Guest JohnGalway Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Nice video and I like that music Vader, before you look at a dedicated scope check out Starlight Archer, it's a Gen 3 (I think) monocular that you can add onto your scope. I had a look through one equipped with Starlights laser last month and it's well impressive Quote Link to post
garyw 0 Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 VADER. as john galway says look at starlight the guy who is the main man julian is a great bloke to deal with he sorted a archer i bought and tweaked it for me its on a 17 rem and foxes out to 150yds are regular.i wish id got one a few years ago.

mole trapper 1,707 Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Thanks Magwitch, i am well and truly on the mend now, have been out and about on the moles, even been up your neck of the woods last Thursday, coming up again tomorrow, but not as far across, Polesden lacey and Sheffield park. Vader, my Archer cost £1700 for the C grade it is fairly good once they finally got it sorted, need to speak to them again though as it keeps going dim, change all the batteries etc, give it a shut off for a while and it is still the same, makes me mad as hell. You go out a couple of nights later and it is fine and stays working. Quote Link to post
