      Sounds like a plan to me, I’ll be there a little before 530 on November 12th.

        Randy, I would really like to do that, if I bring it to the next meeting could we do it then?

          Thanks for the links Josef.

          I did get the ZBolt green laser pointer, I don’t care for the on/off button being on the bottom end. It’s just a little awkward using your thumb to actuate it. But it does have a constant on option. Still prefer the Orion one I have.

            Thanks again for all the great info, I actually just ordered a zbolt green laser pointer,

            not the exact one you mentioned. I really like my Orion skyline deluxe green laser pointer,

            and I’ll let you know how the z-bolt compares, hopefully the friend I’m getting it for will like it.

              Thanks for the info all.

              We haven’t seen a charge on our credit card, so thinking I’ll be okay.

              Any suggestions for an alternate green laser pointer?

                Yeah, I was going to go to the last meeting but it didn’t work out. I’ll wait till I can bring it to an event. Thank you.

                  Jim, I’ve been just using the collimation cap that came with my scope, it appears to my untrained eye that it’s pretty darn close. It would be nice to check it with a laser. Im in Red Wing , but would be willing to travel to get some training on the use of the laser. Is that something you would be interested in helping me with.

                    Thanks for the insight, I actually think I’ll get the 41mm panoptic for my first addition.

                    And I see it weighs just over 2 lbs. so I’m pretty sure you’re right about the counterweight.
