I think it would fit right in at a NRA rally. And right now it can't get more political than that.

That's why we call it "shooting photos".

I wonder how well it works? And, it should have a red dot sight!


I use mine a lot, it is easy to keep stable with long lens and I was planing to put my red dot on it but just haven’t (I say no time to do it but it would be a lie). I’m thinking of putting a pistol grip with a trigger instead of the old trigger. It has a arca Swiss Mount. Not good for wide lens because the end of the stock is in the picture

First time I ever saw a scope more powerful than the rifle. With the flash, looks like it's ideal for night hunting.

Dang, that is an impressive setup. But guaranteed to get way too much unwanted attention in public.

I could never afford all the equipment in that photo. I have no idea what that thing on top is; certainly not a strobe light. In the wild he could possibly attach a rifle and bag the prize even as he photographs it. I see an outfit like that as just showing off. Its like driving a Mercedes in a poor neighborhood.

You may be correct.

Reminds me of the old Zinth photosniper. A Zenith E camera with a 300mm lens on a carbine - like frame and pistol grip. I almost bought one in the early seventies.

Use a bump stock for a higher frame rate perhaps...

Have a look at the images he captures and you may think otherwise.
