but...... it will take a concerted effort for from the governing bodies and a public campaign to distance target shooters from gun nuts but .... thats not going to happen....... Julian With apologies, but you've touched a nerve.... What is a "gun nut"? Someone who thinks he/she should be ...

Is there any real possibility over there that the government might be persuaded to change their views (I hope so). None whatsoever, but I signed the petition anyway. I disagree, I believe there is a comprise that could be reached, but it would involved compromises for air guns, replicas, soft air e...

If you mean the world cup it is on http://www.issf.tv/

Get something with an electronic trigger

T I am wondering can you start them out with the pistol in a rest of some type to shoot, and possibly dry fire unsupported till they are stronger. then their trigger control will be better, dont fatigue as quick with better results straight up, a little less discouraging. For my $0.02 that is exact...

Yes, yes, I know what top shooters say: looks don't matter, so long as you get 10s, which is why their grips always look like a POS, hacked away here and puttied there. But personally, I have a different attitude: If you're not really any good, at least have a pretty gun. :) I have to side with you...

A dam good clean may also solve the problem. As Tcott (our host) once said it solves around 50% of 22 problems. If you are returning the Eley Biathlon Sport ( the only one labeled sport on the website) is is a 40 grain bullet running at 331 m/s Compare to Eley pistol ammo at 40 grain ans 314 m/s. It...

It differs per country. US National Team ?

Reason I don't know, but it pretty much standard on German/European pistols. I think of it as you are telling the gun "Your going high"....

Not sure which way British pistols go though any one know ?

This is the first I have heard of it, as far as I am aware the biggest threat at the moment is airguns. Currently their are several motions in Scotland to ban/control them more. Sadly according to a home office report (http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/rds/pdfs07/hosb0207.pdf) in the Uk ther were 21,521 ...

Does any one have, or know of any website, material for gettin kids started on pistol shooting

I to have been frustrated by this. I did some checking and I see that they have not used the <embed allowfullscreen="true" setting which would mean at the click of the square button at the bottom, the video screen could full screen size without altering their page layout. I have email them...

I have uploaded the picture of the fill adapter, as you will see the tip is flat to push the pin and there is a hole is the sided to let air in and out. I just tried it and it works very easily. I would recommend that you hold the adapterclean cloth and it gets quite cold get quite cold . the whole ...

Julian, my Morini 162E being a fixed cylinder gun, your method of purging isn't relevant, but it aroused my curiosity. I know removeable cylinder guns have a projection in the recepticle for the cylinder, to depress the valve pin as the cylinder is screwed in, and let air into the guns measuring ch...

When I spoke to Harry Preston (styer uk) about keeping the empty for storage, I was told don't worie about it. Personally I keep both of min full, but rotate then each time. so befor a shoot i put the full one on and fill the empty. I cant speak for morini, but i suspect it similar, for styer. I und...

It seems also that the speed/power of the LP50 is a little bit lower than the LP10, do not know why (to reduce recoil, but recoil is already very limited with the LP10, due to the semi-auto working ???). May be it is possible to set it up with the V0 screw as with the LP10 ? I dont know what the fa...

Thanks Dave, I knew it could not be a new idea.

I have been trying to add the google earth links the the wiki for the world cup venues (http://www.shootingwiki.org/index.php?title=Competitions#ISSF_World_Cups) I have found most of them; Changwon needs some improvement - I can find the down but dont know where to look for the venue. Surprise surpr...
