I love my Foxpro Scorpian.

When I use mine in the rain I just have it in a glade lock bag to keep the rain off them. I have seem them get pretty wet and not have a problem but thats alot of money to chance lossing. :twocents:

Title: Nice workmanship on the custom case
Post by: ivarhusa on January 07, 2009, 08:34:59 AM: Killbilly did you right! :tup: That case shows excellent workmanship. I am impressed with the perforations that let the sound through. Well done. (And, no, I don't have a need for such a case myself. I am just admiring...)

Post by: bearmanric on January 07, 2009, 10:38:38 AM: they have those case's at sportsman warehouse. i have no desire to call in the wind and rain. i ruined a Loudmouth because a guy talked me into using in in pouring down rain with the speaker up. just got two customer's call's turned. now working on killbilly's as soon as it cool's down i'll get out.

He made those holes with a soldering iron I believe. Works pretty good. I don't like predator hunting in the rain, but sometimes it catches you off guard and this case keeps it safe.

Title: Re: GOT MY FOXPRO FURY
Post by: Ray on January 08, 2009, 09:20:53 AM: Do those things ever freeze up? I ask because the other day we went out and the one we used (it was not a FoxPro by brand) froze up in the cold after about 15 mins.
Title: Re: GOT MY FOXPRO FURY
Post by: Antlershed on January 08, 2009, 09:27:40 AM: Ray, I have the FX3 and had it out last weekend when it was 27 degrees and mine worked just fine. In fact, the remote worked from about 300 yards away and over a hill (was just testing it).

Post by: bearmanric on January 08, 2009, 09:55:55 AM: no there isnt any moving part's. is what i was told. there used alot in alaska. Rick

Post by: rasbo on January 08, 2009, 10:01:18 AM: wow I looked up the price of the fury..better not freeze up,I might have to draw up a prenup in case we split up :yike:

I believe you..its on my wish list .I started calling in se Idaho,an old guy got me going..Im really into close,some folks would complain about the cold,when it was 20 degrees to well below zero I would get stoked.I had a huge area to hunt,plus every farmer and rancher wanted ya there..I miss that.In the early eighties the pelts went for decent money,average dog 45 to 50and good ones 90 to 100,for a weekend warrior that was serious money in idaho
