Wee one with alot of punch. Rugerman did some field testing on a 575 meter M1 Archer - he might comment..

    Did you sell that Marlin 60DLX in the end - one delightful rifle. I shoulda kept it

    The new 200gms headlamp with 600 meter throw a prototype only. Gadget and I have just got it right - hopefully in production soon.

    Micky - Led Lenser are largely old tech lights - they are way behind the new makers like Maxtoch.
    Sound perfect. CAn you PM me a price? and time frame?

    199P - if you had some of the chargers crap out email amanda@maxtoch.cn and let her know. (note .cn not .com) I'm sure they'll look after you. They have a new charger now and its a neat little unit with both wall and 2.4Amp (faster charge) car adaptors.
    Cheers mate long since binned them

    Def keen on a charger too

    Thanks for the encouragement - hope it works out with this site. Not alot in them after you pay customs, freight, GST, plus any site fees.... They should be on the bloody WINZ list...

    Be good to see them sold here. M24 and 2X etc really are the best all-purpose hunters on the planet because they were developed by, and tested thoroughly here by guys on this site and Awesome H&F. When we get to sample stage gadget and I test them here in Canterbury, then they go out all round the country - Central on bunnies, Waimate on wallabies, Hawkes Bay on reds etc etc to get them right. Good fun..

    None run on AAs Micky - all 18650 rechargeables these days. Much greater runtimes and the extra grunt needed for the very high output LEDs

    Will answer requests/questions as soon as know site requirements. Been trying to get hold of the admin - hopefully hear from Spanners? soon..

    I think you'd be hard pressed to find better value, quality and performance for the same money.

    Te Rei you arse....


    Unless I'm mistaken this is Leo who has several Maxtochs including the new Maxtoch XPro Hunter which he says is the best. Leo and team did field testing on this new unit on longer range reds up in HB and loves it.

    Reckons its better than 2X.....

    Definitely keen on a new charger and the mounts for scopes and/or a mount that attaches via M-Lok?

    I have a heap of headlamps already, but I'm sure I'll be tempted by the new one coming once I've seen how good it is...

    Sounds bloody good, love the couple torches I have. What are we talking price wise ball park for the 2X and M24 from the upcoming NZ site?
