    buy a headstrap mount ,i got mine in the post today ,used the camera on the gun but wouldnt recommend it can be akward and have to point at everything to get good video

    ...can i get a mount to fit to the shotgun?i can only see ones for underneath semi autos:(.

    Depends.

    What do you want to do with the shotgun - what do you want to video. A lot of shooting or just a few shots?

    I have an 870 with a picatinny rail, scope, and XTR rings.

    There is a XTR ring top that has a picatinny rail on top for mounting lamps and such. They make a go pro adapter that will mount to any picatinny rail.

    Aside from that, you could try the go pro roll bar mount which should fit somewhere on the shotgun.

    Otherwise, just get some kind of superglue/adhesive to permanently stick one of the flat or curved mounts on the side.

    I think getting a picatinny rail on the underneath of the stock may be your best option. Is the scope receiver drilled and tapped?

    ok so ,i got the roll bar mount and was only ok but tried out the head strap today (go pro strap)and lads no comparison the strap keeps the camera firm to the head and will not flop around the place it was class watching back the video today on the tv ,buy the headstrap and dont settle for less

    I can't stress how good the quality is in the camera. and going home and watching through a hd tv and watching the dogs work i.e my young pup and concentrating on her work . It's a fierce useful tool .highly recommended

    downloaded the app on my phone the official go pro app. you can stream the video from the camera to the phone wireless and also use the phone as a remote to control the camera. you can also stream live footage to the camera another part of go pro that blows my mind !

    Freaked out the missus doing this from my phone. Hid the camera in the conservatory & every now & then walk in & repeated something she did. Got great mileage out of it til she got cross :D

    Bought my Hero 3 black in the states,saved about 200 quid,mine is attatched to my speargun,you can get mounts for spearguns that are adjustable and would fit a shotgun,have a look on www.diveinn.com or www.spearfishing.de .

    Enjoy.

    Got mine today too😊 363 euro delivered to the door. Hero 3+ black. Hopefully the micro sd card will show tomorrow. How long does the battery last filming? Is there must to the editing? A phrase the old man always uses comes to mind " all the gear and no idea" !

    Dust off the credit card again my friend. One wont be enough. The 3+ is meant to be better but if you get 1.5 hrs out it I would be very happy.
    My normal 3 gets an hour & 15 mins ish...
