Overview of Dual PVS-14 Bridge Mounts Asgard, IC D-14, D-14LW, NPBM, PBM

These 5 bridge mounts offer a variety of unique features for dual mounting PVS-14s and they're each under a $800! A big THANK YOU to Nicole May @Mod Armory and Augee Kim @TNVC!
*Disclosure: The Asgard, D-14 Gen2, D-14LW, and PBM were sent to me at no charge to make this video. Everything was returned after the video was completed except for the D-14 Gen 2. I decided to purchase it to replace my D-14 Gen 1.*

    Probably too late to add this comment, but it would be interesting to see a review of the Norotos DDA bridge. It's $185 by itself, but requires 2 DDAs. Probably not optimal by the standard of these other bridges, but still an intriguing design for anyone that may already have 2 DDAs on hand.

    👍 If you start looking at binos again, I’d pass on the -15 and only do the -31 if you’re dead set on it. You can get a bino like the NVD-BNVD or DTNVG/DTNVS for WAY less $ than the -31 with diopter adjustment so you can get clear focus.

This seems like a poor design, do the inherent issue of sustained battery life, but then again, there's always the battery pack. I'm now trying to find the best 14 for the money, any suggestions?

It probably cuts the AA down to 20 hours for both -14’s. It’s tough to recommend where because so many dealers are back ordered. I’d look at JRH Enterprises & Night Goggles. They’re both offering XLSH tubes and you can get new -14’s with XLSH white phosphor for $2,500-$2,700 which is a decent price. Tell them you’re getting them to run as a pair so they match them.

    Can you remove one of the arms of the IC/D-14 Lightweight for use with a single pvs-14? I plan to get one pvs-14 initially then add another down the road. If an arm can be removed then reinstalled I could use it with one nod then reinstall the second arm and add the second pvs-14 when that time comes. Thanks for the vid.

Budget "new" PVS-14 w/ Gen3 equivalent I'm seeing is just a tad over 2k? See AGM for about 2400-2500, Gear Central Supply has a setup w/ Omni 7 tubes for 2500.

Most of the gen 2+ that’s out there will have much lower performance and can be Russian gen 2 or Photonis gen 2 (they make other tubes). Night Goggles and Night Vision Inc have PVS-14’s with Echos for around $2,500. If you’re on the AR15.com forum, in the equipment exchange night vision section there are a couple gen 2+ for sale under $2k.

    I'm not sure if the NVM rail will work as is or if you'll have to modify it to work with MUM rail interfaces but that's the only option I know of - dual bridge mounts with MUM rail interfaces. The D-14 you can order with Breach arms which use a MUM style interface. Wilcox and KVC also have MUM style interfaces you can use with them but they are an additional price.

    That's how we got started with one -14, then a 2nd and dual bridge mount. We'd each run a -14 and I would bridge them together when it was just me. Then we went into another -14 and then another and then ended up with binos. Long of the short is that dual -14's are a great way to gradually get into a dual tube device versus spending all of the money at once on binos, however, you will most likely end up with binos. So, it's worth skipping ahead to binos IMO if you can do it. I still like running dual -14's but a dedicated lighter goggle is more comfortable. The weight of dual -14's is too much for most people. I've talked to a few guys who've run white & green together and they said the primary color they see is whichever one is over their dominant eye. I wouldn't gamble on it personally and just go for well matched tubes with the same phosphor color.

    wolf0060 Dedicated binos are a better system for dual tubes but dual -14’s have their place. It’s an easier stepping stone for some people to slowly work their way from a single -14 to two with the bridge and then later possibly putting them into a binocular housing. I would use the QD D-14 often to quickly detach a -14 for videos & pics. They’re also great for preparedness individuals for the redundancy of two complete operational monoculars. If I could only do dual -14’s or a bino, I’d personally go with dual -14’s, for the ability to split them up. The Mod-3 is a good option also for being able to split them up.

    wolf0060 10-4, I see where you’re coming from. Not every dealer is accommodating but I suppose if one was willing to do it, you could send them the -14 and they could eyeball a match for it. Is it an L3 or ITT tube? One issue with dual -14’s with ITT tubes (aka Elbit, old Harris) is when the time comes to go into a bino housing you’re limited to ones with gain control. Some dealers will do the modifications to make it work inside a no-gain housing. The L3 tubes have removable pigtails so you can use them in any housing. If you won’t have a need to split them up, honestly going with the DTNVG is the better option if you can spring it
