Re: Hammerli AP20 Pro general impressions and grips

I think the AP20 Pro is one of the bargains in a not very crowded market. In the U.S. the Hammerli AP20 PRO price is $1,095. https://www.champchoice.com/search?q=ap20%20pro The Hammerli AP20 is $890. https://www.champchoice.com/mc-airgun/air-pistols/hammerli-ap20-match-air-pistol-ambidextrous-279800...

Re: freETarget

Substitute an air rifle target for the air pistol target, and shoot at 5.13 meters without having to do custom printing. That is very close to the 6 yards you are shooting at now. The actual scoring rings are NOT correct, so you cannot 'score' your target and expect scaled results. But the bullseye ...

Re: You wanna buy WHAT?

I had an Alfa Proj that I loved and shot my best score with, a 556 IIRC back around 2011. I loved the balance of the Alfa Proj. It did not hold up well over time I see that the Alfa Proj is now priced at around $1,100 which strikes me as ridiculous. Wild how the prices vary so much. $1,809.99 https...

Re: Lp50?

Depending on the match, they may have equipment inspections. In that case they may check the manufacturing date of your cylinder. Older than 10 years is not allowed at ISSF sanctioned events. Factor in the price of a new cylinder if buy a used gun if you will participate in those matches.

Re: Range Day for SASP Coach Training

Hello kbean,
Scheduling for SSSF Pistol Coach class can take place thru the SASP National office or thru the local agency that manages the Coach training for your state (if there is a partnership agreement for that state). Only the National Director can answer that.
