Helmet mounts let you scan for hogs and coyotes hands-free, with your thermal or night vision in front of your eye and both hands on the rifle or a call remote. This category covers the mounts, arms, bridges and shoes that connect a monocular or binocular to a helmet.
The L4 G24 style helmet mount attaches to your helmet's front shroud and holds the device in front of your eye. The J-arm shoe/arm for PVS-14 style monoculars connects a monocular to that mount.
A night vision bridge mount holds a binocular, or two monoculars side by side, on a single mount. We carry the RQE KVC Universal Mono / Bino Bridge, the SKEETIRx Binocular Bridge System and the M24 Flir Recon Bino / Mono Bridge System.
Shoes adapt a specific optic to a standard mount: the iRayUSA MINI Series Dovetail Shoe, the iRayUSA RICO Micro Pictail 2 Helmet/Weapon Shoe (AC59-T), which also works on a rifle, and the RIX Mount for STRIDE Series BM-01.
To build a setup, start from the optic: find the shoe or arm made for it, then pick a helmet mount and, for two-eyed viewing, a bridge. You'll need a helmet with a front shroud; our bump helmets are built for this. Browse thermal monoculars and binoculars to pick the optic.
You can, with a bridge mount. A bridge holds two monoculars side by side on a single helmet mount, so you see with both eyes. The RQE KVC Universal Mono / Bino Bridge on this page takes a binocular or two monoculars, and it attaches to a front-shroud mount such as the L4 G24 style helmet mount.
Most people put it over the eye they aim with, though some prefer the other eye so their naked eye keeps its night vision. Try both on a few stands before you settle. A J-arm can be set up for either side, so the J-arm shoe on this page lets you move the monocular to whichever eye works for you.
Some can, with a shoe built for both. The iRayUSA RICO Micro Pictail 2 shoe (AC59-T) on this page works on a helmet mount and on a rifle, so one RICO Micro can scan from your head and then move to the gun. A PVS-14 style monocular needs its own rifle mount, since the J-arm here is made for the helmet.
