Connect 01 review part 2

[Geordie]

Good review Craig, I think I'd like to try one of these on my little Buckmark

[Eagleman]

As comment to Part 1. Thanks Craig for this. Very informative.

[Craig-P]

Cheers chaps, hope it's of some use to you.
Dan, I'd imagine the Connect to be a very nice addition to a Buckmark and very inkeeping with the compact lines format...

...got me thinking about buying a 'project Buckmark' now....lol

Connect reviews...like a no7 bus...nothing, then

Good innit. Ok, mine is fitted on a humble airgun, but it dint half work well.

One thing I would say is that there is no room for error re head/eye position.

I tried shifting my head about a bit at the weekend, as I hed not got the eye relief quite right, and it really does make quite a difference to the fall of shot.

That said, its a unique scope, that behaves slightly uniquely, but is worth every penny IMHO.

Good review bloke, sadly, my crash test dummy refused to shoot with the connect...poof!!

[some bloke]

Yea - both number 7 buses were excellent

Cant make my mind up about gary's comment elsewhere regarding recoil... how much is too much - what about a 17 HMR? is that stretching the boundary too far - or has it yet to be tried?

Now then got to find Gary

[Gary C]

Try it..

If it's too much I'll pay for the plaster

For the record, there is a clamp from Deben that will put a weaver to weaver mount for the mini lamp.

I found out just after a mate had welded 2 cut down mounts together to achieve the same

My one was cheaper it has to be said (IIRC the original is about £27), but not finished etc.

Just got to get the buggers to sit still now...my patch is so wet it's like slopping about in cement and the world knows exactly where you are
