The 952V is in widespread big army use, more of a conventional forces light. And honestly the I.R. capability actually doesn't matter too much except for very "narrow" situations. When I had my PVS14 and my PEQ I found I would generally only use the PEQ's I.R. illuminator (heavy duty illum) or the (pretty weak illum) one built in to the PVS 14 Good to know, nice to have knowledge like this on the forum. Looks like the ir illum in a light is not as important. Thanks |

But yeah the biggest pro I could see for having IR on a weaponlight (assuming you have a PEQ-15 of course) would be to pop off the weaponlight and use it as a handheld while using NVGs |

While I have no problem "Skilcrafting" (Kryloning) a gun, especially one that isn't mine, I have yet to try the sponge technique. It definitely yields fantastic results...when done correctly.

I think a light is more important. Were rear sights run with an elcan? I don't see how as you need this thing back pretty far. Better eye relief than an acog but not by much. |

We've seen rear sights and no rear sights with the Elcan. You don't really need it tho as you'll have the rain sights or a Docter/MRDS piggybacked. But I personally would throw a Matech or KAC under it just out of a preparedness/not worried about weight paranoia/train of thought |

I'm sure an elcan is a half pound heavier than that acog too |

Gents, I don't check on this thread too much but figured I'd cross post this from the recce thread to get your take on a rifle seen in a video. Some of you guys are pro detectives on this stuff.
 US soldiers help Iraqi troops secure Mosul Hard to tell but I think it's a Block II M4. Definitely a cool setup with the 3-18 and piggybacked T1. Maybe a DAGR setup?

At that point it's almost a shorter and lighter mk12. Not sure how accuracy would compare past 400m or so though. These barrels are supposedly pretty accurate from what I've seen. |
