Finding a coach is tricky almost everywhere in the planet :) And it sucks

Re: Rear notch depth
Individual preference of each shooter. Try different depths and widths and see which one suits you best, then change it as your shooting changes if you find a need or you just want to explore it.

Re: Sport Pistol at 50’. Targets?
You can resize a target to any distance with https://www.olympicpistol.com/calculator and also figure out at which height the center of the target should be.

Re: Over filling cylinder
Do you have access to the filling station? Then you are being nitty picky :) If you rarely have access to it then buy a pump and fill your pistol cilinders to about 150: good for more than a 120 shot training session (unless you've increased the speed of your shots) and easier than exerting yourself...

Plus the original model can be used as screw drivers to adjust windage and height.

Re: Champion Glasses Upgrade
You are looking at your front sight, so it does not matter. Some pistol shooters use the smaller size lenses used by rifle shooters basically because that's what they found second hand.

Re: electronic target vs paper target
I wrote a review of the Inband Air: https://www.olympicpistol.com/inband-ai ... et-review/ It used to be priced about €1000. You will have to buy or make a pellet stopper too.

Re: Air Pistol Hold and Gap Control
Don't look at the target. Focus on your front sight and on keeping the same sensation and position

Two shots in an electronic target. It looks like they are the ears of Mickey Mouse. I love it when it happens. Much better than a sombrero (string of shots around the 10)

Help debugging Pardini HP feeding issues
My Pardini HP (.32 S&W wadcutter version) has lots of trouble with feeding. I cannot shoot a full 5 round series without having at least one cartridge failing to chamber and resting in a diagonal from the magazine to the side of the cannon. Sometimes it happens when trying to load the first roun...

Re: Modifying AP grip to be more similar to .22 grip?
It is a question of wrist angle. You just get used to both. You don't have to change body position.
Body position for me changes when doing rapid fire disciplines with air or fire pistols.

Re: Follow through or not?
If you don't follow through, at least a bit, you will end up anticipating the shot release and relaxing your locks and hold too early.
