  1. As I understand it Mitch, the Pard thermal / nv scope is a thermal spotter scope with a swit to turn it to normal nv although I have not seen the actual spec but I understand it will be here soon. Phil
  2. Not yet but I was advised they will be out in a few months.
  3. I also heard today there is another version Mitch with thermal to find the quarry and at the flick of a switch, it changes to night vision and soon to land on these shores. Phil
  4. You will Tom as I will post some photos when it is back on the action. Phil
  5. I know you are in Leeds but there is a shop in Sheffield called Browns Lock stock and barrel who may be able to help you. Phil
  6. You are right Jimmy it was a cracker and I am going to go for another .25 next year but not sure what gun. Along with another of our members (you know who Jimmy), I rather like the look of the Vulcan 3 and I know a guy on here has listed one in the hunting section, but I won't be doing it until next year otherwise I would be asking to meet up and try it. Phil
  7. I borrowed a side focus one from my rfd to test for them and found it to be quite reasonable, pretty clear but very very stiff eye bell adjustment and focus and I do mean stiff so I would actually look at one first if I were you. I did hear that some models were poor but cannot confirm. Phil
  8. Don't believe it DB, Jimmy has one on order ? I must confess, I really liked the two black compact versions I had but the grey laminate version was total shite. Phil
  9. Sorry I can't help but it may be worth a quick call to BSA tech dept. Phil
  10. PCP every day of the week. You should find an older BSA Ultra or Air Arms s200 in your budget, have a chat with John at Lock Stock and Barrel on Holme Lane as he gets loads of s/h guns in. Phil
  11. Not certain but I think they were used in Austrailia on very close vermin but not aware you could buy one in the UK. The range was very limited and less use than a 3 bore garden gun which are cheap to buy (about £50-80) and cartridges are still available but few and far between. Phil
  12. Your time will come Mitch and not too long........
  13. Went over to Bridlington the other night for fish n chips along with a bit of drop netting with the kids and a bloke was whizzing along the harbour wall on an electric quad, I think it was a mobility job but it looked superb, chuck it in the back of the estate and take it on some of the perms. Okay, like Dave, I am an ole fart with a very wonky knee so it might come handy anyway..................................... my son in law pissed himself when I said I fancied one. ? Phil
  14. I must admit that I love crow shooting over deeks but I normally shoot on maize when the shoots are just coming through as the birds seem very intent on getting as much as possible. Bloody good kill to cartridge ratio. Phil
  15. I do like the grips on the Impact which is not my thing, what is the mod on the Impact. Phil
  16. It's all yours Jimmy, Chris is happy for you to make use of it mate. Phil
  17. Brilliant sport, I need another rat perm. Phil
  18. Was it Airtech or you that tuned it Mitch. Phil
  19. Ok Jimmy, I will have a word with Chris to make sure he doesn't want it and if not, I will bring it over to Si when you come down next mate. Phil
  20. Yes I know Jon but it is not my thing or my pal's so we have a gun but no barrel (although I know it is available) and no idea if this is set to compressed air or Co2 so stabbing in the dark. I think my pal would be happy to give it away but that is his decision. The WTC is 1.5 - 5x mag, perfect for my use although it may go at some stage. Phil
  21. Having been directed to a chinese gun forum, it is thought the the gun was converted from Co2 mini bottles to bulk fill by a chap called 'porkyyorky' but sadly he passed away last year so I think this gun is going back to the tip. The WTC is on my P35 and I really like it, lovely glass. Phil
