OH my God I had laugh my butt off on the box opening that was good can't wait for the review of this optic
Glad it brought a smile to your face, mission accomplished!
Don't encourage this sort of Crazy behavior, he's already on The Edge of Insanity
@@joecizin9357 Have you been talking to his wife?
@@cratxn1 I prefer to call it "lack of social correction due social distancing".
Excellent production Thomas, and very welcome in these dark times.
Stay safe, and we’ll see you on the other side of it all.
Cheers
Thanks. Fingers crossed and safe journey across...
I'm glad you're surviving boredom by making me laugh :D
Great, mission accomplished! I expect this film will polarize the audience, mistreating high 💵 value tends to do that.
Best unboxing video ever!
Thanks!
I second that!
@@ivarwb4115 Thanks again!
No glue 😲
Thomas, you did shock me 🤣
Great video as usual! Thumps up 👍
Thanks, hope it brought a smile! Plenty glue will be applied when I'm on the range and can fix my eye relief properly. Current glue inventory is Loctite 648 (very strong & permanen) and even I understand that is not a good idea for a scope.
What a great video! Unboxing videos are normally dull. You had me chuckling away! Made my day. Keep up the great work. I watch them all!
Thanks, mission accomplished if it brought a smile!
Hilarious! Just what we need these days!
Wonder if this is what all your videos will be looking like from now on...
I've been asked to do gear videos for so long, but rarely do as I don't like them. Two weeks of isolation broke my resolve, not sure what the future will bring.
Looking great!
Thanks, having a lot of hope for this scope. 58mm objective and premium glass has to be worth something...
I like the way you open boxes.
I am great at gift-wrapping too! 🤣
I know that you have a special sence of humor (expert tip) but that was new to me... Cool video, I am happy to get the next review of the performance of that Blaser Scope. I have heard they should be close to magic...
The problem with northeners is that it's not enough people around to develop proper people skills. Virus isolation doesn't help either. I have high hopes for the scopes, I was adviced this scope should have very high image quality. I have seen it shot a bit (super click adjustment, key point for me) and briefly looked through it, but not properly used it yet.
Best unboxing ever!
Thanks, hope it brought a laugh! 😂
Hi Thomas...nice video..and stay healthy💪
Thanks, good luck to all of us!
Best unboxing ive ever come across.. 👌🏻
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! They tend to be boring, and I wanted to do something different.
@@THLR im looking at getting a blaser R8. Would you recommend this scope? Mainly hunting with a bit of range work. Also do you bed your barrels in when new or just start using them. Thanks.
Beachfront property. Nice.
Yeah. Fancy a swim?
@@THLR it's very brisk and refreshing, if you have a warm stove nearby for after :)
An new funny style.! Very nice entretainment even inside home.👏👏👏
Thanks Damien, glad you liked it!
please upload more videos to brighten our days in self-isolation 🙃
Thx 😀
I am reviewing my material to see if I can "boil soup on nails" as the expression here is...
Helt fantastiskt! En video för unboxing ska fan inte ta mer än 6 sex minuter! Allt vi (jag) vill se visas, plus en hektisk klippning för lite comic relief i ett kompakt format. Andelen unboxings på youtube som är några hundra procent längre än vad som är rimligt är bortom alla nivåer! Ser fram emot utvärdering och dina tankar efter att nyttjat systemet i praktiken! Speciellt gällande Handhavande av Turrets och vilket riktmedel du kör med.
Riktmedel er enkelt da Blaser bare tilbyr 1 variant. Med første fokusplan og +/- 4 cm mellom dot/bar på alle kanter burde dette løse ganske mye jaktskyting. Det var ført og fremst kombinasjonen lavere vekt/ gode turrets/ skumringsegenskaper som valgte frem kikkerten men jeg er litt usikker på hva jeg ender opp med å mene om den integrerte BDC systemet. Tårnet er riktig godt å håndtere, men jeg har en sterk preferanse for å bruke en tape med min kulebane - jeg er usikker på om det lar seg gjøre å montere dette evt tilpasse tårnet ( pusse ned ringen for hånd) for å lage stort nok mellomrom til å feste en BDC tape. Skytebanen er ihvertfall 1 måned unna for meg, så vi får se hva som skjer.
@@THLR Jo jag misstänker att det blir en period av att känna efter vilken typ av tradeoff man är villig att göra. Hehe det blir ett spektakulärt avsnitt om det går så långt som att modifiera tornet likt som du gjorde med en PM II för några år sedan 😉
@@andreaspettersson8843 om det blir nødvendig/ om det går, så vil det skje. Blaser er nesten religion for enkelte, så jeg forventer å motta dødstrusler om jeg gjør det. Jeg kan nesten garantere at denne unboxing filmen har noe av den samme effekten og vil gi største antall tommel ned respons, kanskje med unntak av nevnte PM2 film. Jeg synes dette er en merkelig, men ganske forutsigbar reaksjon.
Great video.
Thanks!
Too funny
I like the torque t wrench!!!
Icetools. One of the cheapest. Made for bikes and received top marks for torque accuracy in a bike magazine review. Had it for years, so plenty strong for a gunowner that use it occasionally.
