Hi all,
I find myself stuck with a bit of an issue here and not sure what to do. Right now I have two m4s in Extended set up - one with a Pulsar Thermion 2 LRF XL50 on it, the other with a Nocpix 60r. They're both firing about 120 joules with 42 grain ELR slugs. That setup was superb for us while my brother was here and we're primarily going out together looking for pigs, or doing pest control in the garden.
He's now took a job in UK and flown back home, leaving a 2nd pig gun largely gathering dust in the safe.
Given I'm pretty much on my own now I think I probably want to be looking at having a garden gun for playing about and rats and whatnot, and a 'real' gun to go out at night.
The parts from FX are so expensive, its going to be over 600 euros to buy the compact barrel & bottle to downgrade my m4 to that, then I could tune it down to 40 joules or so as a garden gun.
Or should I be looking to get rid of it and go with the drs tactical compact which is half a kilo lighter?
I'm not sure whats the better option. I definitely don't need a lot of power around the garden, and if I had it I wouldn't use it cos of noise/deflection risks...
