Monster found in Devon!!!!!
« on: September 26, 2008, 08:57:02 PM »

A couple of weeks ago I ventured across the border into Devon to see if the reports about the quality of Redback were true. After some careful inspections and many questions to Gary I decided to order something special for myself. Now after a short wait the beast has been collected and I have to share it with you.

It is a Allegiance LE and quite simply is massive for 2.12 and does pick up light, with my eyes closed I would say 2.9 C6+ Uzi style which can be proved as I have one here to compare, see photo's. Made from a very light cleft it out guns many more prestigious models from other big brands and you will not find many rivals for it anywhere. It has been fitted with the standard stickers until the new ones are finished. 20 grains and big oval handle, what more could you want.

I cannot give a full review due to the season ending because of the sun and lack of rain but having tapped it with the hammer it is very soft pressed and will be too good for my standard but I don't care, it's mine.... Did I mention how bloody huge it is, massive, simply massive and I've had some big bats before.

I will now entertain questions.

Have already ordered mine, should be with me early part of this week and will post pics when it arrives. Have to recommend Gary's service though, was excellent - very helpful and easy to communicate with!

Where does Gary find all this wood from!? Laver reckon a 10 grain bat is too good for a Private Bin for god sake!

Lovely bat mate, scoring runs will be much easier with that stick by the looks of things!
