Just to let you guys know, Falcon Optics have now introduced their 4-14x44mm FFP with a fully illuminated reticule based on the BL20 (mil). They also do a MOA/MOA scope, although I am not sure if that one is available with illumination. I've been looking for a FFP Mil/Mil scope for my .22LR...

Re: Cork Board Hit "sheet" for Data book. Do you still get white plastic "fillers" in various military issue ammo cans? We used to use this stuff as a white board material as part of our orders books and write on it in either permanent or non permanet marker pens and/or chinogragh pencils...

Re: MOA at sub 100 ranges KeeblerArmy, Many thanks for that..I've been keeping an eye on Hawke scopes, particularly their "Sidewinder" series, but I've not seen a Panarama and didn't realise they were avaialble in the illuminated 1/2 Mil dot version. I did see one of their Eclipse 30 SF a...

Re: I had to send my Hawke back.... When you speak to them, ask them to bring out a Mil/Mil FFP scope in the sub $500 range! it would sell like hot cakes!

Hi, I'm laid up at the moment after an illness so to kill time I have been tinkering with some ballistic calculators for my Ipod Touch, specifically using apps from Hawke and iStelok to run figures for my .22LR using Eley Subs.. I am working in all metric units and getting a problem with the...

Re: led lenser p14 Had another look at mine and I made a mistake as its the P7..Basically it came with a gun mounting kit plus the extended switch.. If you are just looking for a mount, it will depend on the diameter of the body of the P14? Also, what do you want to mount it on, and for...

Re: led lenser p14 Yes you can, but the extended switch that fixes onto the stock is a momentry switch meaning you have to keep pressure on it for the light to work..I have one and dislike it for that very reason..

I've been pondering a new scope for a rimfire primarily used as a bunny basher /trainer. I don't particularly want to sink $800 plus into a Mil/Mil FFP scope, although thats what I'd like.. Failing that, I've decided I'd like a scope with a Mil dot reticle, and must have SF or PA...An...
