Scopes, clothing, tools and guns: Santa was good to us this year!
PAO 1X30 RED/GREEN DOT SIGHT £40
Professional Airgun Optics (PAO) is a fairly new face in the world of weapon
sight systems. The company produces rifle scopes, rangefinders, night
vision optics – and, of course, the 1x30 red/green dot sight featured
here! This 1x magnification dot sight allows the user to choose
between a red or green dot, and will fit any 20mm weaver rail
system. Provides for five brightness levels in both red and green
settings. Made of aircraft-grade aluminium, this is a robust, wellpriced optic suitable for both pistols and rifles.

MAGNUM SIDEWINDER HPI
(MULTICAM) £189.95
In development with the aid of UK, US and other
SF personnel for more than 12 months, the Magnum
Sidewinder HPi features Crye Precision-licensed Multicam
pattern. They still have Magnum’s own ion-mask technology
though, which provides resistance to water, blood-borne
pathogens and other chemicals. They are not waterproof, so take
care to keep those feet dry! A breathable lining keeps things
fresh though and the whole thing is very well-constructed, using
durable materials, and should survive a good amount of use.

We tested this awesome
camo over suit at a
woodland skirmish. Despite
being incredibly lightweight,
and made of thin material,
the suit is resistant to tears and
snagging and durable enough you
won’t worry about it being ripped
apart. Deerhunter’s own Innovation
pattern emphasises the 3D effect to
provide for impressive camouflaging
properties. Features elasticated
waistband and pull cord fastening.
Our only gripe is with the buttons,
which are prone to popping off – a
bit of tape on the inside soon
sorted that out.
