I wanted a great support, for panning with birds. So being the avid paintballer and modder, this was created. I used an old plastic pellet gun, as the body. Internally filled, with some wood for support. Then bolted together. A high grade, bolt through body, locks the lens in position. A realize has been tapped to the side. Operated by the forward thumb. It's very effective to my shooting. Even stationary shots are more stabilized. I shoot this combo a lot! It's freaky when I go back to normal hand held shooting. Just open's your eyes, what it can do...
