OK, I realize there are some types of red dot sights that have NV settings that will allow you to still see the lit reticle while wearing NV goggles.

However, I was wondering if there is a way to take a scope with a lighted reticle that does NOT have this ultra low setting and modify it so that it will allow you to use your NV goggles while using the scope.

I know this sounds rather "cheap", but couldn't you use some sort of filter material over the ocular lens to seriously reduce the amount of light coming through the ocular from the lighted reticle? Perhaps an IR filter, or just a really dark piece of polarized material like that used in sunglasses?
 
I would doubt it.. i think the low setting are IR so the show up on the NVGs.. but I am not sure. Let us know if you get it worked out.
