Reading through my Trijicon RX01NSN manual it says it's NV compatible and what not. BUT I've seen people say that reflex sights are too bright for NV devices. Can anybody chime in.

It is not...Many years ago I had discussions with Triji on this. The NSN reticle blooms pretty badly.... The meaning of the manual wording really means is the NSN reticle can be used at night, which does not mean with an actual NVD.
Also keep in mind, placing a PVS-14 on the back of a ACOG is not very beneficial as you have to move the ACOG approx. 4 slots forward which makes it unusable with the loooong eye relief.

Thanks for the pic. Yeah the manual says it could be used with current issue NVG'S  and pocket scopes (1997).Then it goes on to saying about using it in combo with weapon mounted IR light sources to increase performance and what not...... The manual is full of lies and deceit! lol