Meget oppegående video! Min type humor!
Takk for det, fint at det brakte et smil!
What no electric saw, to speed up the box opening! Cheers and all the best .
No. Didn't find the big sledgehammer either 🤣
Ny og artig vri, Thomas 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Takk for det!
Very AVE of you to saw and smash your way into the box Thomas!! I nearly pissed my pants when I realised the ocular was right in the path of the saw cut and the hammer was millimeters from ruining your day haha... Fucking BRILLIANT!! :)
You could've busted out the leaf blower to clean up though...
Thanks Dan. We don't have that many trees up here and nobody owns a leaf blower :D
Добрый день все как всегда на высоте спасибо за видео 🤝😊👍👍👍
No problem, glad you enjoyed it!
I think your videos are getting to me, im warming up too a Blaser.
I’ve been warm for the Blazer since Hitman 1 on PC 😂
It's a nice rifle for sure, but what do you have at present? If you like the mounting system, Innomount and Recknagel makes mounts that will put this system on almost any rifle.
@@THLR I have rem 700 which is very accurate and does all i need but i do love the Modular design of the Baser's and how refined and well engineered they are. Look forward to you getting out and using the scope to see how it preforms. As always Love your content
@@samaustin9803 good points. BUT the Blaser barrels are getting very expensive. When I converted, a Blaser barrel was only 10% more than a standard rebarrel job and I didn't have to ship my rifle anywhere.
Позитивная распаковка, :)
Absolutely! :D
Badass
Yes, the whole family got it today 💩💩💩💩 (and I've been surfing too many dad-jokes lately...)
Best unboxing video!! I like to isolate me self with new blaser scope or zeiss v8. Can you compare the two?
Sorry, unable. Zeiss kept breaking down on me, so I stopped using that brand.
Great video Thomas, awesome scope can’t believe you destroyed the box you could got £50 for that on EBay! 🤣🤣
:D never considered that option. Maybe I could re-sell my toilet paper there too, Norwegian stores are full...
Fancy, hehe. Tydelig fått teken på det nye redigeringsprogrammet.
Ja har hatt litt dødtid nå. Kraftigere pc hjelper også da jeg kan se effekten før jeg brenner filmen.
👍nice 🇳🇴
Takker!
LOL nice unboxing ! Did they provide a sheet of sandpaper to grind the saw marks on the scope ?
That oversight warrants an email to customer service... 😤
I like the new "attitude" in this video Thomas, light-hearted and carefree. Question - is your unboxing technique inspired by the youtuber "AvE"?
Nope, never heard of that channel. There's a guy called Excessorize me who does gadget reviews whose technique was highlighted by Peter McKinnon.
Riktigt kul klipp Tomas! Känns dock som att det fattas lite på det nya siktet jämfört med det gamla... 😉
Ja skulle gjerne ha hatt bedre støtte for vindavdrift, det blir litt stusselig med en ordinær Plex. Men åpningen rundt center dot er +/- 4 cm alle veier (0,4 MRAD) som er min default vindhold på de fleste jaktskudd. Så vi får se om jeg blir fornøyd, til rådyrjakten vil iallefall 99,9% av skuddene mine være dekket. Pønsker på hvordan jeg skal modifisere BDC tårnet til bedre passe min preferanse for ekstern BDC.
Joined the R8 camp last week. I have to say this channel might have inspired the decision. I've been long time subscriber but had to switch my account. It's 9.3x62 but still crazy accurate. I've never shot just one ragged hole with my T3.. I'll be getting another barrel as soon as I decide between 6,5x55 and 6.5Creedmoor. Have you managed to shoot out R8 barrel yet? How many shots did it last and what would be your criteria to retiring a barrel? With the new scope, are you using one barrel for hunting and another for tacticool shooting right? Same or different calibers? Try and stay healthy there.
Glad to hear you are happy with your R8. Absolutely agree, very accurate barrel. No, I haven't shot out an R8 barrel yet but shot out a few R93 barrels. With 6,5x284 the barrel caved at 2400-2500 rds when flyers started appearing at 600m. Still shot plenty good for hunting. I haven't decided how to go with the scopes yet, will have to see how they "melt" into my setup. Good luck & see you on the other side!
A new Blaser-Screwdriver! :-)
It's awesome :D
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍⚡️🔥thank you Thomas
No problem!
nice video, what you mean, is better Infinity 4-20x50 or Z8i 3.5-28x50
thx for your answer, hello from slovakia =)
Sorry, unable to answer that. Have never used a Z8i.
I'm still wandering why they put the parallax knob on the wrong side 🤔 ps. You are always so delicate with things 🤣🤣🤣
What are you implying? 🦍🐵🐘🦏? Joke aside, I was explained it was to put all pointy parts on same side of the rifle. Will find out if it is a good idea or not, a trip to the range is one month away for me.
@@THLR whel i perfectly understand.... how is the situation in norway?
@@teo59 the numbers are climbing and supplies declining. If I understand the official statistics correct, close to 30% of all available intensive care posts are now occupied by Corona patients.
