    Any Flir 536 users ?

    Good to hear Todd that is not doing anything with FLIR. My CS experience was less than ideal at first, but eventually got two working FLIRs (replacements) and those have worked great. Took a lot of pushing from myself and the dealer. First time around took 2 months to get a working Zeus. Second...

    Flir service

    FLIR sent me an overnight label to return my "repaired" Zeus back that I mentioned in a comment above. I say "repaired" because the they returned it in worse shape and with the same focus problem. They shipped out a new one the same day it was received. The new Zeus has worked flawlessly so far...

    Flir service

    Got my Zeus back yesterday from FLIR service after 5 weeks. They returned it in worse condition. Same serial number, but the focus ring is scratched. The on/off/standby button doesn't line up... and it still doesn't focus... LOL. I originally sent it in because it went out of focus when trying...

    Seeing more now

    I'm seeing a lot more activity too. Been out to my property several times in the past month and have seen hogs each trip. I hear there is a time of year where they are more active (January/February). Seems to be true based on the activity I've encountered lately.

    Two Hogs with Wolf Military Classic FMJ 100 gr. Grendel Ammo

    Enjoyed the video Brian. Looked like a good shot on the 2nd hog. I've had similar experience with FMJ in larger calibers - seemingly well placed shots that didn't stop hogs as expected. Many years ago, I used a Romanian PSL for hog hunting. Very few options for store bought ammo in 7.62x54r...

    Where are all the thermal hunt videos?

    Seriously very wacky weather patterns. I generally setup feeders/blinds to accommodate a southerly wind. Seems most weekends for the past few months had some sort of weather event so the wind direction was not in my favor. Certainly a challenging past few months with the weather.

    First hunt with a Grendel 6.5! Critical failure after two rounds

    I got my first Grendel used from a local LEO here in Houston. It's ran great - one of my few rifles where I don't have to worry about malfunction. Have over 100 rounds through it with zero FTF or jams. Highly accurate too. Shoots tighter groups than my old Bushmaster Varminter. It's been my "go...

    Hog hunting with drone

    I have a Mavic Pro - used it for scouting land when I was on the market for property. Still have it but rarely use it. I did try spotting game at the maximum allowed altitude. Been able to see deer and a coyote, but always spooked them. I tried upgrading the propellers, but the high pitch noise...

    Flir service

    I had to ship my Armasight Zeus into FLIR two weeks ago. Googled where I was shipping it to and saw the location in Nashua, NH is a Raymarine/FLIR facility. Based on what I read on other forums, past places for repair seemed to be in California and I think Oregon. Hoping the place I sent it to...

    Hello from Houston/Coleman

    Thanks for letting me join this community. I've been a lurker for sometime. Really enjoy the posts here. Figured it was time to join and contribute. While I'm an avid deer hunter, my passion is to hunt hogs. I've been hunting for 25 years and acquired my first piece of hunting property last...
