    Mates Mamba

    Hi Ady, I have been out with my mate today and whilst I am shooting using a BSA baked bean can scope I dont seem too flustered, the BSA I have as great clarity and holds zero very well and the mil dot reticule is easy to get on with if it had IR I would stay with it. Cheers T

    Yaroooooooooooooooh

    Regarding the IR illumination on the Mamba.
    How, in terms of reliabilty have folk found it to be as one or two folk have mentioned theirs not working.
    Yes I do know that Gary and Sammie will sort out any problems that might happen.

    There is a new design out, all new Mambas going into the shops have locked on IR modules. The problem was that in about 7% of scopes the friction fitting contact pins were not tight enough leading to contact problems.
    We were assured by the factory that the V2 version would solve it, it didn't. Therefore I asked for a design change, the IR module now has 2 allen bolts running through it and is as solid as a very solid thing.
    The 93% of scopes that were good have continued to be so.

    Job's a good 'un now.


    There's Glasnost for you

    Thanks for the info on the scopes Mr Shady.
    The Mamba is a lovely scope and I particuarly like the SCB Reticule on my .223.
    If just the floating cross was illuminated that would be the cherry on the icing but perhaps it's not feasable.
    Thanks again
