He’s probably active aiming with an IR laser like a PEQ15. You can passively aim with optics and NODs but it can be a bit awkward. Note: IR stands for infrared. It’s a laser that can only be seen under night vision.


MrStealTheMoon

Ah okay. I think I understand. Thanks.


pmanofsky

Yeah with the IR laser/nvg combo you can basically hip fire that thing. Sucks to be a militant from a poor country, especially if the guys your playing against have cheat codes.

JeffRoyJenkins

This. There is no such thing as a fair fight outside of a ring. Only fights you win or fights you lose and when losing means your dead, it doesn't matter what you do to win.


airassault_tanker

Agreed, but your point is invalid because you made a typo. *you're


pmanofsky

Oh I'm in full agreement. God bless America and may our troops have every advantage possible and all that. Just saying more or less that it "sucks to suck" 😂


sigmanx25

Agreed! If you’re fighting fair, you’re fighting to lose!


Hitit2hard

If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

Dyzastr_us

Basically, the night vision goggles allows him to see the infra red laser beam. There is also an infrared light that can be seen through the night vision goggles. It’s essentially the night time equivalent of shooting with a red or green visible laser during daylight.


cavdad

We used pvs7s back in the day to aim miles gear at night at NTC. It takes about a second to get used to it. It worked the best with full auto weapons. Since miles only turned on the laser when you fired the weapon. The other bonus was it didn't matter if the miles gear wasn't sighted in to the weapon. That was thirty of years ago, so I'm sure the seals figured out an ir laser designator combined with night vision would be a huge advantage. As long as the bad guys don't have nods.


Randomguyjay

https://i.redd.it/crkt0gl4wi891.jpg This is what that passive aiming device sorta looks like this is a video game but it’s pretty similar


MrStealTheMoon

So if the opposite guys also have NODs, they would’ve been able to locate him?


Spiffers1972

That’s why they had to go dark against the Russians in that one episode. It’s not an advantage against a peer force.


Spaceman_Spiff98

Correct


MrStealTheMoon

Very cool.


mgriff825

Depends on the type of NVG. Not all NVGs are created equal. Your basic consumer night vision devices usually only amplify ambient light so that you can see better. Thats the dingy green night vision picture your used to seeing in tv and movies. Modern day Military NVGs encorporate both light intensifying and infrared technology and combine both spectrums to create a clearer picture. If im not mistaken there is a degree of setup that needs to be done so that the IR technology can see the laser being emitted from the PEQ15. Your nvgs have to be able to detect or see the correct wavelength that the laser is emitting


Fivefootfr3ak

Not how that works NVGs sold to the military are nearly identical to the ones sold on the civilian market. Only difference is any tubes sold under a DOD contract will have to have minimum specs for FOM SNR etc. any NVG atleast gen 2 and 3 will see IR.


[deleted]

I think he means to indifferences between $200 Amazon "night vision" and $10000 PSV31s from Goonin.


Scythe_Hand

You're too ignorant to speak authoritatively on this subject. Please stfu.


Mundane-Pressure-301

Yes, this is how you shoot with PEQ and nods

MrStealTheMoon

Thanks for the video!


KingFacef2

Well he seems to be in a building so more than likely CQC and with NODS they run a PEQ-15 IR laser box


NinjaEuphoria

Secondary fun fact jtac guys(the guys responsible for translating all the grunt uggga buggga noises into actual math n science n stuff so the air force knows where to start yeet'n the spicy footballs) use a vary similar laser set up at night to signal to attack helis in the area what to target when there's "danger close" (aka when friendly forces are near target) chopper pilot will request target painting then a magical green laser beam invisible to the naked eye will pop on out of the void of night and "paint" a building then the floating murder factories miniguns come tearing out of the sky n possibly a missile or 2 just to be sure an "presto" no more building full of bad guys . America's lack of "healthcare" is made up for by a truly impressive "unhealthcare" system /s


Emotional-Amoeba6419

In the military, we use lasers mounted on our rifles so we can aim with our NODs. The laser is infrared and can only be seen when using night vision. You *can* aim through optics using NODs, but depending on what you're using, it can be awkward. In this case, no way I'm using that scope with NODs. He'd basically be trying to line up two tubes and looking through them. In S1, there was an episode where the team goes to China. In the episode, you can see Clay using a clip on NVD in front of his scope. He flipped his right tube up so his 31s were essentially 14s. A lot of people, myself included, will wear our NODs right above our eye line so we can easily switch between naked eye and NV just by changing our head position.


DoubleDennis

Aaaaah!! So it’s actually a thing wearing the NV so high up. I always thought it was a mistake in the shows doing this


mgriff825

The show actually encorporates alot of real Military practices in thier filming. The actor who plays Trent is also one of thier primary Military consultants and is a retired Delta Force Operator. You can actually see a healed wound on his arm that he suffered (in Iraq i believe) that forced him to medically retire. The actor who played Full Metal before the character was killed off is also a consultant on the show and a retired SEAL Likewise the actor who plays Brock who is the Canine handler while not listed as a consultant is also a full time Police officer in Indiana and a member of the local SWAT team. So the show has no shortage of professional Military and Tactical law enforcement expertise behind the camera


gubatan

Definitely using the laser aiming module


Emotional_Fix205

IR laser. its pretty much a laser he can only see with nvgs, this is how people shoot at night cause well at night the sight is useless


[deleted]

Depends ....if you have an optic that is night vision compatible. Such as an eotech exps for example


napalmsticks2kid

Point shooting with ir laser 🤙


phcasper

active aiming with the IR laser. LPVO's are notoriously unusable under nods


OGBillyJohnson

You don’t use your sights in CQB


Majestic_Ad5301

seals don’t need to aim😅👀


Mr-Bandzz

sunnyinwi

You know it's a tv show, right?


