My IRs got broketed... and never found any NVGs that are affordable, and/or not too flimsy to use in airsoft. ( I do have a toy, that mimics the NVGs... but it's not all that... small viewing area, unable to secure it to head/face to use ... depth way off vision wise.)

I played one Zombie game at night out in OK.
It was not very fun... everyone had light sticks, or Chems... red lasers everywhere, and flashlights...
I stayed in the back just beyond the starting area. I shot "zombies" as I could clearly see their chem lights bobbing around at around 200' or so... none of them ever got close to me, I didn't even get to use my side-arm in that event.
I wound up leaving early, because it wasn't a challenge, and seemed more like shooting ducks in a dark gallery.

0400 hrs. Assault on Colville. Need I say more? ;)

Could you imagine what the Colville assault would be like if tracer units were on the gear list for EASTWIND? Simply awesome.

So right after I posted that I hooked up with a JG tracer unit. It rocks!!! I also like using lasers at night, since for some reason I've turned into a really lousy shot.

Shooting my guns with these gadgets at night is incredibly fun, but I don't hit anymore people at night than I do in the day (which is basically zero). But it's more fun to try. xD

My biggest problem is that I can't see kuso at night!!! Either the moon's reflecting off my eye pro or it's just too freaking dark! Spray 'n pray is about all one can do.

I will now look into night vision...
