Yukon Sentinel 2.5 x 50 Sporting Night Vision Rifle Scope
Yukon Sentinel 2.5 x 50 Sporting Night Vision Rifle Scope
The modern, compact Yukon Sentinel 2.5 x 50 Sporting Night Vision Rifle Scope has
been developed from experience gained from the successful NVRS series.
Manufactured in part from military-grade titanium, the bodyshell is
designed to provide exceptional weight/strength characteristics. Fitted with
high grade Gen 1 tubes, the Sentinel is unique in offering a dual-colour,
variable brightness reticle. You have the choice of either a green or a red
reticle which is based on the Dragunov sniper scope reticle. Internal
windage/elevation adjustments are effected via knobs conveniently placed to the
right of the eyepiece.
The controls of the Sentinel are ergonomically designed and can be
used with gloved hands and in total darkness. Unlike some competitive products,
the power supply is totally silent - a major advantage in a hunting scenario.
The large 50-mm multi-coated front lens provides good light gathering capabilities
while maintaining a compact profile. The ergonomic eyecup makes viewing more
comfortable, while the green glow from the image intensifier tube is shielded
from outside observation. An Infrared (IR) Illuminator is built-in to the right
side of the scope, providing limited range enhanced viewing when the subject is
in shadows or complete darkness. A green LED below the viewfinder indicates when
the Image Intensifier Tube is switched on while a red LED indicates when the IR
Illuminator is in operation.
The Sentinel has been designed specifically
to meet the unique requirements of the UK pest control market to identify and
engage small targets at close range. By adding an internal focus capability to
the design, a much clearer image is available since the target is clearly
focussed on the front of the image intensifier tube. The second major advantage
is that minimum focus is reduced to just 4.0 m.
A Tactical Weaver rail is
fitted on the left side of the unit allowing additional accessories to be fitted
such as the optional 29072 100 mW high-power IR Flashlight/Illuminator, 20076 Red
Dot Laser Sight or even a lightweight gun lamp.
Included with the
Sentinel is a unique remote on-off switch that can be located on the stock or
forepiece of a rifle, thus enabling the shooter to activate the Sentinel and IR
Illuminator without removing their hands from the weapon. A protective case is
included.
The optional 29091 1.7 x Lens Converter is also available which
increases image magnification from 2.5 x to 4.3 x. Minimum focus with this
attached is still only about 8.0 m.
