Needed Advice Before Using AEA Airguns for Night Hunting

I’m considering using my AEA Airgun for night pest control and wanted to ask what setups work best in the dark. Do you run IR scopes, thermal, or just flashlights? How’s the trigger visibility and sound signature when hunting raccoons or possums after dark? I want to stay discreet but still be effective at under 50 yards. Any gear pairings, mounts, or quieting tips specifically for night missions would be awesome. I’d love to hear what works and what’s a waste of time or money.
