    Yeh but it is a bit awkward to use with the abacus on one side for calculating consign angles and the perch for the falcon to fly from and the knotted rope to measure distance on the other.
    gadgetman and GravelBen like this.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Metres or yards. Just hold the mode button to change from one to the other.

    Well for those of you they put offers in for the range finder. You missed a bargain.
    It had started to work again. Although it doesn't return a distance more often than before, above 500m
