Had to laugh at Bushnell Tactical turrets

Post by puffnstuff » 30 Dec 2013, 10:53 am

So I picked up some ammo and was killing a few minutes at my LGS waiting for a mate, so had a look through a few scopes.

I was looking for something in a high magnification target scope, and the guy pulled out one of the Bushnell Elite Tactical scope.

I knew the buzz about the the tactical turrets being 'finger adjustable' while wearing gloves and all that. Fair enough.

Seeing them in real life though :lol: They're massive!

They're just as big as the eye piece. Never mind using gloves, you could adjust the turrets with your feet :lol:

I had a look at one of these this morning.

You're not joking, the turrets are enormous.

They're for if you end up in a situation like The Black Night in Monty Python.

You can work the turrets with your mouth after your arms and legs have been chopped off :lol:
