[quote="General Tso":f5958]"The Sturmgewehr 44 could also be fitted with ZF 1229 Vampir, an infra-red night sighting device. The scope for the Vampir mounted onto the StGw 44 weighed 2.3kg, the support devices were carried in a rucksack and weighed 13kg. 310 of these night-fighting scopes were produced at the company Leitz."

Interesting, but not enough of them were produced to make a difference.

It would be hellacious on Snowy Park with one of those scopes... evil:[/quote:f5958]

if there was one it was probably crap like the early Us scopes in 'Nam.
(ie only good to about 100 yards)
