Since all of us know that our mind cannot do 2 things at the one time , the shifting of either of the these 2 could result a off-center shot. Wou...

Grip size comparison between Rink & Morini

Hi , switching to shoot a Morini 162ei , feel that the the volumn hold of the factory grip is a bit too bulky , seems too much to grind out though , wondering if a Rink for Morini of the same size is smaller than the factory's ; which they do in the Steyr grips. Appreciate all inputs.

Front Sight Picture or Trigger Management

Lately , I have come across this subject : at the below 6 aiming zone - the last seconds before the release , one should put his full focus at the front sight - (some shooters have been exclaiming FRONT SIGHT ONLY , FRONT SIGHT ONLY) , or put his full focus on the trigger execution - (these shooters...

Best check yours before going to a competition.

Re: Rink Grip LP10E vs Regular grip

I agree with Leon. Yet , the support plank at the base is a bit short on the Rink , modification might be needed.

Re: Aftermarket Steyr AP Grips For Short Fingers?

Trying on the Rink from your college team will answer my opinion on the fit. I think you will like it. Today , I put the Rink on the LP10 , with adjustment on the mid finger & overhang , it felt good.

Re: Aftermarket Steyr AP Grips For Short Fingers?

Removing or whittling the metal plate , might create some woobling , pls be careful. Thinning the wood in the web would help , but a small amount , do it carefully , that area is thin. Some people totally take off the screws at the rear.

"Usually air rifles "like" heavier pellets, while pistols tend to prefer the lighter ones." Would there be damages made to the pistol , if I used air rifle pellets in shooting pistol ?
