Re: How much less accurate is the Steyr LP50 due to the trigger?

It's not as good as the Evo but once you get used to it, I doubt it will affect your accuracy.

Re: Inline filter for air compressor to remove moisture

For $500 do yourself a favor and get the GX Pump CS4. The pump is water cooled and runs at a low RPM so it doesn't build a ton of heat. Depending on the cylinder you are filling you may just need a small filter like this one. https://www.amazon.com/Creation-Core-Pressure-Water-Oil-Compressor/dp/B07M...

Re: PCP air compressor recommendation

Good Morning. Ok, I live in the USA and hae a number of scuba shops conveniently located throughout the area and compete at a number of ranges. I assist with filling the scuba tanks at the ranges when necessary. Personally, I own two aluminum scuba tanks myself for home use. Annual testing and insp...

Re: PCP air compressor recommendation

https://gxpumpofficial.com/ GX CS3-1 is in deep discount. What is the advantage of GX 4 except it is battery charged, mobile to carry into woods for your turkey hunts? Intrinsically, mechanically a better unit? The CS-4 is water cooled, has a grease pot that you turn every 4-6 hours, runs extremely...

Re: PCP air compressor recommendation

After buying multiple cheap Chinese shoebox compressors I would recommend the GX Pump brand. If you are just filling air pistol tanks, they will last a long time and you could get the CS-3i model for under $500 with a good water filter. If you ever plan to fill larger rifle or even smaller scuba tan...

I am thinking about picking one of these up and just wondered if anyone had an idea of how many pellets a roll of witness tape gets approximately and where to buy in the US?

Re: If I read correctly H.R.1808 The Assault Weapons Ban, also makes many Standard/Sport Target Pistols Illegal

This is exactly what happened in NY when they created the safe act and deemed any pistol with a mag forward of the grip and assault weapon.

Re: FYI: Problems with Recent CCI Ammunition

Well CCI was my go to ammo and with the new price increase it may just be time to switch brands. I will say that the new Light Blue box stuff seemed to shoot tighter groups in my Walthers then the older dark blue box ammo. I have a couple of the older more reliable cases left and then I will be swit...

Re: Ruger Mark IV Target for Bullseye Pistol?

I started with the Mark IV and moved up to a high $$ pistol thinking my scores would be much better and they were not. I gifted my Mark IV to my wife who outshoots me every time with it. It does have the V trigger and some other goodies.

The LP50 def doesn't have the same adjustability as some of the other triggers but still shoots real well.

Re: Walther SSP grip size

I found Walther grips to be oversized. I use a large for everything but all my Walthers using the factory grip are medium.

Re: Steyr LP50 Questions

Standard is about 480fps and I think the HP was closer to 700?? Yes you can easily swap the spring out yourself, Steyr has a video on their youtube page.

Re: Steyr LP50 Questions

When I talked to the very nice people at Pilk, I was told that they regulators can be turned up on the standard velocity LP50's and turned down on the HP or RF versions so I ended up getting the standard just so I could have more shots per fill. I went with the compact just so it resembled my BE pis...
