    Bipods

    I appreciate the enthusiasm and effort but attaching a bunch of pvc to your gun with electrical tape is totally ghetto, no offence. I need to see foto for entertainment. Pleez post. This sounds like duct taping a roof rack onto your car.

    FX Wildcat, and a wooden stock - but what color??

    I always use a dye on figured wood to pop the grain. Usually i like to make the wood warmer with yellow and red. My favorite is to use 2 stains. First the yellow and then the red. The red, being second, wont be absorbed as much and will just highlite. For yellow, maybe use "new maple" and for...

    Want to set up video system

    Finally figured out the iphone 6 camera specs. It shoots 240fps at 720P (1280x720) which seems good enuf to save a few bucks. Only issue is the way the phones camera is always in the corner it must be unbalanced and more shake artifact (im guessing).

    Want to set up video system

    Just trying to figure out all the pieces. Seems you need a scope with ocular threads, of which Hawke have. Which size Hawkes, 40? 42? 50? 56? Only Sidewinder? What about Leupold? Then need an adapter. Eagle vision is like $150. DIY worth it, or sucks? Any other choices? Then need...

    New Wildcat for me!!!

    My tank (from R&L airguns) also came without a valve. And gun case was too short for gun. And scope mounts wrong type. Very frustrating but after 2 days and 8 hours of driving around got everything fixed. I also have a fantastic wood shop in Chicago. Anxious to see how your project turns...

    We really need some Scope write ups!

    I bought a Hawke Sport Optics HK3035 3-9x40 Rimfire for my FX Wildcat. I find the scope great EXCEPT it only works from 3-7 magnification. Higher than that the reticle becomes blurry and it annoys me immensely. But what do you expect for $107? Will get a better scope in a few months...

    racoon early warning system

    Im sick of the racoons getting into my trashcan in middle of the night and spilling it all over the place. Now I just bought a mercury switch ($6) and a 100 feet wire from amazon ($9). Im going to hook these up to a LED flashlight so that when the racoon opens the garbage can lid, the mercury...

    Digital video recorder

    Pheelgood, do you have quick release scope mounts so you can switch to a regular scope in the daytime?

    What scope are using and on what gun?

    I ordered a photon XT 4.6x42 nightvision for the 0.25 FX wildcat that is supposed to arrive in 2 days. Im planning on shooting mostly racoons and skunks at night when they are harassing my dog and creating general havoc with trash etc. But I wish someone could recommend a good quickrelease...
