New to Thermal Hunting question on ordering thermal

[firemedic2000]

Hello everyone. I'm new here and have watched the the videos and they are great. I just got into pig hunting. Have not shot one yet. I use MOD3 and a lasers right now but want to buy an Armasight 640 30hz clip on. I use a SCAR 17 and a LWRC SIX8 my buddy uses a thermal so I of coarse I want to add one to my kit. I figure if I'm going to hunt I want one.

I have not hunted in 20 yrs since I got out of the military. I just retired from Fire Rescue and everyone wants me to go. So I'm going now. My question is at this point in time. I read in an earlier post about turn around time with Optics Planet on new orders being really slow.

Does anyone here know if they have gotten any better on filling orders or are they still taking several weeks.

Thanks
Mack

Welcome to ya. I'm sure someone who uses thermal will be along shortly. In the mean time, consider giving ******** at ******************* a holler and pick on his brain a little for some input.

Yes, give ******** (the actual owner of *******************) a call and you'll not be wanting a minimum wage phone jockey guiding your Thermal purchase decisions again.

Like the others said, check with ******** from *******************. Send him a message, E-mail or call him. I got a great price on my Thermals from him. Super fast delivery too.

******** is good to go. Got mine from him

Yes, Optics Planet is really slow when it comes to shipping.
But you "can" get some pretty ridiculous savings if you "call in your order."
I simply asked what's best deal on some small AR Parts.
Lady on phone started knocking off 5-35% off each item. Bringing my overall purchase down significantly. Probably not gonna happen on a Thermal.
I did have to wait a exactly 2 weeks 6 days to get items.
Good luck and kill a pig!!!

theyre great at price matching also... I bought a Trijicon Accupoint 1-6 from them... first I shopped it online and found some company that had it for $965... Optics Planet had it for $1300... They matched it.... all I had to do was show them the online ad

******** (Third Coast) is the best indeed. Just picked up a Reap-IR. Excellent advice.