@@THLR i hope that you won't get to the same situationa that is here in italy! All the best thomas, take care!
@@teo59 good luck!
Packaging...feel your pain!
Packaging seems unable to reply, but thank you...
@@THLR HaHa!
Finally, you've seen the light with the rail system ! The only downside compare to ring mount is in case you need to mount accessories on the tube. Man that screwdriver looks like a sex toy.... :-)
Please don't explain how that screwdriver can be included in sexlife... Just wait, I'll be toting a K95 eventually :S
Are you familiair with Dentler's montages?
They also have a back to zero guarantee but unlike the blaster mounts you can mount multiple scopes on one mount.
Or you can your scopes in different barrels (in case of blaser r8 gun)
I have read about them, but these concepts are for some reason not very popular in Scandinavia, so I doubt I will find it anywhere.
scope reticle much different than your design but very practical for hunting ranges...variable size red dot WOW
No, the variable red dot size is on the 1-8 only. But there is new illumination technology in all scopes, and the quality is very good for daylight and twilight use.
@@THLR I have a couple 1-6x28 with simple green dot of varying intensity on Christi and my AR15-22LR TRAINERS ...like them better than our ACOG & ACSS on our AR15 5.56/.223s...on 1X acts as a red dot type optic but on 6X its good to 500m
@@cratxn1 at 4x I'm not going to get that effect, BUT I just put a battery in the scope and checked the red-dot. It had a very wide illumination range, so fully compatible with both daylight and proper twilight.
something is wrong, could it be the lack of numbers on the turrets?
Oh, they are there. They've integrated the BDC' just lift top turret. I doubt you'll see me without a BDC these days...
you are funny. :-)
Said my wife... never.
Finaly you got a Blaser Sponsoring?
No. I have done work for Blaser and been paid and tipped accordingly, but that is not connected to a sponsorship or UA-cam. If I am to work for anyone, I will expect payment for work done as that is how the western economy works. It is very simple: If I work for you, we set up a contract and you pay me for my labour. I am sure a sponsorshop is within reach if I ask, but I'm not really interested. For many companies, "sponsorships" is closer to modern day slave labour. UA-cam is a hobby, not something I'd need to make money off. I have a daytime job for that purpose.
Hi THLR.NO , is minox scope and sphur mount on sale ? :)
Nope.
I've been thinking about your "passion" for carrying a heavy gun..
I remember as a kid I carried a Remington 700 Classic 6,5x55 with an aftermarket trigger. Topped w Zeiss 6x42, Swarovski 7x42 binos around neck and a knife in my belt. Happy days, many good memories created. Probably weighed 5kgs total. sometimes wonder why I changed that setup, especially when I discovered that my "light" setup for mountains is now appr 17 kgs, my "normal" for forest etc is 22-24 kgs. I managed to get it down to 15 for the chamois hunt.
@@THLR ...getting old, like me, and going back to romantic childhood memories, ha, ha..
@@robertmagnstrom6088 I know. I'm currently dreaming of (and have been for 20 years) a K95, but I'm pretty sure I will not be happy with it. I am so used to shooting over bipod & sticks now that I would struggle to shoot with wobbling crosshairs again.
@@THLR so true..
You forgot the glue.
Liberal amounts will be applied when I fix my eye relief.
😂😂😂😂🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 more more more !!! Hunting videos will be income soon? 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻😜
Hopefully yes. I have no travel suggestions for you, we are locked down.
THLR.NO here in Spain we are for 12 days at Home 😫🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠
@@juanjoseermakimix1728 it's a good investment for the future.
No squat if you're not Slav 😅, Life of Boris .
Sorry, did not understand that one, but thanks? 😀
Ah ok,en UA-cam figur som kaller seg Life of Boris som har det som motto i mye livlige episoder med liv og røre.
@@MrPh30 takker, skal sjekke kanalen hans!
:D
Glad it brought a smile!
Clumsy whatever the reason!!
I beg to differ, it requires finesse to apply that much force and intensity without doing damage. :D
Blaser optics.....rebadged Minox optics.
No. Some if the same brainpower though.
THLR.NO true, but I can’t see Blaser double up on a sister companies production process.
Plus ain’t nothing wrong with Minox. I like my ZP5 a lot.
Hahahahah
You laugh? Mission accomplished!
have you seen Ryan's video?
ua-cam.com/video/gwDyjlc9388/v-deo.html
I have now, funny!
so expensive , buy vortex
No thank you. When you factor in the expense of taking days off + travel + hunting = that extra $ is not that much compared to what's at stake.
@@THLR vortex are distrib in europe
@@THLR ok its usa but its good quality for price
@@polopauletta9984 Yes, the scope is at an attractive price point, but it is the wrong place for me to save money. Buying a Vortex would risk the $$$ spent on a hunting trip. I need maximum shooting light and maximum resolution.
Such drama!!! J.
It was fun to make. Spiked some hearthrates though, even made some angry.
What’s that all about? You are damaging a product not promoting it!
It's a parody of unboxing vidoes. Promotion is not my job.
