MGA – Manual Gain Articulating Night Vision Binocular
The MGA (Manual Gain Articulating) Night Vision Goggle is a rugged, full-featured dual-tube night vision binocular engineered for professionals who demand performance in the harshest environments. Built on the battle-tested RNVG-A housing platform, the MGA adds manual gain control for enhanced image refinement in varying light conditions.
Machined from lightweight yet incredibly strong 7075 billet aluminum, the MGA is designed to exceed real-world operational demands. In rigorous testing, this housing surpassed MIL-STD-810H military drop test standards, enduring impacts onto concrete from heights beyond the failure point of most image intensifiers and optics.
Key Features:
- Manual Gain Control: Rotary switch integrates both power and gain adjustment, giving users precise control over image brightness in dynamic environments.
- Integrated IR Illuminator: Push-button activated, with visual indicators in the eyepiece to alert users when the IR is on or when battery is low.
- Flexible Power Options: Powered by a single onboard CR123 battery or an external battery pack via a secure 4-pin LEMO-style connector.
- Articulating Optical Pods: Adjust interpupillary distance from 47mm to 80mm+. Each pod independently pivots up and out of view to allow unaided vision or preserve natural light adaptation.
- Auto Shutoff Functionality: Optical pods shut off automatically when rotated up or stowed flat against a helmet, reducing light spill and power usage.
- User-Adjustable Tension: Easily modify swing tension with included Pivot Spanner Tools or a standard coin.
- Tube-Safe Assembly: No flex cable removal required—preserves tube warranty and prevents cable damage during build.
Built for Durability:
- Finish Options: Available in Flat Black (hard anodized) or Flat Dark Earth (Cerakoted over anodizing) for a durable, low-reflective finish ideal for tactical operations.
- Tactile and Non-Reflective: All surfaces are media-blasted for a non-glare matte texture, ensuring operational concealment in low-light or combat conditions.
Whether you’re in law enforcement, military, search and rescue, or civilian night vision applications, the MGA delivers a robust, customizable solution with advanced articulation, enhanced user control, and battlefield-proven reliability.
