I need a bird launcher but cannot afford a new one. If you have one you are willing to let go for a good deal pm me please.
Thank you

I used a manual launcher that costs about $65 until I had the money to buy remote launchers. You can retro fit them with a remote. I think there might be a post on here that showed the retro fit and another that showed home built using parts from radio shack.Try the search.

What State/province do you live in? I might have one.

i bought the manual and did the remote part DIY. Here is the link to the one i did. The wiring was a little tricky but does work.

I rigged a manual set up out of a string and basket and it did not work at all. The problem was my pup learned that the string lead to the bird and instead of pointing he would put is nose down and fallow the string. That is the reason I am looking for a remote launcher. I am not working and going to school right now so it would be hard for me to buy a new remote launcher, just thought maybe someone has an extra one they want to sale.
Thanks
