Max vs stealth x-2

i like grey owls approach. being in the navy they should know how to handle a gun safely. just remind them to keep their fingers out of the way or they really wont like it :shock: :lol: if your going to let them shoot it also be sure to let them know they need to be sure the limbs wont hit anything....

wasnt that funny man.... :roll: anyways, i havent heard of anyone finding it in SW ontario yet. you should just find a popular brand here that they also have in alberta and try it on and find the size you need. then get them to compare the size/fit between the predator camo and the other stuff you t...

assuming that pic is how they would want it. if they put limbs on like that wouldnt they be pointing back way too far?
