Mine is now selling for $400 less than when I bought it, and even then, I paid about $250 less than it was originally listed at. https://www.atncorp.com/thermal-scope-t ... 4-1-25x-5x

When I bought mine, list price was $1999, and I paid $1729 for it. Now the list is $1799, and I’m seeing it for $1599 on OpticsPlanet.com. They’re cool, but they’re not the be all end all.

I was so close to getting one just because of what they are, there bad to the bone! Does it always show your GPS location or anything incriminating? I know that sounds like a weird question but my privacy means a lot to me no matter what some people say:" if you have nothing to hide what does it matter'. Hate that saying

Unless you connect your scope to your phone, I think it would be like a regular unconnected digital camera. I don’t think it has a built in GPS. It does have a date/time stamp in the picture, but I’m pretty sure that can be switched off. This is a video made with my scope in a public park in Grapevine. It was hand-held and not mounted on the rifle at the time. It was new, and I wanted to see how effective it could be. The time stamp isn’t correct, it was at about 11:00 pm. Although the video doesn’t show it as clearly, I was able to clearly see objects about 150 yards away.
