Visible out to about that far yes. I am trying to remember the range they are boresighted to. You might look for the technical manual on boresighting the things.

The thing about the PVS-14 is that with the gain and focus set for useful engagement ranges, it is pretty much black beyond that, so even if the laser was out that far you wouldn't see it.
