Night Vision Depot PVS-14 Gen 3P Night Vision Monocular
If you need a night vision monocular that is rugged, lightweight in design, and offers a strong variety of uses then you should consider the PVS-14 Generation 2 SD MG Night Vision Monocular. Not only is this particular monocular widely used and accepted by US Military personnel, but it has received wide acclaim from a variety of other groups including professional security and amateur hunters and other night vision enthusiasts. In fact, it is so highly regarded by the US Military that there are more PVS14 models in use in NATO Armies than any other night vision device on Earth. This is a true testament to the skill and build quality of the PVS14 Generation 2 SD MG. Regardless of what your specific night vision interests may be, if you are looking for a strong choice in night vision optics and want an easily hand held monocular that is worth its price and has a strong value, the PVS14 is the perfect monocular for you.
Not only does the PVS Generation 2 offer a high quality Generation 2 SD image intensifier tube which delivers crisp green pallette image, but it also offers the user variable gain control. This is critical for achieving maximized picture quality as it allows you to adjust the brightness tube in carefully for a more precise contrast - this will, in turn, make the image quality substantially better. Think of variable image control kind of like scoping with a binocular, it allows you to slowly adjust your brightness until you find an image that is palatable; it will be an image you can stare at for a long time, making surveillance and other night vision operations simple and streamlined.
The PVS14 Generation 2 SD MG does not have to be hand held. It can also be head mounted, helmet mounted, and even weapons mounted if you want. It can also be connected to a camera or video camera for recording capabilities.

Delivery Time and Manufacturing Process for Armasight PVS-14 SD MG Night Vision Monocular:
Most of our manufacturers do not keep products like Armasight PVS-14 SD MG Night Vision Monocular assembled on the shelf. Night Vision tubes are kept separate from the body of the unit. When the order is placed, the manufacturer starts the order processing and assembly process which includes the following:
- Order processing - we collect all the necessary information including address and phone numbers. We also make sure that our customer ordered the correct product for their needs and that the product can be exported by US law to the country of destination. In some cases a signed export compliance form is required.
- QC - in this step the manufacturer will inspect all individual parts which will be used to assemble the night vision device for any defects.
- Production & Assembly - during production, all the parts are put together. Night Vision tubes in inserted into the body of the unit and all the complex electronics for the device are connected. This process takes place in a special lab called the "clean room" as even a small speckle of dust can cause undesired optical effect.
- QA - one the night vision device is assembled, it goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure it meets all the expected specifications and all parts function as expected. For this most manufacturers have a special "dark room" designed to allow testing of the units without causing incidental damage to the night vision tube by exposure to bright light.
- Packaging - this is a key process as well. In most case your night vision device will be shipped to you directly from the manufacturer but sometimes needs to be sent to us first. In either case items need to be packaged securely to avoid any kind of damage during transportation.
- Shipping - as described above items will most of the time ship from the manufacturer. For most domestic orders (unless shipping to POB or AFB) a premium shipper like FedEx or UPS will be used.
Only by following the above steps can we along with our manufacturers bring you - our customer - night vision products of highest quality, However as you can understand the above process can take several days to complete. For example if your device fails QA, the entire process restarts. Also at QC stage a manufacturer may realize that the tube they have in stock has a defect and a replacement tube needs to be ordered. Due to the complexity of this process, it is prudent to expect 3-4 business days for production and handling of the purchased device. Keep in mind that this process is designed to guarantee your satisfaction with the night vision device of your choice. It occasionally possible to expedite the process for urgent orders but addional fees or other restrictions may apply.
