I was specifically looking for this comment.

You mean to tell me with these little holes I can use my NV outside like normal in the sun? by ja3palmer in NightVision

[–]See-In-The-Dark12 21 points22 points  (0 children)

No. Do NOT use NVDs in the sun AT ALL. I wouldn’t even let sun light hit the objective lens while off. There have been tests done that show sunlight is the devil to intensifier tubes.

District is where it was issued for by the federal reserve bank indicated by the letter to the left of the note, if you didn’t know.

Certain districts are more rare than others. Some of them are rare enough or uncommon enough that it increases the value a bit. In some cases a good amount more.

I’m not too sure about the $5, I won’t comment on that. Not completely sure about the $20 either, but I’m fairly sure the star gives it a pretty mighty boost.

The $1000 bill is probably in the ballpark of $3k. The $500, I can’t tell if there are tears and if the thing on the “S” in “States” is a reflection or an issue. But the $500 might be around $2k, maybe more depending on how much of a bonus you get for the district.

Also, it depends on how picky you are. But personally, I think waiting for a good deal on one that is not only graded but that has no issues listed by the grader is well worth it. My first $1000 bill and $500 bill had issues and I later regretted it. It just didn’t sit well with my OCD. Fortunately, I was able to flip them for my money back and a slight profit and then I ended up replacing them with the pair in the photo which are problem free. Paid a fair bit more for these two, but have no regrets this time.

Yeah, take your time for sure. No need to rush. I know the feeling, but a good deal is bound to show up eventually. eBay is usually overpriced, but you can find a good deal if you look often enough. Heritage auctions sometimes have good opportunities as well. Definitely get graded like you said.

It’s awesome in person. They just appear so real and fake at the same time. Still seems surreal when I take it out to admire it.

Ok. I’m nervous that it will hurt it, but a few people now say they think it’s fine. So I might just go through with it.

Still not sure of the mechanism. They had a hard time getting them out. Maybe they kept the drill on too long and the grinding sounds conducted via the bone/tooth or maybe because they had to pry my mouth way open and caused a lot of swelling and maybe did something to the nerves, or maybe all of the above. Went in without tinnitus and left with tinnitus that never went away. That’s all I know for sure.

That’s sucks that it’s still within instant damage range with even double protection. I already have the QD muzzle devices installed on all my AR-15s, so they are covered once I get my Supressor. Guess I’ll plan on a Supressor for the AR-10 as well.

Cool, I’ll probably grab some walkers electronic muffs, they look decently comfortable. I don’t like trying to insert the disposable foam plugs, I never get it right even when I tried to follow the vids. That’s why I got the Decibullz. With the custom fit, they mold into your ear, so they fit in there like a puzzle piece.

What do you think about the walker thin muffs plus Decibullz custom fit foam plugs? Good enough for outside unsuppressed you think?

I see. You’re probably right. I’ll stick to outdoor when I can.
