POTD: Thermal Imaging with the new Pulsar Trail 2 LRF XP50

Can someone tell me what brand stock that is? I have a similar one on a DPMS airgun and it's so solid and comfortable I wish I could rip it off and put it on a real gun.
Totally digging white guns lately, they just look so clean...
How much are the pulsars? And are they good?
