Re: Scope Recommendation for HHA Optimizer

I really like the vx1 1-4x20 heavy duplex shotgun scope I have on my big bore airgun .The eotech crossbow sight I sold to help fund the airgun was also very nice . An hha with a standard eotech would be pretty nice as well .

Re: Noise reduction

Crossbows are just plain loud no matter what you do to them. The quietest ones will be the slowest bows shooting the heaviest arrows - so the bows they don't make anymore and nobody wants. If you want near total noise reduction, wear a good set of earmuffs :lol: I like my slow bows plenty :mrgreen:

Re: crosman pioneer airbow

Yup they have been around for some time . There is a kit/arrow gun from fx airguns as well as a kit for the airforce condor .I'll stick to my outdated Excaliburs for slinging arrows :mrgreen:

Re: crosman pioneer airbow

I doubt we will see this in archery seasons as it has no "BOW". :shock: Gene I hope we don't , Its not a bow in any way . Kind of pointless really . Saw this on one of the air gun forums I frequent . I just don't get why this is better than a crossbow or a big bore air gun . Reminds me of...

Re: Thumb hole

I still hate the thumbhole stocks. Too hard to access the safety and too easy to cant the bow of you're not careful. Yeah the safety is in the perfect spot with the traditional stock, thumbhole not so much . With the exo series bows the thumbhole stocks were an after thought and came along well aft...

Re: Opening morning airgun doe

Very cool, this is the first post in any forum I've seen on someone taking a deer with an air gun, here we can only hunt small game with one. Been thinking of getting one to add to my arsenal but dam they are pricey. I just googled up your Sam young rifle, dam, I like it, though here in Canada I be...

Nice shooting . Should be a good eating deer . The "obsolete" exo series bows are still as good a bow as ever . Just a bit chunky :lol:
