Yep, all shit and I dont know how they get away with calling it gen 3.
The difference between real gen 3 and that stuff is literally night and day.
Most of the stuff I have had a play with off the civilian market needs tons of ambient light or IR light backup.
Dont get me wrong some of it is good gear but was phased out of military use in the 80's.
Really just trying to point out there is a huge difference in what the military uses and what is available in Nz for general sale.
