Default Chitown & ace 250 users

Thought y'all 250 users might be interested in this Hip Mounting the ACE 250 Pictures

I use a hipmount and find it to be much easier on the elbow ! Also it seems like a good idea to make your 250 easier for the younguns to operate.

Wow, that's pretty cool! Very inventive and creative. Does it really take a bunch of weight off of your arm?

Hey there Pris ! I dont know about the ace but i have a cz-20 and with the hipmount its not much heavier than a cane with a coil attached ! Although with the control box hangin on my side it kinda makes my back ache,or that could just be old age bones kickin in !

Your welcome ! I'll bet with a sniper coil it would be even easier on the "old age bones"

Cool Good tip

This looks very similar to what I have for my Soverign, I have it all (control box and probe) on an old military cartridge belt. I can swing the 15" WOT all day and be ready for more. It also makes the coil easier to control in rough terrain and when checking buildings, trees, and under brush & briars.
