looking for some thermal monocular advice?
 

Im trying to decide between 2 monoculars and i know absolutely nothing about them other than what ive read, was hoping someone here could chime in.......

Pulsar makes 2 i am interested in 1) https://www.pulsar-nv.com/glo/produc...s/quantum-lite the quantam xq23v, which is discontinued but my local cabelas has one for $1600 and 2)the axion 30 which is the newer model i can get off of amazon for $1500.https://www.pulsar-nv.com/glo/produc...g-scopes/axion

normally i would just default to "newer must be better" and go with the axion but you just never know. On paper the axiom is better, has slightly bigger zoom, etc etc

can someone help tip me in the right direction please
