Hungarian PPN-3 Night Vision Scope, Surplus
The Hungarian version of the Polish Gen 1 night vision device that was originally designed for the PKMN machine gun. However, it fits all eastern bloc guns that have a side rail, such as the AK-47 and Dragunov. An exactly similar huge lump with apocalyptic image quality that makes your life equally miserable. Comes with a storage case.

The Hungarian version of the Polish Gen 1 night vision device that was originally designed for the PKMN machine gun. However, it fits all eastern bloc guns that have a side rail, such as the AK-47 and Dragunov. An exactly similar huge lump with apocalyptic image quality that makes your life equally miserable. Comes with a storage case.
Features
These come with either a metal or wooden storage box, the color of which may vary to some extent. The one thing that is always inside is the scope. Originally, there was also a canvas pouch, a battery, spare lenses, and other spare parts in their own pouches, and a booklet but these are often missing entirely or in parts, so take them as nice surprises. The battery is never included, so you don’t have to be surprised in any way when it comes to that.
The gen 1 night vision devices came into use around the time of the Vietnam War. The image quality is utter crap if you are used to modern fancy la-di-da image intensifiers. Very blurry around the edges and only sharp in the middle. However, it will create that lovely post-nuclear holocaust Stalker world for you.
Note! Don’t ever use these in daytime conditions. And really don't stare at the sun with these. That can be very unhealthy.
Size info
This is one huge contraption. It weighs c. 3.7 kg (8.15 lbs) and the length is 54 cm (21.3”). With the box it is around 20 lbs, or even more depending on the box material and what’s included.
Condition
Used Hungarian military surplus the condition of which varies. The metal box can have rust, the wooden box dents, scratches and such, the metal bits patina and oxidization, and the canvas and leather bits (when included) stains. These just make the device more convincing. We haven’t tested these but the supplier says that they should work if you find a suitable battery or use your electric wiz skills to create one. The internet is your friend. Because these are old, we cannot guarantee that they will work forever. But if they don’t work when you get them, please contact us and we’ll work from there.
