PLEDGEY 493 Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 The Archer is a brilliant piece of kit. You can use it as a spotter then just slip it on the scope and you're good to go. Use it with the 'Nightmaster 800 I/R', instead of the Firefly I/R laser that starlight sell, and the picture is a lot more clearer. It feels more natural to be looking down the Archer/scope combo than over the scope. Batteries last around 60 hours in the Archer, the Nightmaster batteries are rechargeable and seem to last about 2 to 3 hours. Starlight have a good name, and it's British.

fireblade_rrw 20 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 How do you find looking down the scope when its added around 4 inches to the back of the scope? Looks awkward. Anyone used the longbow set up? Very pricey at 4 grand. Link to post Share on other sites
white fox 3 Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 I'am of the same opinion as firblade i did try one of the very first rear add on's from soviat bazar many years ago and didn't get on with it at all there was no chance of sholdring the gun it had to be held almost at arms length to be able to look through it which was no good to me .
