  1. Ordered today from eBay a pack of 10 crows and used the code SAVINGS20. Found it on dontpayfull.com. Might help someone here to save up some money. Cheers.
  2. I get my Crow decoys from eBay. There are a lot of verified sellers with plenty of them in stock + you can find really good prices there.
  3. Yeah, imagine how good will be scopes in a few years...
  4. Hi John, Sorry Ive only just seen this. All mine have now been sold but, the good news is that Shotkam now have an online shop specifically for the uk which means you wont pay any VAT or Duty on arrival even though it still ships from the USA. The online shop is found by CLICKING HERE and then scrolling to the bottom and clicking UK Online Store. That will then allow you to buy one for £595 delivered with no extra costs. Hope this helps pal. Cheers, Keith
  5. I bought the Minox but I bought it from the USA where its much cheaper. Scopeslist I think I used.
  6. Itll sell fast on ebay but they will skin you for 10% plus whatever paypal bums you for too ?
  7. Is it similar to the Atec A12? or a big tube looking thing like the rest of the hushpower type?
  8. Join this group on facebook and ask people who have them. https://www.facebook.com/groups/190793041566865/ Ive got one, found it invaluable. I went out a few weeks ago and lost the plot with my shooting, couldnt work out why I was missing so many so 2 days later I went out in the field with it strapped onto my semi auto and I must have shot something like 12 for 67 shots!! Got home, watched the footage and realised that I was shooting in front and over the top. What I also notice was that on every shot I was lifting the gun ever so slightly just before I took the shot (nobody would have noticed that if it wasnt for the footage) which was making me miss over the top. Went out again after with the info in mind and I was 7 birds for 8 shots. BTW. I sell them too and have a few remaining from a batch Ive just brought over from the US. PM me for info if you're interested.
  9. Only 3 remaining now from this batch. If youre wanting one then dont leave it too long.
  10. Sorry lads, bloody hell... I thought Id put the price in there. I also thought Id set up for notifications on replies... I hate computers lol!!! I cant edit the main post to put it all in there either now unless a mod/admin can add it? They are brand fire new and £600 a unit Theres also a facebook group for people with them or considering them.. its all shotkam related and only just been started up: https://www.facebook.com/groups/190793041566865/
  11. This is a brand new 2018 ShotKam with WiFi Comes with a full 12 months manufacturers warranty which is transferable to you. Price is not negotiable. It is already at second hand UK prices. There are a few main points which you should be aware of. 1. The warranty is a manufacturers warranty which means that if chat/email support cannot fix the issue then you would be required to send the unit back to Shotkam in the USA which would probably cost around £15 and they will send it back to you at their cost. If you are outside the warranty period then you would need to pay for shipping both ways for a repair. 2. The battery in the Shotkam would probably require changing after 2-3 years use which would entail getting it back to Shotkam for them to change it. That said, Shotkam have said they expect to have a UK service centre in place by 2020 which would make the process faster. 3. I only accept payment by cash or bank transfer. You can use paypal if you wish but you would be responsible for any fees incurred unless you use friends and family feature. 4. The cameras come with a 12 Ga Over Under/Semi Auto mount as standard. 410 Ga, 20 Ga mounts and 12 Ga SxS mounts are available. price is £600 per unit. New not used
  12. I bought 4 ShotKams from the US to get a better price (although I still paid VAT and DUTY). I have kept one myself and 2 others have been sold on via facebook marketplace leaving just this one left. Someone else has just sold one on ebay for £600 plus £15 post for a USED one. You can see why I bought 4 eh Its £562 posted. Bank transfer pref. Postage is Royal Mail Special Delivery unless you want to collect it then its £550 flat! Any takers?
  13. As New - Perfect Condition - Boxed with manual and lens cloth. Bought in September 2017, this scope, bought for use on my HMR has seen very little use. Selling to fund a new night vision scope because I dont shoot during the day and the bunnies are sensitive to light so Ive been using my Yukon Photon as a stop gap (taken off my air rifle) instead of the Minox. It has an illuminated ret. The small + in the center is the illuminated part so as not to "light out" the target. RRP £950 Complete with box and cleaning cloth as you would expect. Belting scope but just not what I need right now. Id keep it if it wasn't for having to fund the new one. PRICE DROP £550 Description This Minox ZX5i 5-25x56 scope with Plex Absehen reticle features a large field of view, special optical high-tech glass, sharpness and clarity in low light situations, infinitely variable reticle illumination, parallax compensation, position sensor that automatically deactivates illumination, M* multi-coating, 1/4 MOA elevation and windage adjustments, shock and scratch resistant aluminum housing, comfortable variable power adjustment, quick adjusting ocular, argon gas, and waterproof/fogproof internal lenses. Specifications Item Condition Almost New Scope Weight: 835g Scope Length: 16.9" Magnification Range: 5-25x Scope Objective Diameter: 56mm Scope Tube Size / Mount: 30mm Scope Turret Adjustment: 1/4 MOA Reticle Position: SFP Field of View: 7.2m-1.6m @ 100m Eye Relief: 100m Illuminated Reticle: yes Scope Finish: black
  14. grrclark, motty, stevo, are you speaking from experience having used one or ?? The benefit as far as I can see it is that: 1. You take the shot knowing how much lead you gave it 2. You watch the replay and can see the pellets in flight 3. You see how much you missed it by and where 4. You adjust your next shot by the given amount that you missed the last one by and break the target. You have then learned where your shot placement should be at that particular time. The reticle on the cam is aligned with the bead on the gun. Ive been on stands at hodnet wmsg that I could have wasted boxes of carts on and not known where I was going wrong. This would have got me hitting that particular target a lot sooner.
  15. If I can get a free delivery then that'll bring the cost down by $125 each unit to $570 USD then convert that to £ and add duty at probably around 4% and then add VAT so... Probably, all going well, a landed cost of about £505 but best thing to do is to share all paperwork and split the actual landed cost by 4 to make it fair for everyone. All depends on what happens to currency rates when the order is paid for too.
  16. Indeed. Once you've finished with it you can sell it easily for hardly a loss especially if you're paying second hand money for it in the first place.
  17. Guys, I have been speaking to Emily at Shotkam because I want one of these but the price tag is somewhat on the high side. That said, I do think it could be worth the punt. You can get a $50 discount code to use on their website for a single item but better discounts are available. If we can get orders together for 4 units we can get a $500 discount from the total. Yes, there will still be import duty and VAT but its like $125 per unit less which makes them roughly just under the price of what they're selling for second hand at the moment on eBay for the 2018 model!! Id have one of them which would leave 3 units available. Would anyone else want to jump in on the deal? For those that think its just a cam to video what you shoot, its a learning tool so that you can correct your lead etc.. I dont know how we would work it financially though because trust is a major issue but the chance is there to save a chunk of cash if you were considering one of these.
  18. +1 for NPPC being good. If you've no shooting, cant get time or dont want to door knock its the best was to get out and about. I drive about 2 hours to get to my shooting. It all depends how bad you want it I guess. Ring them and speak to John... Top bloke!
