Using Night Vision Goggles (oh my god)

1,781 Ashdenpaw1  5 months ago

so.

Last night I used old SWAT NVG goggles mounted on a helmet my friend owns in a nerf war, we all used retired SWAT gear and grenade props and modded nerf guns that hurt like hell unless you have something protecting you.

I was given the modded nerf pharaoh

We went to a forest near my house and started.
I was told I was the scariest, and you knew I was getting close when you could see two dim green lights staring at you.
Someone else brought their own UV binoculars and they could see a bright white light coming from my goggles, but I too could see them, and it revealed their location. In the end it was all against me.

Overall, fun experience.

note that NVG goggles can be disorienting and can be hard to use for people with motion sickness

    @Graingy
    A musket: “ A musket is a muzzle-loaded long gun that appeared as a smoothbore weapon in the early 16th century, at first as a heavier variant of the arquebus, capable of penetrating plate armour.[1] By the mid-16th century, this type of musket gradually disappeared as the use of heavy armour declined, but musket continued as the generic term for smoothbore long guns until the mid-19th century.[2] In turn, this style of musket was retired in the 19th century when rifled muskets (simply called rifles in modern terminology) using the Minié ball (invented by Claude-Étienne Minié in 1849) became common.[3] The development of breech-loading firearms using self-contained cartridges (introduced by Casimir Lefaucheux in 1835) and the first reliable repeating rifles produced by Winchester Repeating Arms Company in 1860 also led to their demise.[4] By the time that repeating rifles became common, they were known as simply "rifles", ending the era of the musket.”
