Integrated Mount Universal Night Sight

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

NSWC-Crane has recently procured the Integrated Mount Universal Night Sight (IMUNS) System manufactured by Badger Ordnance as an upgrade to the Mk13 Mod5 .300WM Sniper Rifle.

The IMUNS replaces the current bipod mounting block in the Accuracy International AICS chassis and allows the use of integrated night vision devices such as the A/N PVS-22, A/N PVS-24, and A/N PVS-27. The IMUNS has removable side accessory rails allowing the use of laser aiming devices such as the ATPIAL/DBAL as well as other target aiming/designating systems.

It also allows the day optic to be mounted a full one inch lower, keeping the optical path in line, lowering the overall height over bore, and providing the shooter with a more natural cheek weld behind the rifle.

Badger Ordnance SNAP

Thursday, June 10th, 2010

The new SNAP (Scope, Night vision Adapter, Pocket) interface system from Badger Ordnance is designed to address several problems frequently faced by Military and Law Enforcement sniper/observers. It allows the user to attach a AN/PVS-14 night vision monocular behind a M151 (Leupold Mk IV 12-40x60mm) Spotting Scope.

The SNAP attaches the AN/PVS-14 to the spotting scope using a simple collet design, allowing the user to quickly attach and remove the night vision monocular without the use of any tools, and can easily be manipulated by feel in complete darkness. In addition to weight savings, compact size, and widespread use of the AN/PVS-14, another benefit to the SNAP system is the ability to mount a night vision system behind a magnified optic rather than in front of it. This allows for a crisper image at higher magnification than with most forward mounted systems. The SNAP weighs just 2.2 oz, is constructed of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, and is hard coat Mil Spec anodize finished. Fully compatible with the Laser Interference Filter (LIF), the SNAP can also be used with the AN/PVS-7.
