Bleeh Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Hey guys.I've got several nets, but I always find myself coming back to an my old favorite which is a standard fire retardant netting (complete cover, not 60% like MOD nets), but it also has a 'fish net' backing to it, and thick cord around it's border, giving it a nice bit of weight so it's not to bad when the wind starts blowing about.I've been looking online, but I can only seem to find stupid fad nets (clear view, etc), MOD nets, or crappy plastic nets that look like they'd fly away with a gust of wind.

The Ghost Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Don't be put off by MOD nets if they are cheap...I tend to use a few of them and build up layers to give a good thickness. A flat net pulled tight on poles can be seen from a long distance, 'I am not saying that MOD nets are the best....just don't discount them'. I am trying to get some more MOD netting from a bloke but he has run out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleeh Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 How much do you want? Like £30's worth I guess, 4/5ft x what ever that makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 I'll have a look in the garage on Monday, a mate brought some around two weeks ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 I have a net like yours (I think it is ex MoD) and also "normal" MoD ones. Preferring the full cover nets, I fill in the gaps with scrim (either robbed from old nets, or bought specially) attached with cable ties.

The Essex Hunter Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Sorry to hijack this thread but where's the best place to buy the mod style netting? And what's the best size to order? Rich.. Depends on what you need to do, for a field hide, i use a bit which is 5 mts long...and cover that with the old type camo netting. I use 5 poles 4 to make a square and 1 in the middle but 12/14 inches fwd of the front poles and his will give you a bit more room for the gun.
