badsworth Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 Thanks to lots of good advice from members of this forum I now possess a Gen 2+ 'add-on' monocular that I will tonight be trying out for the first time. I also have the headmount for it and would like to be able to use it at closish ranges with my SG. Can anyone tell me if quick bursts with a 'non - IR' laser used as a target designator would damage my tube? There is a wounded fox (wounded by a car I think - not me) hiding in local hedgerows. I would like to track it down and humanely despatch it - but I don't want to damage my NV. Badsworth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrelsniffer Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 If you are refering to red/green dot lasers then no it should be ok..have used them in past but one thing to be careful for is muzzle blast if you are using shotgun with NV ? ive already burnt one tube on one of my NV scopes..wasnt a happy chappy.

Mick Mick - that is a really good point - I had not thought of that. I use 50g BBs - there is quite a blast. Thanks for the info.
