Anyone have experience with Sightmark night vision equipment?

I came across some night vision equipment from a company called Sightmark. I've never heard of them, but I haven't been looking at night vision stuff that long. Does anyone have experience with their NV products?

Thanks for any replies.

I have none of their optics though I have read from actual owners that they are pleased with their purchases. I do have 4 of their laser boresighters and they've been excellent. Here's a2013 review: http://www.ar15.com/forums/t_6_18/4...ghtmark_Photon_5x42mm_digital_riflescope.html

Two of my ARs wear sight mark reflex sights.

I have one of their nightvision scopes, that has worked well. I use it for hog hunting at night and it has accounted for quite a few. The only problem I have had with it is I lost the filter/lens cap that allows you to sight one in during the daytime. I called them and they sent me an updated version free of charge....couldn't beat that. I have been amazed at how long the batteries last in it, since it is powered by two AA, but it seems to go a long time.

I bought one for my son's AR. It was the the mid priced "zombie" edition. I went ahead and bought it despite my loathing for anything "zombie "
The Z edition holds a zero. Has 4 different reticles. Brightness adj. Quick detach mount. I have had it for at least two years. I don't think I have changed the battery yet.
I used that rifle and sight to kill a coyote from the platform of my combine. I killed the coyote on the run...but also slightly wounded my combine, lol.

When I built my last AR project, I topped it with the high-end sightmark mil-spec sight. It has one reticle and adj brightness. It is waterproof to 40 meters. I like it. It is well built, sturdy and the batteries last.

That is one accurate AR. And great shot. Doubt I could do that on my best day.

My first shot mortally wounded him, but he made a dash for the standing corn. I fired one too many.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll go ahead with them.
