happyshooter Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 It works well! Hi SAM , as a matter of interest, what is the nv unit you are using on the storm,!!? atb brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted November 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 That is a Night Eye NE500, which is better than the (current price) £599 Nite Site NS200! Cost is £419, you have to buy your own case though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remimax Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 reminds me of the SA80,thought that was a pile of poo when i fired one in the late 80,s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evo Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 certainly carn,t argue that it shoots well by the look of the photo, if its not broken then don't fix it,, would like to try one because as said it would be great shooting one from the 4x4 out of the window, it looks nice (sorry UGLY) but compact , but I,m sure if it shoots as well as you say it does mole then I think it would be ideal in some certain situations atb Evo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted November 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 It cloverleafed at 30 metres on the second magazine of pellets I put through it (Defiant Ogive 4.52mm 11 grain). It is also handy when you are getting through paddocks with electrified fences! It may be ugly but I love it! It has a sort of pugnacious look to it! It is now known as Spike!

FalconFN Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 reminds me of the SA80,thought that was a pile of poo when i fired one in the late 80,s.Well, half of an SA80. As long as it does the job it doesn't matter what it looks like - unless you plan to take it out with you in plublic, in that case the people running from you in Tesco aren't likely to be offronted by the bullpup aesthetic....

Salop Matt Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Myself I cant stand bulpups......So needless to say this rilfes looks dont float my boat at all. Secondly I wouldnt dream of turning up with a rifle like that at a land owners to under take pest controll dutys as it wouldnt sprise me if the land owner thought it was a bit COD / millitary wanna be look, and they would be right. Give me a traditional looking bolt action rifle any day of the week. ATB Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_r Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 As above.. Maybe I'm shallow, but I would be genuinely embarrassed being seen shooting with that. Fugly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted November 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 It is an ideal rifle for this time of year, no bluing, only paint, no wood to get soaked either! The styling may not suit some, but it suits me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcantwell Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Not personally my cup of tea, but looks like a handy bit of kit and a good write up. Cheers Mole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyshooter Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Hi SAM, i may get the storm in .22 fac @30fpe as its way cheaper than a FX bobcat and i can save some £600-00. atb brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deershooter Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 It looks like it's mane of industrial cable tray why would any one want one (oh forgot about the Johnny Rambo's who don't have a FAC ) Deershooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretagentmole Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Why? Simple, for shooting in an enclosed environment where a full length rifle or carbine is impractical. Such as in a hide, from a vehicle or in a wood which is so dark even the trees bleeding huddle together! Superb piece of kit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyshooter Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 I have now put a deposit on a Fac .22 storm, because it will save me nearly £600-00 on the previous bullpup i had my eye on, i am not worried by looks, that can be changed its the advantage of being small that makes it just right for 4x4 , ambushing, hide shooting, and since getting my Kalbrgun cricket Bullpup, i have a liking for bullpups. atb brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
