PVS 24

Hey guys. We (swat snipers) are going to be upgrading our night vision capabilities for our sniper rifles. We currently plan on going with an in-line system to mount in front of our day scopes. Initially we planned on going with the PVS 22, but just had a demonstration by a rep from Northrop Grumman on the PVS 24. They tout that they were awarded a contract through SOCOM in 2006. I would like advice/opinions from anyone who has experience with the PVS 24. The rep did not indicate how the PVS 24's were being utilized by SOCOM, whether they were intended for use with sniper weapons systems, or with M-4's.

My basic questions are: Is the PVS 24 a viable night vision device for use with a sniper weapon system? Which performs better in clarity, the PVS 22 or the PVS 24? If you had to choose, PVS 22 or the PVS 24?

Thanks in advance. I'm looking for opinions from the field, not some company rep.
