I've recently come into possession of a gun on which a 'Cyclone Choke" has been installed. The contraption is very much like a Poly-Choke in that it is an adjustable collet style device.
Any information you fellows might have would certainly be appreciated.

Thanks
Ron

Not well know at all Hoashooter. I consider myself reasonably well informed bud this is completely new to me as well.
Thanx for the help Skeettx. I had seen the thread on Shotgun World but didn't realize there were other guns with this same device around. At least I now have "Heartford" to add to the sparse information I can find. If any of the rest of you come up with anything please let me know.
I have what I believe to be a one-of-a-kind Model 90 with this choke.

Ron
Take a 35MM picture, I have a Canon A1 with multiple lens and motor drive. Shocked

I would use a good 1.2 to 1.4 lens. Take the film to a processor and have them give you a dvd with the pictures, then post them or email them to me and I will post them.
Very Happy

Mike

I can see right now that I am going to be driven into purchasing yet another camera Laughing . Hammack has been harrassing me about it for some time now and Skip over on the snipe site gets a lot more attention since he can post pictures of alligators and such when he pursues snipe. I have no choice in the face of such provocation....... Embarassed

I'll try to get some useful pics. Razz

Don't do it, woodcock. Not till the forum makes it no-brain simple to copy/paste 3-D holographics. I'd hold out for smell-surround too -- you'll want to put a pan on the stove and waft snipe trail at us.

LR..www.thesnipehunter.com is a small website dedicated to the pursuit of snipe and all the 'stuff' that goes with it. The webmaster is a guy from Florida named Skip Hutchison. Very friendly, no trolls, international membership and and excellent place to spend some time.
Come on down! Wink

Thanks for the information. Snipe hunting deserves its own website.
