    Hey guys,

    Sorry for the lack of recent updates!

    In the not too distant future I’m hoping to have the first CNC machined version with me. I’ll keep you all posted and put up some photos when it’s with me.

    Thanks for all of your patience!

     

    Dr. S

    I hope yours comes to fruition as I tried to order one from the website that Alfe2013 linked and nothing has come of it.

    Ah, who knew?! Thanks for the link. If those who were interested in the one I’m doing could let me know whether they’re still keen for it or whether they’d rather go for the one listed above it I’d appreciate it!

    Does anybody know that it fits the SSG69 cos the model M Professional was long action, or does the M refer to action length ?

    So, by way of an update... I’m looking into options for getting a production prototype made to check fit, finish and function. Once that’s here I’ll post photos and confirm interest before going any further.

    It will drag this out a bit longer (for which I apologise) but I’d rather have the peace of mind that it’s good to go before fully committing and before taking anyone’s money.

    Thanks for the update and your dedication to the cause. I will be patiently waiting, as I am sure will be many others if they have sense.

  4. You have to mess about with it changing from rocks, forest or ID and brightness/contrast if you want the best image. But I have found that on the Thermion XP50 and Helion XP50 since doing the last firmware update that gives you image boost, rocks mode seems to give the best definition and then just adjust brightness/contrast for the conditions.

    I'm sure they do, as do Sportsmatch mounts.

    BKL double. medium. 30mm £54.00  Sportsmatch UK, double, medium, 30mm £29.99 (full retail)

    You must have had a better set of Sportsmatch mounts than I had then.

    Yes miki 

    does seem strange set up the bkl your  bending the mounts to fit 

    regards lee 

    BKL mounts centre perfectly. If you reverse one of them on a dovetail you will see.

    I think we'll take it one step at a time. These things have a danger of running away with themselves. Having done stuff like this before and taken people on their word 'I want one' etc etc and been lumbered with left overs, I think this may be a strictly limited run to start with, we both need one, and aren't doing it as a business venture. The problem is, everyone has grand ideas with somebody else's money! :)

    We will keep you all posted. 

     

    Yes please keep me posted.

    I have had both of my SSG`s re-barreled by Calum at PRS so I can assure you I will be ready to part with cash for my two, and my Lad will probably want one as well as he has seen what mine are like with Kreiger barrels on them.

    We have the manufacturer ready, so once the 3D model works and we have a CNC file format then they will go ahead.

    Material and numbers will depend on price, but we will be looking at Aluminium ones and probably getting a price for Titanium.

    I expect we will self fund a batch and sell them off between us, but Titanium ones, if they are feasable, will probably be 'pay up front'.

     

    We will keep you posted.

     

     

    Excellent thanks for the info, Cash waiting. If successful I suggest you post on other forums as well.
