AGM Adder V2 LRF 35-384 Thermal Rifle Scope

The AGM Adder V2 LRF 35-384 is the entry point into AGM's flagship Adder V2 LRF thermal rifle scope line a 384—288 thermal scope built around a fully integrated 1,000-yard laser rangefinder, sub-15 mK NETD sensor, AGM's first shutterless NUC system, a 2,560—2,560 semi-circular OLED display, and the highest base magnification in the Adder V2 family. It's the next-generation Adder, built directly from feedback by hunters who used the original Adder series and asked AGM to integrate the LRF, sharpen the image, and refine the user interface.

The 35-384 LRF is also the right Adder V2 for one specific kind of hunter: anyone who runs a 4-16— or 4-20— daytime scope on another rifle. The Adder V2 LRF 35-384's 4—–24— magnification range maps cleanly onto that familiar daytime feel the optic behaves the way a precision-shooter brain expects, just in thermal.

Where the 35-384 LRF fits in the Adder V2 family

The Adder V2 LRF series is a tiered family built on a shared platform. Same internal LRF module, same shutterless NUC, same 2,560—2,560 display, same UI, same 64 GB onboard storage, same dual-battery system, same ADM Recon QD mount. What changes between tiers is sensor resolution and lens size.

• Adder V2 LRF 35-384 384—288 sensor, 35 mm lens, 4— base / 4—–24— zoom. The entry tier with the highest base magnification in the line.
• Adder V2 LRF 50-640 640—512 sensor, 50 mm lens. The step up to 640 image quality with added reach.
• Adder V2 LRF 60-1280 1280—1024 sensor, 60 mm lens. The flagship maximum resolution for hardest-target identification at extreme range.

Step up from the 35-384 LRF to the 50-640 when you want a 640 sensor for finer detail and longer reach. Stay with the 35-384 LRF when entry-tier pricing, the 4— base magnification, and a familiar 4—–24— zoom range fit your hunting and your other rifles.

Why the 4— base magnification matters here

This is the Adder V2 LRF with the highest base magnification in the line and that's not an accident. AGM built the 35-384 around a specific principle: pairing a 384/12-micron sensor with a 35 mm lens at 4— base gives you a crisp, undistorted image at every step of the 4—–24— zoom range, without the resolution degradation that happens when a scope starts at low base magnification and has to lean on digital zoom to do its work.

The trade-off is a slightly narrower field of view at base than scopes with lower starting magnifications. The payoff is image fidelity that doesn't fall apart as you zoom in. If you're already comfortable with a 4— starting point on your daytime optics, the Adder V2 LRF 35-384 will feel natural.

What you get with the Adder V2 LRF 35-384

• 384—288 thermal sensor with 12 μm pixel pitch. AGM's current 384/12 sensor generation.
• Sub-15 mK NETD. Sharp thermal contrast and cleaner edge definition than scopes in the 25–30 mK range meaningful in fog, light rain, marginal heat conditions, and any situation where target-to-background heat difference is small.
• 35 mm objective lens. Sized to match the 384 sensor and pair with the 4— base for clean imaging across the full zoom range.
• 4— base magnification, 4—–24— total range with digital zoom. Supports both full-step and 0.5— incremental zoom adjustments no wasted sections of the magnification range.
• Fully integrated 1,000-yard laser rangefinder. Range a target and get drop data through the integrated ballistic calculator the LRF and calculator work as one system, not bolted-on accessories.
• Onboard ballistic calculator with five user-saved profiles for different cartridges or loads.
• 2,560—2,560 semi-circular OLED micro display. AGM's highest-resolution display, with a redesigned semi-circular interface that puts battery life, magnification, range, time, and vertical/horizontal pitch scale readouts where you can see them without losing the target.
• Shutterless NUC system. AGM's first shutterless non-uniformity correction no shutter blink interrupting your view during recalibration. Seamless, silent operation.
• Pitch scale activation. Vertical and horizontal pitch scale readout for awareness of rifle cant important on long-range shots where small angular errors compound.
• Picture-in-Picture mode with target zoom alongside the wider field of view.
• 64 GB onboard storage with media albums viewable on-device (not just through the phone app).
• Onboard video and audio recording, plus image capture.
• Multiple color palettes including white hot, black hot, red hot, fusion, plus new red and green monochrome and new cold and warm hue viewing modes.
• Dual power system: internal rechargeable battery (up to 9 hours runtime with LRF active) plus a removable 18650 battery. USB Type-C for external power.
• 1,000 g recoil rating. Rated for big-bore calibers including .375 H&H.
• IP67-rated waterproof and shockproof construction.
• 50 Hz refresh rate for smooth real-time imaging on moving targets.
• ADM one-piece Recon 30 mm QD mount included ($220 value). American-made, field-proven, designed around the Adder V2's 30 mm tube housing.

