Thermal scopes.

Who has them and what are you running?

I have one in mind but I'm curious to see what you guys might have. I'm looking at the ATN Thor 5 LRF 640 2-16×

Between myself, son and Dad we run Pulsar and RIX. I have heard bad things about ATN customer service but I do not have one. For around the same price you can get into a Rix L3 or L6 which has digital and optical zoom and add the LRF. We have a L6 with the added LRF and haven't had any issues. The Rix can be ballistic calculated also.
Pulsar XG50 LRF
Pulsar XP 50
Pulsar Duo (thermal and day scope)
Rix L3 & L6 with LRF

Optics planet is running a sale now and you can get a Pulsar XQ50 LRF for $3500

I thought about the Rix L6 but I'm not happy with Rix at the moment lol. They were running an affiliate sign-up a couple months ago. Filled out all required information and NOTHING.
I've looked into the Pulsar Thermion and it seemed a good choice as well. I think the XQ50 is above the price point I want to spend.
I've also heard about the customer service issues with ATN and have heard good things about Pulsar. I haven't heard much about Rix other then my issue with a different department of there company. I'm looking for something that will last a long while because I won't be in the market to get another for a long time lol.

I'm currently running a Sightmark Wraith HD that I got used. The only problem I have had with it is where the external power pack plugs in. It's worn out and sometimes wiggles loose and the scope shuts down. Definitely not good when a follow-up shot is needed lol. Thank you for the feedback. I'll check out some of those Pulsar units and see what I can find.
