Does the FAS as depicted in the photo look like it would meet ISSF rules with regard to size??? The grips look like they would disqual the gun. It looks like it would fit the bill. Sight radius looks OK, pretty sure it would fit "into the box", grip seems to meet all the requirements - th...

Another excellent resource to locate pistol shooting books (or any book for that matter) is www.bookfinder.com
No matter how obscure a book might be, chances are someone somewhere is selling it.

I was initially going to add this to our current thread on match .32’s (“none perfect”?) but realised this was starting to get a little off topic! I have recently acquired a FAS 603 .32 in near-new condition. It was in the hands of a dealer (new) for about 5 years before being purchased by its previ...

You mentioned a .32 Domino revolver. Never heard about that one. Was it a last try from Domino to make a functional gun? Their semis had a bad reputation for malfunctions. Please, bring information, someone. They are for sale at... http://www.dominoguns.com/prod_revolver1.htm The theory that was su...

So what is left? Not much. Why are not the .32s any better than this? One other semi-auto to add... Tesro TS32 The new kid on the block. Haven’t heard anything about them yet. Reportedly designed by an ex-Walther design engineer (and it shows), looks like it could be front-heavy. Available in the E...

Here is the full report as posted by Fox Sport (Australia). Shotgun events seems to be in a worse position than pistol or rifle. =============== Athens shooting venue blasted By John Thirsk April 16, 2004 MICHAEL DIAMOND's final shot at a third Olympic Games has hit another obstacle with fellow gold...

There was a major design flaw in the electronic board which I suspect was frying the transistors. Walther refused to acknowledge the extent of the problem and offered little support. A number of different versions of the circuit were tried, but the problem kept re-appearing. Walther pulled the pisto...

It's pretty good once you get used to it. I still miss being able to quickly scan a thread and see the number of replies directly from the main page though. One other thing is now that the forums have split into different areas, I am no longer keeping up with the issues being discussed outside of my...

New Zealand is thankfully more sensible than Australia in this regard. Airguns (i.e. both pistols and rifles) are not regarded as "firearms" (as defined by the legislation), but are controlled under that same legislation (Arms Act 1983). The gist of it is that anyone aged 18 or older can b...

Did you find out any more about the revolvers? Sadly, absolutely nothing! Are there any Italian speakers out there who would be willing to email the website using their language skills to find out more? At 660 Euros (about $800 US) it is roughly about half the cost of the Manurhin .32 match revolve...

You may have already come across this, but if not, it is worth a look www.pilkguns.com/c13.htm Something to add which a pistol coach recently told me regarding the 20 second series. Many people shoot the 20 second string like a "slow rapid" series rather than (as it should be) a fast preci...

I was trawling through the net when I came across this interesting item. I didn't think anyone was making .32 target revolvers except Manhurin (and I suppose converted TOZ 49's), so I was quite surprised to see this on the website of an Italian dealer of ISSF gear. To confuse matters, the dealer / d...

Has anyone seen any pictures of the Athens Shooting range? I have not heard a mention of it. Go to www.athens2004.com Copy and paste "Markopoulo Olympic Shooting Centre" into the search box and click on search. One of the results should be "Markopoulo Olympic Shooting Centre. Works i...

Though as Mike has pointed out, while the triangular shaped foresight on the SP20 is an interesting innovation, it is not without its problems. I have seen two SP20's both with the same problem of not being able to adjust the sights to the extent of enabling for centre-hold for the duelling section ...

Hi Folks My first post since the TT change-over (so I hope I don't stuff it up). I've got my eye on a Fas 603 (.32) which is being sold at a very resonable price. It appears to have had very little use (the owner claims less than 1000 rounds since new). Just wondering if any owners (or ex-owners) ca...
