Revolutionary for the era. Hunting in the dark is the real game changer. I think there’s no better example of that than the deadliest sniper of Vietnam, Bert Waldron III, used a similar setup hunting in the Mekong Delta. What’s even more amazing to me is that at the time such a setup would be unavailable to civilians. And look at what we have now. It really is the game changer.
