Can it see a laser boresighter at night? I usually laser bore sight in on my neigbors chimney which is about 50 yards away.
Just to clarify ... all that has actually shipped from ODLG are my wife's anniversary gift. 
That was an automated message generated from ODLG ordering system.
I'm on the list for the Sightmark. But unlike OP, my card hasn't been tagged.
Jason said he only submits charges once the product ships.
And I have to say, there have been several, very kind offers from the TGT contingent.
Thanks each of you.

You sure? He charged me a deposit, 25% IIRC. I had no issue with that.

To the naked eye, in each instance, the laser appeared to be a small red dot, obviously getting larger with distance.
Shown on a white metal surface at @ 40', the laser appeared to be a ghostly white 6" circle through the scope.
Shown on an @ 18" dia. tree trunk at @ 60yds, the laser again appeared ghostly white and was nearly the width of the trunk. I don't see an advantage to sighting in at night.
I appreciate the idea anyhow IXLR8.
So OK. Is this thing worth a shit or not?

That's awesome. That rig must weigh 20 pounds. At what distance did you see the deer in that thermal photo?
What thermal deer photo?

I just made it up. It doesn't exist. It's definitely not at that link he posted.
I did look at the last photo in that group, thought it might have been something else, lol....

At least, maybe two. lol
Haven't field tested mine but I think for the money it will be fine.

The deer in the thermal photo was 75+- yards, we spotted it's ears above the tall grass before she stood-up, I use the thermal camera for spotting while stalking and you can easly see game out to 500 yards, then the sightmark photon takes over.... this combo is very lethal.
After ths weekend, i'm moving this setup to my suppressed Blackout.... even more lethal.
Below is the link to the Therm app i'm using, it was on sale last month for$999.
