Is it illegal to own a thermal scope?

No, it is generally not illegal for civilian shooters to own thermal scopes in the United States, although their use may be limited depending on local and state laws.

Are thermal scopes worth it?

For people who want dependable scopes no matter the weather or lighting conditions, thermal vision scopes can absolutely be worth it. They make seeing varmints and people alike easy, allowing for a wide range of applications, like search-and-rescue efforts and hunting.

What is the disadvantage of a thermal scope?

High-quality thermal imaging scopes can offer superior visibility in low-light conditions compared to alternatives like night vision scopes. However, thermal sensor resolution is often not as high as alternatives that use light optics since they focus on heat signatures as opposed to light.

What is IR night vision?

IR stands for infrared. IR night vision technology uses infrared light to improve visibility.

Does higher base magnification inevitably lead to a narrower field of view?

Yes.

What does a ballistic calculator do?

A ballistic calculator can approximate the trajectory of bullets and other projectiles to improve aim for shooters.

How does a thermal riflescope work in detecting heat signatures?

A heat signature is a form of infrared (IR) energy emitted by all living objects. A thermal scope detects IR wavelengths and translates them into an image.

How do thermal scopes work in different weather conditions?

Armasight thermal scopes can work in complete darkness as well as adverse weather conditions like fog and rain. Fog and rain can disrupt light, which can impact the reliability of night vision technology. Thermal technology, however, detects not light but infrared radiation, meaning it does not lose effectiveness during these weather conditions the same way night vision technology does.
