Agent47 Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Some random thought popping into my head - while these IR Scopes cost quite a bit of money, there's always some airsofter(s) who's got gobs of money or good connections that may have one of these monsters...but what's your opinion anyways?

W.K.Shuridys Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Night vision scopes aren't really common around here. A few guys have cheap monoculars and one guy has a pricey headet, but nothing weapon mounted. They are allowed in all games. However a passive infrared device is unheard of. The cheapest USED one I've seen on Ebay was over $5,000, and an actual IR weapons sight runs around $25,000. Not something you're likely to have to worry about. Link to post Share on other sites
O_RLY?.YA_RLY! Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 They would waste all their money on the IR Scope and have no money left for the gun. So yeah it would be fair Link to post Share on other sites

Moriquende Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 A field with lots of tall grass and some forest would be nice Link to post Share on other sites
TerranCmdr Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Isn't the poll backwards? Shouldn't it be yes, let them have the advantage if they want? In any case, I voted no. "Would you ban IR scopes on airsoft fields? - No" I would allow them. Link to post Share on other sites

SFOD-D Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 I usually don't play in darkness, so I don't care. Link to post Share on other sites
MooCow Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 i wouldnt... just play with it... that person's probably too worried they'll scratch the NV body to something... this is where you use your tac lights to strobe him with... messes with the NV contrast and makes it real hard for him to focus his aim and basically you'll ###### him off by doing so and he'll not use it again Link to post Share on other sites
W.K.Shuridys Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Uh, no. We're talking about INFRARED scopes, not image intensifiers (ie. night vision). Bright lights and strobes will do nothing to affect a thermal imager. Link to post Share on other sites
PariahWolf Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Uh, no. We're talking about INFRARED scopes, not image intensifiers (ie. night vision).
