Any irish based web shops selling crow callers? Thinking along the lines of the acme crow caller, 20 euro in my local gun shop. Seems dear? Oh and he doesnt have one in stock of course..:confused::confused::confused: Makes it hard to buy stuff if they wont stock it... Anyone have any better call to recomend?

I remember buying the Acme caller for about £4 years ago,so €20 seems crazy,I've been using it on occasions when it attracted seagulls too.

The acme crow call is quite good, at €20 the owner of that gun shop should be jailed:mad:, I only paid about €7 for mine.

Anyone used the one made by sam/corvid the Belgium guy? Sounds good on youtube when he is using it. Just wondering is it hard to get the sounds out of it he does?

Although I dont think they are legal to use here for hunting, I brought one of the electronic Cass Creek crow callers back from the States.

It brings in crows from miles around. I dont shoot them, just have a laugh when they will literally land 10 foot from me if I am hidden. At one point it is like a scene from Hitchcocks "The Birds"!!!
