hi folks i have just bought a .22 cz 455lr with 16"barrel,im using a sak mod with an ns50 night vison,trouble is i get a white glow at the bottom of the screen using the sak mod,that glow goes when i remove the mod,and i get a nice clear picture,im thinking the sak is to chunky,so would a parker hale mod be better since its slimmer?thanks all

Whereabouts are you? Sure someone local to you wouldn't mind you trying their PH to see if it makes a difference

thats a good idea,but i know no one with a ph mod,all the mates use sak,but im the only one in my area with an ns50.might just try get a second hand ph,i can always re sell if it dont suit

If you dont say roughly where you are in the country how is anyone going to try to help you? Have you got a free slot on your ticket to obtain a mod?

A friend of mine has the same problem but on a 222. he has tried to stop this reflection from his mod without any success and has ended up not using the mod which has cured the problem. I haven't seen this setup but surely if there is a reflection the answer must be to move the illuminator to a different angle/place or blank the source and set up a remote illuminator under the barrel line so that the reflection will go in a different direction. Unless I am thinking totally stupid.

I don’t know the unit in question but if there is an IR source on the unit that is illuminating forwards, causing a reflected glare back then why can’t that source have a bit of tape put over it to blank it. Then put a separate source on the gun in a position that wont reflect up off of the mod E.g. down lower.

I liken this to lamping with white light on a night when there is a fair bit of moisture in the air and you get a sort of white out caused by the white light reflecting back off of the water droplets in the air or the lamper gets behind the gun and you cant see through the scope for the mirror image on the scope. In both instances it is a reflected light source that is causing a problem. In both instances the way to resolve the problem is to get the light source away from the visual line to the target and the further the better. It is relatively simple to make an effective black light filter to convert any white light lamp to produce IR light that can floodlight the ground and a target. I’ll ask my mate if he tried anything other than put a matt black silicon sleeve on the mod. Or do like he did and take the mod off.

Fizzbangwhallop :good:

 

PUT A STRIP OF INSULATION TAPE OVER THE BOTTOM 1/4 OF THE SCOPE :rolleyes:

 

 

Yes I,m shouting, not in a nasty way though :) its a question thats asked very very often, Its a very simple fix too.

 

forget about raising the scope, to get rid of the glare it will be a silly height, and a more expensive option, the sunshades will more than likely need to be a sill length too 6" maybe more sometimes,and again an expensive fix.

 

The sock, well i didnt try that, Grandalf gave me a tip years ago suggesting a hair thing that women use called a scrunch. kept loosing it though it worked too.
