Ive been to thje Hikmicro event at the oxford gun company, but ideally I want an independant so I can compare different brands.

Thanks, I will be there. Plenty to look at there, however in the hall setting you cant get to try things in a representative environment. Might be able to see 100m from one end of the hall to the other, but it would be nice to see how a small heat source appears at 300-500m

It is an issue. If you have one or two favorites you could ask if they would go with you and allow you to view them outside later in the day. Things get very quiet there after 4pm. It depends on how desperate they are for a sale I suppose.

Good idea.

Take note retailers you would certainly increase your chance of a sale by having a secondary stand out side to test things at distance. You wouldnt buy a new car without a test drive or by just starting it up in the showroom!

Besides Leica and Zeiss (in alphabetic order) which are the best thermal sights for watching (shooting excluded)?
