Photo 57 of 78, US XM21 sniper (308NATO, M118 match)

The original starlight was the AN/PVS1, the scope shown is an improved model, the AN/PVS2 which was a bit smaller & lighter but still a lg, heavy setup but it did away w/the need for a seperate battery pack & long cable that the AN/PAS4 IR set required (remember these are 1st generation items, & they're almost 40yrs old!) so it was a definite improvement, especially the part about being undetectable!
