Good Glass - increasing quality in Optics

It used to be that to get decent quality in a scope or a pair of binoculars you had to spend an awful lot of money on hand polished german crystal.  The super clarity of Swarovski, Zeiss and Khales scopes is legendary as well as the price!

The old adage was that you needed to spend at least the price of your rifle again on decent glass, but now the production of lenses from the far east is getting markedly better - the gap is narrowing between 'budget' scopes and the very best of european manufactures.

Hawke scopes are some of the UK's most popular scopes.  We now have a good range of Hawke scopes and have recently acquired a set of stocks for mounting them.  That way you can check out things like eye relief, reticle style and reticle illumination.


We're stocking the new revitalised 'Redfield' scopes and binos too.  These are assembled in the USA and so far are getting good reviews - come have a look through some yourself and you'll see what we mean.  Super clarity and bright images in a robust package.

Seeland Endmoor Ladies Jacket

At last practical shooting clothing cut for a Lady at a reasonable price!  The Endmoor Jacket from Seeland is a waterproof tough jacket with cartridge pockets and handwarming pockets designed for the Lady shooter.  We love the coyote fur detachable hood too!

Seeland have been listening to UK customers and understand that the sporting lady has not been well catered for.  In response Seeland have introduced the Endmoor and the ever popular Keeper jackets in a feminine cut.
