For shooting stuff in the dark.

I use tape and find its fine, until you have shot over 50 rounds then it goes soft and the light is off centre, but the gun is so heavy that after 3 shots I usually miss

Nice I like that blind them then shoot them. Nice to see some well used torches

hee.

Have you thought about having another torch pointing at the gun so you can see where the trigger is and where to put the magazine in? It may help to balance it a bit better too.

Thanks for the idea but I am thinking of maybe dropping the 3rd red one and saving up for one of the Tactical ultra light ones to match the other 2, but £500 for a touch and mount is a little out of my price range, I have a mate Deadly Dave who can hit any fox he likes with his AR and he's only got one torch , having said that his gun has a much longer barrel than mine and he uses steel mags to get the ballance right, I like to see a well used mag rather than all this plastic stuff you see now days
