    I reckon they could be a long term investment! Not many seem to live long without being shot to bits

    Glad I have two, excellent product. One has got to be 15 years old and still going strong.

    Combros are excellent albeit accepting their limited application within the firearms community.

    I had 2... sold 1 recently.

    The other is now linked to a blueshot.

    Its a brilliant bit of kit but its also very niche.

    I do not think Robin or his brother saw the benefit of developing it further like bluetooth and the like.

    Infra red beam for me is the most stable solution. Still not sold on the FX Radar....

    To one shot one kill, you need to seek the S. Kill only comes from Skill

    I really need to look after mine then. I mustn't shoot it again.
