    OK so explain to an old bugger what it is. It looks like a torch with scope turrets but no lens.
    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

    Can I recommend you mount it as close to the barrel as posable,on a .22 I find them frustrating when mounted on the top of the scope as the point of impact and the dot only align at one point and it help to keep the error as small as poss otherwise you can be a few inches out very quickly as your distance to target changes. More of a issue on a .22 than a centerfire.

    Is it a dealextream job? Does it have the flickering dot to draw your eye or a constant?

    Hi Res

    Yes you are right, had it mounted on the scope last night... total pain. I will be getting one of the barrel-clamp mounts from TM tomorrow for sure !

    got it from Aliexpress.com and it is constant not flickering

    cheers
