>Leupold LX Mount Systems
August 20, 2007
The Leupold LX mount system is a high end quick detachable unit designed for just a handful of guns, mainly those that may be used for dangerous game. Of course they fit Remingtons and Winchesters, but also Mausers, Kimbers, and Dakotas, all in long action. They are the quickest to remove I have ever seen. The price tag will also make you gasp. These are not for the faint of heart. You need to buy the LX system with your choice of ring diameters, as well as a base for your gun. So you may have a rifle scope mounted

>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