Who the Adder V2 LRF 35-384 is built for

• Precision shooters and hunters already running 4—–16— or 4—–20— daytime scopes who want a thermal optic with a matching magnification range
• Hog, coyote, and predator hunters who want a 384 sensor with integrated LRF and ballistic calculator at the entry-tier price point
• Long-range thermal hunters who prioritize image fidelity at high zoom over a wide field of view at base
• Buyers stepping into the Adder V2 platform the sub-15 mK sensor, 2,560—2,560 display, shutterless NUC, integrated LRF, and ADM mount at the most accessible price in the line
• Hunters running larger-caliber rifles (up to .375 H&H) who need the 1,000 g recoil rating

Frequently asked questions

Where does the 35-384 LRF fit in the Adder V2 LRF family?

It's the entry tier the 384-sensor Adder V2 LRF, with the highest base magnification in the line (4—). Above it sit the 50-640 LRF (640 sensor, 50 mm lens) and the 60-1280 LRF (1280 sensor, 60 mm lens, flagship).

What's the difference between the Adder V2 LRF 35-384 and the non-LRF Adder V2 35-384?

The LRF version adds a fully integrated 1,000-yard laser rangefinder and onboard ballistic calculator. Everything else sensor, display, NUC system, magnification range, mount is the same Adder V2 platform. Choose the LRF model if you want ranging and ballistic dial-in built into the scope; choose the non-LRF if you already use a handheld rangefinder.

What is the shutterless NUC system and why does it matter?

Most thermal scopes use a mechanical shutter that periodically blinks across the sensor to recalibrate the image (called non-uniformity correction, or NUC). That blink interrupts your view sometimes at the worst possible moment. The Adder V2 is AGM's first scope with shutterless NUC, which recalibrates without the mechanical shutter blink. The result is seamless, quiet, uninterrupted viewing.

Is a 4— base magnification too much for hog hunting?

For some setups, yes. For hunters used to a 4— starting point on a daytime rifle, no it'll feel natural. The 35-384 LRF is built around the principle that pairing a 384/12 sensor with a 35 mm lens at 4— base gives you cleaner imaging across the full zoom range than starting at lower mag. If you want a wider field of view at base for close-range hog work in brush, a lower-base-magnification scope may fit your hunting better.

What's the 0.5— incremental zoom and why does it matter?

The Adder V2 lets you switch between full-step zoom and 0.5— incremental zoom adjustments. Most thermal scopes step through zoom in fixed increments (4—, 8—, 16—, 24—), which can leave you stuck between two zoom levels neither of which is quite right for your target. The 0.5— incremental mode lets you dial in finer adjustments no wasted sections of the magnification range.

How accurate is the integrated LRF?

The Adder V2 LRF system ranges to 1,000 yards. The ballistic calculator uses your input data bullet velocity, ballistic coefficient, and other shot parameters to compute drop for the ranged distance. You can save five different profiles for different cartridges or loads.

Will the Adder V2 LRF 35-384 hold up to big-bore calibers?

Yes. The Adder V2 LRF is rated to 1,000 g of recoil impact and AGM specifies it as appropriate for calibers up to .375 H&H.

What's the battery system?

A dual-power setup: an internal rechargeable battery (up to 9 hours runtime with LRF active) plus a removable 18650 battery. USB Type-C accepts external power for extended sessions.

What mount comes with it?

A field-proven American-made ADM (American Defense Manufacturing) one-piece Recon 30 mm QD mount a $220 value, included with the scope.

What's the warranty?

AGM backs the Adder V2 LRF 35-384 with their 5-year manufacturer warranty.
