tignme Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 dont know this p7 led torch but I ve just recently bought a cluson superlite supreme(torch) scope mounted,rate it highly on rabbits and have taken foxs using it,not a lightforce type light but being led type it takes a bit of getting used to,yes i know some will say very expensive but the quality is good,the scope mount is excellant and the price from Charlies direct is £110.00 all in.elsewhere its sold at about £150.00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remmy1100 Posted April 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Ive been debating one of the P7's what sort of range beam did you get with it? was using lightforce 170 thats mounted on quad to sweep field to spot and shoot but I used p7 out to 70 yards with no problems full power was very bright and low power was still adequate at that range to see bunnies.there around £65 at gun dealer but can get for £28ish on evilbay dont know about mount though ,which is good quality too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
