Some pointers are available now with a huge discount: all MultiPin pointers (1″, 30 mm and 34 mm) and the 1″ versions of SmartPin. Please have a heart and take them, else they will be put down! ;-)
C’mon folks while the stocks last!
This is the latest member of the growing family of FolloWing / SteadyWing Adapters, an adapter for the new Feinwerkbau P700 and P800 stocks:
When ordering a FolloWing or SteadyWing hook extension for your FWB, please have a look at the picture below to decide, which adapter version you need ( A, B or C when ordering the product):
Nothing new, just the good old SmartPin, but with a longer scale…
If you’ve got a sidewheel with a bigger diameter, or got a S&B scope, or simply want to use the same sidewheel label for all the four seasons, you might find that the standard scale is not enough. This new version of SmartPin / SmartPin Linear / SmartPin Extra S&B has got a longer scale, I added an extra 10 mm to it.
What does this mean? Here are the adjustment ranges of the pointers, standard / extended version:
SmartPin (with pins): 20 mm / 30 mm,
SmartPin Linear: 15 mm / 25 mm,
SmartPin Extra for S&B: 24 °C / 36 °C (equals 20 mm / 30 mm).
This new version of SmartPin Extra has some other features, too: 3 mounting point for the magnifier, more distance between the thumb screw and the magnifier, and the magnifier can be ordered with a simple Fresnel lens or with a high quality acrylic lens. Please note that the short versions of this pointer did not change.
These new versions will be available for 30 and 34 mm scope tubes only. The first few pointers are already being printed, if you place an order (via backorder) now, they will be dispatched in 2-3 weeks.

At the product page you can choose the shorter or longer scale.
The first batch of GAPacity S-III sidewheels was sold in full before the dye dried on them :-)
A new print batch has been sent out already, they will be ready at the end of August. Please place your order in time if you’d like to have one!
At the product page GAPacity Sidewheel, select S-III scope and SmartPin Linear pointer at the options, these two come on a bulk price if bought together. When selected the appropriate options, you will see the number of the available wheels. Other wheels can be ordered on backorder.
I designed a new experimental sidewheel. Its shape is quite unusual, but this is not about only the ‘design’, this wheel has got a special feature: all the gaps are the same between 32-50 m (35-55 yds), every 5 m distance equals a 10 mm gap on the wheel. The big hole at the end is comfortable to adjust the wheel, also the other big hole can be used for quick adjustments.
There is a mark on the wheel, you have to mount the sidewheel in a way that this mark goes to the 50 m (55 yds) distance. After this, if you mark the other distances, you will find that all the longer distances are distributed evenly and with nice big gaps.
The sidewheel works together with my SmartPin Linear adjustable pointer. Compatible scopes are Nikko MK1/MK2 and Sightron S-III at the moment. (Also S&B, Nikko MK3, Leupold Competition and Leapers Accushot now).
The gaps for the shorter ranges are nearly equal and not so much bigger.
A Nikko MK1/MK2 wheel has been sent out to print already, can be bought on first come first serve basis. Now on introductroy prices, see product page: GAPacity Sidewheel. It can be ordered with the appropriate linear pointer on the same page.
I designed a few more variations of ZoomR magnification lever. ZoomR is for those, who are fed up with the cheap fishing coasters, and want to use something that is worthy of their scopes and the other Maestro Design products on it.
The handle has got a perfect grip even in rainy conditions, and can be operated even with only one finger. The ring size and inside fits to many different scopes: Leupold, March, Sightron and S&B on the photo below, and also Nikko MK1/MK2/MK3 versions can be ordered. If you have an other scope model, I’ll design your own ZoomR!
The Schmidt&Bender version on my scope.
And another one on a 80x magnification March. The lever fits both to the new and old models.

Laser sintered stock for a Walther LG-300 Dominator. The good old thumb-up style RaptoR feeling but made of laser sintered Nylon, only the accessory rail is aluminium. It uses standard Anschütz accessories for mounting the cheek piece and forend.
A special version of RaptoRail for Anschütz, with black anodising and stainless steel screws:
The standard colour is the silver, but sometimes special editions will be manufactured, too :-)
Now you can see how the InkWell works with the UK Neil pellet sizer. The sizer fits into the neck, and the body collects the sized pellets. Fallen pellets simply can’t mix with the sized ones, and they will be held by the wide top.
The InkWell can hold more than 300 pellets, but it fits tightly into a standard JSB tin, so if you remove the bottom plate, you can collect the pellets directly into the tin. And now some words from the first owner (I designed this thing upon his request anyway):
“great service Andras
thank you for the pellet holder,[ink well] for my UKneil sizers,i found the sizers were too small and fiddly in use, your holder now has transformed my pellet sizing to a quick and efficient process,the sizer snugly fits into the holder….,in use any dropped pellets are caught on the generous well top this saves loose pellets rolling around the table, and the whole holder can be placed in an empty pellet tin [jsb exacts in my case],i size about a hundred pellets in one session and the holder will easily hold this with out constant lifting .. thanks again
