Top Shot Dustin Runs FT34 Clip-On Thermal
Posted by PardUSA on Sep 8th 2025
Precision builds deserve precision optics.
In this setup, Top Shot Dustin pairs an Ultradyne 6mm chassis build with the PARD FT34 Clip-On Thermal, creating a flexible system that transitions from daytime optic to thermal capability without changing the rifle’s primary scope.
The FT34 clip-on platform allows shooters to retain their existing glass while adding thermal detection performance for low-light and nighttime applications. In this video, Dustin walks through the setup and demonstrates how the clip-on integrates seamlessly into a precision rifle configuration.
Why Run a Clip-On Thermal?
Clip-on thermals like the FT34 mount forward of a daytime optic, allowing you to:
-
Maintain your existing zero
-
Keep your preferred reticle and magnification
-
Switch between daylight and thermal without reconfiguring the rifle
-
Add thermal capability without dedicating the rifle to one optic
This makes them especially appealing for precision shooters who want flexibility without compromise.
