The Trijicon IR-Patrol M300W 1-8x19 rifle-mounted thermal system brings hands-free night vision capability to hunters, tactical shooters, and serious marksmen who need to work effectively in complete darkness or degraded light. This compact, weapon-mounted thermal optic pairs a 19mm uncooled thermal sensor with a 60 Hz frame rate, delivering smooth real-time imagery without the bulk and battery drain of older cooled systems. Whether you're glassing game at night, conducting low-light range work, or operating in urban or rural environments where conventional optics fail, the M300W is built for professionals and dedicated sportsmen who refuse to let darkness slow them down.
At its core sits a 640x480 thermal sensor with 12-micron pixel pitch and better-than-50mk thermal sensitivity—enough resolution and clarity to identify targets and navigate terrain reliably at extended distances. The 60 Hz refresh rate means no lag, no ghosting, just fluid thermal imagery that lets you track moving game or respond instantly on the range. The side-flip mount keeps the optic ready to co-witness with your rifle while remaining quick to stow or transition, and it includes a Wilcox shoe interface for helmet-mounted or alternate weapon configurations. Startup is fast—roughly 5 seconds—so you're never caught flat-footed when the opportunity matters.
Build is rugged: the monochrome OLED display is tough, the optic handles extreme cold and heat (operating range -40°C to +55°C), and battery life stretches 1 to 1.5 hours on a single CR123 cell at 60 Hz, or double that with two batteries and the included adapter. Diopter range of -6 to +2 and 27mm eye relief accommodate most shooters and mounting configurations. The M300W also includes edge detection, digital contrast enhancement, E-zoom, and polarity adjustment—tools that matter when you're trying to squeeze every bit of information from a thermal image in challenging conditions. Image download capability and analog video output add flexibility for training, documentation, or integration with other systems.

The M300W includes a side-flip weapon mount with a Wilcox shoe interface. The Wilcox interface allows adaptation to helmet mounts (such as the model used with M250 and M300W) for hands-free operation if you add the appropriate compatible helmet mount separately.
The M300W runs on CR123 batteries. With one CR123 cell at 60 Hz, you get 1 to 1.5 hours of operation. If you use two cells with the included adapter, battery life extends to 2 to 3.5 hours at 60 Hz. The adapter for dual-cell operation is included.
Yes. The M300W includes image capture capability and comes with a download cable for transferring images to a computer. It also features analog RS-170 video output via an optional cable if you want to record or integrate the thermal feed with other systems.
Based on the specifications provided, the M300W operates at 60 Hz frame rate and is optimized for weapon mounting. The M250 operates at 30 Hz. The 60 Hz refresh rate on the M300W provides smoother thermal imagery and faster target tracking, making it the better choice for hunting and tactical applications where real-time responsiveness matters.
