What to bring to an Night vision class

[@contentcop]

Also tech tip from a outdoor blue collar worker and hunter: rubber banding a hot hands to your shins/ankles (depending on boots) will keep your feet,legs and jewels very warm.

[@KineticConsulting]

Solid advice 🤘🏽

Amazon also sells some usb chargeable hand warmers that look like a computer mouse. Those things are amazing in your pockets. They last for like 16 hours and put off solid amount of heat.

[@contentcop]

@jrgfox I'm still hooked to the old zippo lighter fluid ones. We have DOZENS between my dad, grandpa and I lmao

As someone who just finished roughly setting up their NV rifle, helmet and is looking for a class this is what I need.

[@SmithandWessonBlazer]

From our class in Goldendale I would recommend people to bring a sense of urgency and range walk 😂

[@Argentum7756]

Always wear wool layers, preferably Merlino Wool, rather than cotton unless it's a ridiculously hot summer night. Even when wet wool will maintain warmth. I've frozen my ass off so many times outside I have peripheral nerve damage. It pays to be prepared.

Handouts: “… also, no”. lmfao 😂 Best part of the video Jon! Also love the aim small in training reminder. I catch myself not doing that too often, need to focus more on that aspect during trainings. I think I just found my 2023 resolution. 🎉

John Lovell talks about wearing a a plate carrier to get the feel for something "new". Good advice for both, new kit, and getting your helmet squared (approx. 3:00). As for the headlamp, I keep it snug on my neck. Don't let it flop around in case you forget it's while you do a drill. Also, love the Princeton on my helmet. Great video!!!

Timely and helpful video. I’m attending a 2 night NV course this weekend at Fort Scott, KS with Kris Paronto.

Always enjoy a good Duffy video.

Solid content Duffy.... looking forward to Weaponized Geometry

[@Skidjit]

“Change your socks.” The classic Army advice. ❤

[@PandemicGameplay]

When are you going to do some NV classes in NC? I saw you had weaponized geometry classes but we need some good NV instructors! Good stuff.

[@KineticConsulting]

I need to find a range that allows it.

[@PandemicGameplay]

@@KineticConsulting check out Hyatt Farms Shooting Complex outside of Charlotte. They have big outdoor ranges for tactical classes.

[@nonyabusinessinc]

who makes those those sf velcro covers?

[@KineticConsulting]

Shooter 101

[@DontDoDaylight]

Thanks, sir!

[@m118lr]

Thought when I 1st heard about the (professional) ‘tampon’ tip..I THOUGHT that’s just smart man. Perfect for plugging a bullet hole..obviously combined with other Celox, chest seal(s), etc. Great breakdown..

[@timwilliamanderson]

What about those eye shields for pvs31s?

[@KineticConsulting]

Those are awesome until you fold the 31s up or out. Then you don't have eye pro.

[@timwilliamanderson]

@@KineticConsulting it doesn’t matter to me I’m too poor for 31s. I’m sad I missed your class in Goldendale this year. It was the same day as my wife’s birthday and we made plans way in advance.

[@KineticConsulting]

@@timwilliamanderson well I'm back next year.

[@timwilliamanderson]

@@KineticConsulting I know :) my friend Mike said it was a really good class and I’m super excited to go

[@ronaldtreitner1460]

carrots, used to give classes and carrots true to the old wives tales are good for your vision, or at least to help you see better at night anyway. i'm old school before everyone had night vision gear but i assume a real good tactical flashlight or something will greatly ruin someone's night wearing such gear.

[@impulse1914]

Modern NVGs have auto-gating. Bright white lights don't really do anything to the NVG user.

[@NestorNegronDiaz]

How about bringing some darkness?

[@jammbbs1688]

Well first of all if you don't have atleast 1 working eye or more otherwise it's just a course

[@nuneze23]

So make sure to bring your three day pack for all the shit you’re gonna need 😂

[@RoscoMfg]

Cookies....all the cookies

[@petrikupiainen]

It' a harm I don't live in USA. I have I have travelled there of course. Perhaps you'll have a glass by internet one day. Anyway taking a glass would be interesting 👍
