Wanted Ward d700

[sunndog]

If anyone remembers. julian (mr starlight) fell out with me on here on that very subject a year or so ago. He was insisting you need a tight beamed laser to get the distance i was insisting you didn't


btw, If anyone reading this has a dragonfly i'd love to see some close up pics

I had a new Arrow and now have a WDV 700 that I bought secondhand, I had the two for a while to see which one I kept, as for IR I am no expert but what I can tell you from experience is that the Arrow would not work with anything less than a firefly laser on my Swaro Z6 and the Ward worked with the NM800 and better with the black sun pill in it, I will keep the WDV until something a lot better comes out, which could be a while

hope this helps

Hi Savage.
Just a bit more info as to lasers and led torches.
A while back on here some of the lads were buying a laser by Laserspeed that was 500mw (none eye safe) but with the Nite tech nt300, and the Ward-D 700 they were getting over 500 m with it, but you dont here about anyone using one now ???, lasers in general just dont give the clear beam that a led illuminator does, also led illuminators dont show water in the n/v picture when its raining, lasers do, and if you dont dry them they BURN the water marks on.
Where ever possible your better off with led illumination, and a night vision that works well with one.
IMO tubed stuff just works better with lasers, but most digital stuff work very well particcularly with these's NEW AS, or Black sun pills, they really have moved the game on.

no one has ever mentioned taking any filters off AFAIK mate, is it fully focused and on full power?



don't s'pose you'd do me a couple of close up pics of it would you?

[savage]

Will do. In the dragonfly hand book it states it has filters for the UK market and they remove the filter for shipping worldwide. They even state with the filters in you wil detect out to 300m and with them removed out to 800m and have a guide showing filters in and out. I think u must remove them because it is terrible with them in. I can't detect any light even at 50yds.
So I tested without the filters. And I must say you'll have no problem shooting foxes out to 250+.
Image isn't the worst . As the lads said above its a bit dirty but passible
One big problem I have is the body of the arrow or more the screws holding the body on are fouling my bolt. It will cous big problem on a quick reload.

Either lengthen or shorten the screws to miss the bolt, or change it for the WDV 700
