That must have been a long drink coz that jokes' been done thousands of times already
When I showed my mate a photo of the person who named the Zulus scope and asked to confirm if it was correct, he said assegai

Never apologise for posting perhaps the finest movie clip from my generation’s finest movie ever J. Makes me smile every time….
Vulpine Mk3. Ok it’s a rear add on but doesn’t affect head position at all. Very basic and on the right scope the image is phenomenal. Well worth a look. I use mine 4/5 nights a week and for various reasons need it to work. Gave up on digital NV 18 months ago after buying the unit.
They will fix it and return or replace it. Unlikely to offer you a refund.

I think the Zulus is hard to beat and you've been unlucky with your particular one, or possibly the fault is related to the fall you had when it fell into the mud

I have often wondered but considering I used it two or three nights a week before and after the fall I'm not so sure its related.I think the Zulus is hard to beat and you've been unlucky with your particular one, or possibly the fault is related to the fall you had when it fell into the mud
The fall wasn't a full on fall, it was more of a slide really but yes fair point and thank you.

I'm sure @ATN UK will be along soon, but ATN don't have a day/night scope directly comparable in size and form to the Zulus
They have the X Sight 5 5-25LRF which has a 4k sensor, the same base mag, LRF and ballistic calculator
It comes with an external IR and overall is much bigger, heavier and substantially more expensive than the Zulus
I'm waiting for an X Sight 5 5-25 LRF to arrive in the next few days when I'll test it alongside the Zulus 5-20 HDR and the Alpex 4k

Those n470 look solid jobs, Ben speaks highly of them, have you any experience with them @mealiejimmy , anyone?
I have one. At night they take some beating. But they are night vision only . Not really useable in the day. They're a big unit too. Also the inbuilt IR eats through the battery in no time at all so you really need an external IR. But , if all you want is a no frills nv unit they take some beating.

Only thing to bear in mind is it'll be twice the weight of Zulus. But for quality of NV it takes some beating.

Just a phenomenal piece of kit! Paired with a wraith torch, wow!!!! No more fiddling about pressing buttons, useable full mag on scope, just focus on the scope & pull the trigger! I was blind, now I can see.
