    A GUIDE TA 435.No zeroing,just clips of front of scope.Great little unit.You could watch a mouse climb up a small bush 50yds away in pitch black darkness.Rabbits,pigs and deer havent got a chance.

    Theres a law banning export of cat skins. Don't know if you're allowed to eat them.

    There was a big fuss about it about 1970.
    Horrible fatty things to skin anyway.

    I get the feline that some on here dont like cats. Please paws for a minute and think of how it looks to the general public who view the forum. While I accept that they kill native wildlife, littering the landscape with dead cats is not in our best interests and will create adverse publicity. Getting offside with the public creates a furrmidible hurdle for us all and loses us valuable furrends in high places (as has hisstorically happend) and could result in the way hunters are purrceived.
    I would be lion if I said I loved cats, but some of the comments posted up on the forum are litteraly appawling. I am not kitten.
    I therefore would ask the purrpetrators of such comments to stop providing mewsic to the ears of those who seek to ostracize us as the pawsibility of the consequences could be catastrophic..
    We dont need to be pawtrayed as killers! So, come on guys say something pawsitive about cats for once................

    See several cats on my morning walk, invariably sitting under a lowish bush waiting for wax eyes to appear to make into a cats breakfast…
