1Wally 204 Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 (edited) I bought this off ebay for £4 from china. I'd seen the shape on more expensive well known catties and wanted to try it cos I like the full pinch grip style. lts miles better quality than i thought and accurate too. The bands are 2040 I think and chuck banned text hex nuts fast as as f**k.Best £4 I ever spent (maybe). Not taken game with it yet but watch this space Edited December 4, 2014 by 1Wally 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Patterd Ales 59 Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 (edited) You cant really go wrong for 4 quid! Till it snaps and removes your eye. Still, its 4 quid! Looks the part eh? Edited December 4, 2014 by Patterd Ales 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No this is not cheap cast metal its a pretty dense wood that I gave some stick (pun intended) with a hammer and checked out, before I even drew the bands. Did I come across in my post as someone stupid who wouldn't give a thought to my safety? Who says I don't wear shooting glasses too. Thanks for your concern Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 I'm with the lad above. How tight is money that you can't spend an extra 20 notes and get the original one you wanted? If that snaps then you will have a sore face. If you are lucky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If that snaps then you will have a sore face. If you are lucky. This is a dense piece of wood, you cant fake that. It isnt cast monkey metal dressed up as stainless. Theres as much chance of breakage as any natural wood catty. I have spent a lot more on a catty recently but I fancied my chances when I saw this and its come good.

youcanthide...BANG 1,051 Posted December 4, 2014 Report Share Posted December 4, 2014 It's a board cut mate. No matter how dense it is still weaker than any natural or multiplex catty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't shoot or sell on ever again 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

People are quick to judge I disagree. But whatever. Not judging anyone. Just offering advice. You spent more money on a better one recently but fancied buying "cheap Chinese shit?"
