[Phantom 631]

your like me TinTent, ones you get started you cant stop. i want this

http://cgi.ebay.co.u...e=STRK:MEWAX:IT

the saler said the mounts will fit. and the scope looks great. only thing is if the mounts dont fit then thats another set i got that dont work.

 

:11:

 

What mounts do you have Jac?

 

What you have to remember is that most sellers will say anything to get a sale

The guys and gal's over on the UBC forum will guide you to exactly the best of what your looking for.

There are a hell of a lot HW45 owners over there including 2 or three of the management team (Cookie has several of them including the Silver Star version )

I'm not a fan of scopes on pistols, but a few of them are

Hi Martin,

 

That link is to a mount?

 

And I really do not see the point in buying that mount as you will be pointing your gun at a target and your light will be pointing 90 degrees from the target! :11:

:icon_redface: Thats the problem with copy and paste :icon_redface: I didn't test it before I posted. Having said that..90 deg, you have seen me on the range haven't you lol

So..... last bit then I'll leave this thread alone (running out of cash rapidly )

 

Night vision. I know it's expensive, but is it any good? I quite like the idea and I think it would be very good on one of my permissions for not attracting attention.

 

Might rig a cheap option of 0 lux video camera attached to scope (as seen in some excellent videos on this forum) I presume the range on the real thing is where they come into their own.

 

Cheers
