respectfully its a little academic. red (i think the trend is now for blue nowadays) is fine for a bit of light for admin tasks and so forth. otherwise you are best off just using a normal white light to shoot with. using light to move is just going to get you shot doesn't matter if they have nv...
Bushnell Holosight (made by Eotech), in realtree camo. DOM 2009. Works as should. Minor delam on perimeter of optic, very hard to take photos of, doesn't effect function. Takes 2x N batteries. No box or manual, but can find manual here...
https://www.patrolbase.co.uk/fma-tactical-helmet?srsltid=AfmBOoqRdD-EXWSgkSdS5scvTDwWWzohDnidFjfqIvvOspFSvKXXcbir this is the best out of the box option imo, i one used for a few years. they are very popular for a reason. no offense to the guy above but this version has the proper TW style...
as far as i can tell looking at the FB page it's not so much that tuddenham's banned NVG's but rather doing no-nvg night games in spring/summer where tbh i doubt nods would be that useful with play ending at 22.00. i haven't been in a few years (moved) but back in 2022/23 it was basically nvg...
basically any peq/dbal with an ir illuminator can be focused down. not that you really need to for most cases as you can (ymmv) adjust them so the centre of the circle is where your bbs go.
because, all things being equal, it would mostly allow the bb to travel further, and less importantly for gameplay, faster. not much more to add on top of what i've already said, but if you would like further clarification i will respond in a week or so. thanks
More joules would be amazing, also the principle of going by site owner / event organisers. judgement rather than a legal restriction. Point taken about simplicity at skirmishes and tbf for normal games I think what we have is fine - if I ran a skirmish site I'd be minded to keep them the same...
can still see 940nm, wont be as bright as lower wavelength but its more of a spectrum then a hard cut off

NV/Thermal footage from UCAP gloucester night game last month. I loaned my friend my old NV and kit - it was his first time using NV. Had a great time. Unlike the game I went to in January this had less constraints on where you could go within games, so it was quite free-flowy, less linear, a...
I appreciate the reply. If you don't mind me nitpicking (I want to address your general points not specific):
"the combined goggle system then only meets the lowest of those standards" - this is what PB have done. It seems unfair to then say that "An uninformed new player can read that and...
I certainly don't take a "zero risk" approach but I like to think that I've made a fairly informed decision based on reasonable assumptions about the dangers involved and my understanding of the various certifications (which I am happy to admit is limited, I'm not a professional and to actually...
Yeah fine but just because it doesn't have EN166B doesn't mean the frame will break if its shot by a ~0.9j gun. Most airsoft/ballistic goggles (for example the wolf spiders listed above) won't have a B frame. My point is that we've had accusations of patrolbase being negligent, that these...
