Here is an overview by Nugentgl of the compact ATN Shot Trak-X HD Action Camera which you can mount on almost any shooting or hunting weapon. Here is the manufacturer description... "Designed by Shooters for Shooters, the Shot Trak HD mounts on any rifle, handgun, or bow to capture incredible color video of your target in full HD (1920 x 1080p). Most action cameras today offer only a wide lens that may take great videos close up but fail miserably when attempting to capture your game at a distance. The Shot Trak HD delivers 5 times the Magnification of a standard action camera capturing your action perfectly every time. Its the best way to show off your victories to your friends and family back home and online. View your videos on a wide screen TV or a mobile device.
Used for: hunting, archery, target shooting, home defense and law enforcement."
SPEED Airsoft sends in information about the dual purpose use of their SPEED HPA Triggers as they can work with MOSFETs as well... "The SPEED HPA triggers will take full advantage of the M4 HPA engine in an AEG, by reducing the trigger pull tension and giving it full adjustability externally.
In addition to the M4 HPA engine conversion, the SPEED HPA triggers will also work with any M4 AEG with a MOSFET conversion that has an on-board micro-switch. The SPEED HPA trigger gives the MOSFET conversion the exact tuning ability equal to the HPA system. A MOSFET conversion with the SPEED HPA trigger is essentially equivalent to a HPA conversion on the field, but without an air hose connection.
For more info, visit SPEED Airsoft at www.SpeedAirsoft.com or get your SPEED products from SPEED authorized airsoft dealers worldwide."
