simple to learn how to operate.

    This particular ATN Aries Scope has more applications than just hunting. It’s perfectly suited for law enforcement and military uses. High quality ATN construction ensures that it’s built to last, even after heavy use in the field.

    I’ve had a lot of experience with ATN Night Vision products and they’ve never let me down yet. The quality of workmanship is unparalleled compared to other consumer grade night vision devices. ATN Optics are simply the best on the market. I’ve never had any problems with ATN rifle scopes and I look forward to playing around with what they have coming out next.
