Are you wanting to have one of those "Connect With Facebook" things on the site so you can login to the forums with your FB account instead of registering here?

If so then I think the forums software phpBB will have plugins/addons for that.

Eric U said Berg's use of Team is just proof of that. Plus, it is much less expensive than Black or Tenex I am going to challenge Eric a bit on the definition of "much less expensive" I am budgeting for an ammo buy right now so I am somewhat on top of this. If you buy in brick quantities ...

Maybe I'll have to learn to program for the iPhone and Android then.... I did make a very nice program for our local junior club to keep track of shooting relays, student information, scores and awards. Put in at least 100 hours of time into it. Wish I got money for it.... lol How much did those pro...

Im not sure what I would get if I had unlimited funds, but once I save up some money I will most likely be buying an Anschutz 2013 in Precise stock. I hopefully will be doing that next year. I am currently using an older Anschutz 54. I have no clue what exact model it is. I'm borrowing it from our c...

I wonder if I can wear some thick sweatpants under my shooting pants? my pants seem to have stretched instead of shrunken. I had to cut a hole in the waist of the pants to hook into as the rings sewn onto the pants dont make it tight enough anymore.

I bought the Anschutz shooter sweater from champions choice to help my prone. I have a bad shoulder which causes my hand to be very shaky and twitchy. The thickness of the sweater dampens it and helps a lot. It also gives nice padding in the elbows for shooting prone. Also what is good about them is...

Oh... yeah I figured that is about where the 'system' ends. I know it isn't to do with the rear sight.



I measured my gun and its about 840mm - 845mm or so. So I guess I can't get an extension tube.

With that 850mm I'm not totally sure where I need to measure from.



I found a good pic of the gun I have and marked out where I think I'm supposed to measure from. Can you tell me if this is correct?

Thanks.

It all depends on your own eyes and the lighting where you shoot as for what will work best for you. I have very poor eyesight and spent a while swapping the different rings and filters on and off my guns and green and yellow is just what I happened to think worked the best. On my air rifle dependin...

I use these on my .22 and air rifle. I find that the color does help me to keep my eye aligned with the rear sight. I use green for air rifle and yellow for .22

my test rig is a piece of railway track with a steel piece welded to it that the rail of the gun slides onto and 3 bolts are tightened. I need to add some extra metal to strengthen it a little as I think the steel is flexing a little bit. Sort of hard to explain. Once I get it done it should hopeful...
