>Swarovski AV 3-10×42 Rifle Scope with TDS
August 10, 2007
For those of you looking for new glass to compliment a new gun, or folks who need an upgrade, I want to tell you about one of my all time favorites. For big game hunting purposes one of the best I have ever used is the Swarovski AV 3-10×42 with a TDS reticle. The AV means “American”, and uses a one inch tube. The whole package weighs just under 13 ounces, and is so clear and bright it’s shocking. If you’re used to non-European optics, you need to see what some of these folks can do. This is Austrian quality

>Night Vision Scope for Airguns and .22s
August 7, 2007
U.S. Night Vision has developed a night vision scope with a 3/8″ base that is rugged enough for adult spring piston airguns. It will certainly also work on paintball guns and softair guns. Spring piston airguns destroy most non-airgun rated scopes in short order, mainly due to internal components not being sealed for the vicious two-way recoil these guns generate. The U.S. Night Vision D 143 is made to hold up under these demanding conditions. It was designed with external windage and elevation adjustments to minimize internal moving parts. The mount holds secure under all normal conditions, and is perfect

>Slug Guns and Bushnell HOLOsights
August 7, 2007
People are starting to feel the first tinges of hunting season about now. Not because of the weather, but because we haven’t had a hunting season around for a while. Hopefully we’ve been at the local range a time or two or at least put a fresh coat of goop on our shootin’ irons. Deer hunting kind of started a month or two ago when we put in for our permits. Here in Illinois we are confined to our slug guns. Too populous for rifles, say the ignorant rule makers. But slug guns are fine and shoot better all the

>Red Dot Sights and Rifles
August 3, 2007
A customer asked if it would be okay to put a red dot sight on a rifle. He asked because they were usually advertised for use on shotguns and handguns. This is true, but there is no reason you can’t use them on a rifle. Most rifles are capable of shooting into a couple inch group at a hundred yards. The dot on most red dot sights will cover three or four inches, thereby making your rifle much less accurate. If you’re only shooting at a hundred yards or closer at vital areas the size of a pie plate, that’s

>Aimpoint Micro Red Dot Sight
August 1, 2007
The latest offering from the Swedish company Aimpoint is the Micro red dot. This tiny unit is built to the same stringent quality control standards as all the Aimpoint products, but is in a minuscule package mountable on almost any firearm with Weaver style or Picatinny rails. The Weaver base is integral with the unit, and being one power, has no particular eye relief requirements. You may install it on a shotgun, rifle, or handgun, and it is parallax free. It uses a single CR2032 battery and will last in the on position for five years continuously on setting eight
