Sightmark Debuts its First Hybrid Night Vision Riflescope

March 31, 2014 by Eric Davis 1 Comment

Sightmark® Debuts its First Hybrid Night Vision Riflescope

Sightmark out of (MANSFIELD, TEXAS)  – released the Photon 5×42 Digital Night Vision Riflescope. They took a daytime riflescope, removed the objective lens, and replaced it with a cutting-edge night vision attachment.

The unit comes complete with a CCD sensor and built-in infrared illuminator and it is also capable of vivid daytime viewing.

“Though around the same price point as Generation 1 night vision products, the Sightmark Photon 5×42 delivers twice the range of observation compared to Gen 1,” said Sightmark President James Sellers.

Featuring a Dot-Duplex reticle for quick target acquisition of fast-moving targets and a 5x magnification for vivid detailing, the Photon 5×42 is ideal for hog and varmint hunting. Users have the ability to capture everything seen, day or night, with the unit’s video output feature.
