Pulsar Proton Fxq30 Thermal Imaging Front Attachment Kit Clip On
The Pulsar Proton FXQ30 is a thermal imaging front attachment kit that lets you mount premium thermal capability directly to your existing daytime riflescope—no permanent modifications, no separate thermal rifle needed. If you hunt after dark or need the edge that thermal imaging provides, this compact clip-on turns any compatible scope into a thermal sight in seconds. Hunters and shooters who want versatility without breaking the bank or the rifle balance they've dialed in will find this a game-changer.
The clever PSP (Precise Screen Positioning) adapter means you mount and bore-in once; the thermal image stays centered in your scope's view every single time you attach it, with zero need for re-zeroing or compensation. That's the kind of reliability that matters when you're glassing in low light. The FXQ30 itself is lightweight and compact—critical when every ounce counts on a long stalk—and the 384×288 pixel thermal sensor with sub-40 mK NETD means you'll see warm targets clearly even in challenging conditions. The fixed-focus objective works down to 15 meters, so you're not fumbling with focus knobs in the field.
Build quality is serious: magnesium alloy body rated IPX7 waterproof and tough enough to handle recoil from rifles like the .375 H&H and 12-gauge shotguns. There's also an integrated recorder with 16 GB of storage if you want to log hunts or document your shots. Control everything from the device itself or pair the optional Bluetooth remote to your gunstock for hands-free operation. The HD AMOLED display supports eight color palettes, and you can link it to iOS and Android for additional functionality and control.
Compatibility is broad: the PSP adapter fits objectives from 40mm to 56mm, so it works with most popular hunting scopes (1.5–6×42, 2–8×42, 3–9×40, 2–12×50, 3–12×56, and similar). You can even unmount the FXQ30 and attach it to a compatible Pulsar monocular to use as a standalone thermal viewer. It's a thoughtful design that rewards flexibility in the field.

Frequently Asked Questions
What scopes will the Pulsar Proton FXQ30 fit?
The PSP adapter works with any scope that has an objective lens between 40mm and 56mm in diameter. That covers most popular hunting scopes including 1.5–6×42, 2–8×42, 3–9×40, 2–12×50, and 3–12×56. The thermal front attachment performs best when your daytime scope is in the 1.5–4× magnification range.
Do I need to re-zero my rifle after mounting the FXQ30?
No. The PSP adapter ensures that the thermal image is precisely centered in your scope's field of view every time you mount it. Once you bore-in the FXQ30 initially, you don't need to adjust it again—just attach and go.
Can I use the FXQ30 as a standalone thermal device?
Yes. You can unmount the Proton FXQ30 from your daytime scope and attach it to a compatible Pulsar monocular to use it as a standalone thermal viewer. This gives you flexibility to glass with thermal independently of your rifle.
Is the Proton FXQ30 durable enough for rough hunting conditions?
Absolutely. The body is constructed from shock-proof magnesium alloy and has an IPX7 waterproof rating, meaning it can handle splashes and rain. It's also recoil-rated for high-recoil rifles and shotguns up to .375 H&H, 12-gauge, and 9.3×64, so it will survive hard use in the field.
