cszakolczai,

Thanks for the link and advice, I will look into an external flash as well. I settled on a Cannon XSI, I almost got the T1i, but I got a better deal on the XSI. I picked up a 18-55mm, 55-200mm, and Ultra wide angle lenses for it plus a great tripod.

The rifle has a 10.5 inch barrel w/ a surefire scout light and a surefire suppressor.

Personally, I think these photos came out like crap. The ones above where shot in a dark room with only the light from the 2 surefires bouncing off of 4 walls.

TR,

Thank you for the advice I'll shall start my research on reflectors and lighting. I fear this maybe the expensive part of photography...
