RQE
Feature:
1. This Universal Bridge is a lightweight, highly adaptive interface component for use with night vision and thermal monoculars. Designed for a multitude of devices and mission options, a single bridge allows use with the PVS-14, MUM, GT-14, etc.
2. It exceeds all present manufacturers' inter-pupillary adjustment, weight savings, and modularity at a lesser cost than competing systems. The Universal Bridge extends adjustability and personal customization beyond any currently offered product with highly adaptive compatibility.
3. The K-Clip has replaced the M-Clip for all configurations using a MUM-style rail, including the FLIR PTQ136 Breach.
4. The Universal Bridge allows users to pair up a large variety of night vision and thermal monocular systems using RQE mounting accessories. Like the PVS-14, MUM, GT-14, etc.
NVG Mount OSS OBVERSE SHOE SET Dovetail
Description:
The K-V-C Obverse Shoe Set (OSS) is intended for applications requiring PVS-14 (and various derivative modules) to be paired or oriented for a variety of applications. The OSS maximizes use of virtually any standard BNVD dovetail as a host receiver. The OSS is sold as a set, including a floating top helmet shoe and lower weapon shoe. The top shoe clamps around the PVS-14's objective lens locking ring. To install, position the clamp screw so it is accessible with the wrench between the battery cap and gain control knob (we find it easiest to unscrew the battery cap prior to installation). The bottom shoe simply threads into the 1/4-20″ insert in the PVS-14 body. Each interface can be installed on separate PVS14's, allowing them to pair with the K-V-C Universal Bridge. They can also be installed on a single PVS-14, allowing the monocular to move from the KVC JAMR to the K-V-C PWM-S for head or weapon mount.
OSS shoes will lock into standard female dovetail interfaces from a multitude of helmet mount manufacturers. The helmet mount attachment dovetail shoe features K-V-C’s Tolerance Tooth. This feature is designed to ensure K-V-C male dovetail will properly seat in any other manufacturer’s female interface. Due to varying tolerances from one manufacturer to the next, wear, environmental changes, etc; not all dovetails consistently lock up. K-V-C’s Tolerance Tooth allows precise adjustment to compensate for tolerance stack. Even if your Universal Bridge locks up perfectly with the host mount, parts wear will occur from constant mounting reps. Adjusting the Tolerance Tooth will ensure a snug fit throughout the life of the device.
OSS Shoes will readily convert your PVS-14 for mounting to an K-V-C Universal Bridge, JAMR, or similar dovetail-based mount. For monocular use, you will need an offset adapter like the K-V-C JAMR.
K-clip Adapter
Description:
Upgraded K-Clip Design to work with both MUM-14 and FLIR Breach PTQ136 and similar systems!
1.KVC K-Clips are intended for open-source / universal-type adaption in which conversion from a legacy style MUM rail plate to a modern BNVD Dovetail Shoe is required. Highly adaptive, the K-Clip Shoe Set includes two individual units (right and left-biased). They can be used on two separate devices for side-by-side use, or on the top/bottom of a single device to create multiple mounting points. K-Clips are designed to slide directly on to the legacy MUM “quick rail.” An integrated 1/4-20” hex set screw locks the K-Clip into the center groove of the host rail.
2.K-Clips will lock into standard female dovetail interfaces from a multitude of helmet mount manufacturers. The helmet mount attachment dovetail shoe features KVC’s patented Tolerance Tooth. This feature is designed to ensure KVC male dovetail will properly seat in any other manufacturer’s female interface. Due to varying tolerances from one manufacturer to the next, wear, environmental changes, etc; not all dovetails consistently lock up. KVC’s patented Tolerance Tooth allows precise adjustment to compensate for tolerance stack. Even if your Universal Bridge locks up perfectly with the host mount, parts wear will occur from constant mounting reps. Adjusting the Tolerance Tooth will ensure a snug fit throughout the life of the device.
3.K-Clips will readily convert your legacy quick-rail monocular (MUM-type) for mounting to an KVC Universal Bridge, JAMR, or similar dovetail-based mount. For monocular use, you will need an offset adapter like the KVC JAMR.
PWM-S Parasitic Weapon Mount AdapterDESCRIPTION:
The KVC PWM-S converts the legacy USGI PVS-14 Mount (yeah, everyone has one in the bottom of their kit bag) to a BNVD Dovetail-style interface. The PWM-S is designed to thread directly to the 1/4-20″ screw in the USGI PVS-14 Mount. It then accepts PVS-14 night vision monoculars outfitted with the KVC OSS shoe. The PWM-S makes head-to-weapon monocular transitions a snap. The PVS-14 outfitted with the complete KVC OSS set will allow users to instantly unlatch the goggle from a helmet mount like the KVC JAMR, and immediately attach it to the PWM-S behind a red dot sight.
