Just joined the forum after reading through it for some time. I must say there are some very impressive things that have been done!

Hello from France!
Re: Hello from France!
Hello and a big welcome to the forum 
Re: Hello from France!
Welcome to the forum. I'll give you all the important questions that other members are going to ask, all in one hit.
Are you a shooter, if so what do you shoot?
Do you have any NV gear, or are you looking at buying or building your own? We love the chance to ramble on to a new captive audience about our favourites.
Are you native French, or an expat?
Do you have a warped sense of humour? If not the Mods will issue one.
Are there any jokes about France you haven't heard yet? I am sure you will be tested on this.
Enjoy your stay.

Re: Hello from France!
Haha, I’ll give a little more of an introduction then!
I’m an expat who moved from Scotland to France in 2004. Before the move I used to enjoy mainly hunting with air-rifles, but have only recently got the urge again (as hunting with air guns in France is forbidden
) and have also acquired a nice hw77k which I’ve fettled 
I’ve never tried night vision but have done a fair bit of lamping, would love to have a go at a diy setup using e700 - but will start a thread for that.
As for my sense of humour, I will try and keep it polite for now. I have very thick skin - and sometimes forget that others don’t always understand my banter!
Cheers, Matt

I love this country; it's the damn government I'm afraid of!

Probably part frog by now, and certainly like the wine! But not a surrender monkey yet...

Just don't fart in our general direction...