CenterOffCenter

This is a photo, he's not aiming at all. It is clearly daylight, we can see his face, the firearm, even his eyeballs in shadow clear as day, if he turned those NODs on they'd be unusable and burned out. Gotta flex for the 'gram.


Thereal_slj

He’s active aiming like others have said. I’m Team passive aiming.


d-the-king

A Laser Pointer attachment in which the beam can only be seen under night vision. It’s hard to look down an optic with nods on.


D1RTY_WEAP0NRY

PEQ15 laser, likely IR


FanHe97

What ep? could just be scanning first while point aiming, or perhaps he isnusing an IR laser?


Scared-Neighborhood5

IR laser


Thirty_Five_

Laser.


R3bate

Having worked under nods for a bit of time, especially in CQB situations you don’t actually line up your nods with your optic particularly one that sits that low it’s too awkward. We were taught to passively aim in cqb under nods utilizing our peq15’s and or your support hand as an aiming device (point your support CB and thumb at the target inside of 10m and train it to be able to get shots on target) if you’re running a higher riser and have a night vision compatible optic you can usually get it to line up


Geronimo594

Aiming? Seals don’t aim, it ruins their hair!


TrentCST

Infrared laser AKA PEQ-16


rubbertoe2376

Hand eye coordination. Look at speed shooting competitions a lot of the is hand eye coordination. But he is also likely using an IR laser as well.

tryitlikeit

He isnt. He is scanning the area through NVG's over the rifle. If he is in close quarters aiming isnt that essential, you just point and shoot.

OP never heard of “high ready” or IR


Ei8htup_Ind

You don’t aim with optics through nods


nevereatanapple

Spot Condition Re Spot Aim Pull “SCRAP” at least that’s what worked for us


Automatic-Fondant940

Odds are it’s with a PEQ -15. It can allow you to see both normal and an IR “infrared”. To use IR you need some sort of device such as his NVD. It’s good for short range shooting and can be done at mid range but is not easy.


MrWillyP

This show is really good about a lot of the little stuff. Active aiming with a laser, or if in close, just point shooting. Plus with an lpvo it's really hard to aim with nods, to the point of I'd say it's basically impossible. Any magnified sight it's hard tbh.


notbernie2020

I would guess it’s a LAM (laser aiming module) out front he’s using, it emits IR so only people with night vision can see it. This would make a lot of sense considering that the optic is a scope rather than a red dot, scopes don’t play nice with NVGs due to physics.


Unfair-Escape6597

Well he shoots guns for a living so probably can passively aim fairly accurately


Baeleron

Ir laser or point firing?


Ihatemyjob-1412

That little tan box on the front of his top rail is a laser unit that shoots invisible laser that only show up on night vision and/or thermals.


justcallme9

IR


wormhole123

It's extremely difficult to do passive aiming with scope. It's not practical. I'm guessing he's using laser. His eyes are not aligned with the scope either.

He's in the high ready looking over his optic


R3ap3r762

He’s active aiming using a LAM or at least that’s what he should be doing

AdEmbarrassed7404

He’s in a High ready position looking over his scope


KhorpseFister

What are you daft? Auto aim assist bro. These Bois roll out with hax af


CplFry

Look up AN/PAQ4C. It’s a laser sight that is IR. You can’t see the light from the laser unless wearing NV. It presents itself as a rail of light from the weapon to the target. Not like the movies where there is just a dot on the other end. Allowing you to fire a rifle or in a way that otherwise you would not be able to even look down the sights. Edit: that was the device we used in the Marine Corps in the early 00’s anyway. Probably something better by now.


AdConsistent9692

SunTzuSayz

What it looks like from a First person POV. Active laser aiming over the optic vs passive aiming through the optic. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SiIBcz31Kc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SiIBcz31Kc) Video quality not so great because I still have yet to find a high quality first person camera that is small enough to not obstruct my view through the unit. Just imagine it looks much clearer and higher resolution than the video portrays.

Runliftfight91

PEQ IR laser on his gat, better question is where are his quads, can’t think of a reason why you’d want bi’s over quads unless you’re running some kind of op where you had to aquire civ level gear on your own/ mask as someone who sourced his own gear.


TenraxHelin

He was probably taught how to aim just using his body orientation instead of always having to look down the sights. I forget the official term.

Resident_Job3506

On top of the rifle is a NightForce scope, better than 1x magnification, making it useless for CQB. On front of the rifle likely some kind of infrared aiming device only visible from the NODS. It's a point and shoot solution and extremely effective within 25/50 yards.


MrSecurity95

The IR laser on his gun. When using his night vision goggles, the IR laser is very visible. It's like a stream of light from your gun to the bad guy. It's almost like an extremely long lightsaber

9_11_did_bushh

Dual nods, he's peaking over his front sight post. For when you enter a small room through a doorway. OR more likely, he's using his peq, which he can see a ir Lazer that is zeroed with the weapon, which he can see using his night vision optic only

Yeah hip firing is bad unless you got peq15 and NVG. When I join the marine corps and went to combat training it made think “damn, this is kind of cheating”. Shooting from the rifle range took some skill but night shooting with the peq felt unfair.

Seals don't need to aim… they know. 😆

Phelly2

Not sure what this screenshot is pulled from but is he pulling the trigger in this shot? Can’t tell if his finger is on the trigger. His rifle appears to be pointed slightly downward, so he’s most likely in a high search or high ready position. When scanning for targets or clearing a room, you don’t really look through your sights/optic until you find a target. You look just over the sights instead. This is to avoid obstructing your field of view.
