We want to begin with a very classic scope with the night vision feature. This model is based on a well-designed scope with standard 30-mm ring mounting and a 4K ultra-sensitive sensor that provides you with Full HD videos in 30, 60, or 120 fps, and from 5 to 20 times magnification. With the help of this scope, you can stream and record video simultaneously. Just connect it to your mobile device using wi-fi or Bluetooth. Plus, video can be recorded automatically thanks to the recoil activation. The battery life is also good and it’s about 18 hours from one charge. In addition to this, you can enjoy the following features: a ballistic calculator, smart range finder, and recoil resistance.

#2 Pulsar Digex N455 Digital Night Vision Riflescope

The next up is also in the shape of a classic scope with a decent range of advantages but a little bit more expensive. This model provides you with an HD sensor that allows you to records 1280x720p videos and to detect living objects at a distance of 1970 yards (around 550 yards at night), with the help of magnification that scales from 4x to 16x. What is good about this model is that it offers plenty of useful features, such as picture-in-picture mode for better aiming, 5 shooting profiles with 50 zeroing distances, 10 reticle options, and remote operation. Besides, it’s protected by the IPX7 waterproof rating.

Here we’ve got a separate NV system for your rifle scope. Just attach it to your scope to obtain a laser rangefinder feature and a 550-yards nighttime detection range. The device is lightweight and it’s equipped with an IR camera and a 3.5-inch LCD to record and view videos. In addition to this, the system is waterproof. The downside of this model is its battery life because it lasts for about 4.7 hours at half of IR power. It’s super easy to use and install this night vision, so it’s a good solution for many shooters.

#4 Pulsar Digisight Ultra N455 Digital Night Vision Riflescope

If you like the idea of combined devices more, then take a look at this great example at a reasonable price. This scope with the night vision module allows you to take down your targets any time of day. The nighttime detection range is 550 yards and the magnification is from 4.5 to 18x. The scope also has a good field-of-view, which increases the accuracy of aiming. It’s possible thanks to the HD CMOS sensor that comes with a 1024×768 AMOLED display, which means you can also record and view videos that will be stored on the internal memory (16GB). You can customize the scope with the help of 5 shooting profiles and 10 different reticle options. Plus, it has the IPX7 waterproof. Unfortunately, the maximum working time is only 8 hours.

#5 ATN NVM-14 Gen.3 Night Vision Monocular Generation III Scope

It’s time to observe something techier and more expensive. This is a high-quality optic that can be used for multiple purposes.

It’s waterproof and it works for up to 40 hours from 1 CR123A or 1 AA battery. Just attach this system to your tool and enjoy powerful night vision.

It’s from the same product series and it also uses a 4K sensor with a dual-core processor, which allows you to record and stream HD videos at the same time (RAV is enabled). The rest of the features are the same, except for magnification that is only from 3 to 14x. It’s a great tool that costs not a lot of money and gives you the opportunity to clearly see at night at a great distance.

#11 SightMark Photon RT 6-12×50 Digital Night Vision Riflescope

SightMark offers good products at a reasonable price. The model we are going to look at is not an exception.
