A minor adjustment, a Steyr qualified technician can fix that very quickly. Happened to me recently.

Hi Guys,

Sorry to go off subject slightly, but do any of you know where I can get a compensator for the 84 ?

Thanks,

Replies: 25

Having owned both a P44 and an LP10 I would say that they're not at all the same, partially because the design and balance of the pistol itself can affect how comfortable or "positive" the hold is. The grip on the P44 felt significantly different to the LP10 despite being the same size. I ...

The case arrived today, and on first inspection is excellent. The cut outs are perfect for both pistols and there are plenty of extra storage cut outs for spare cylinders and tools etc, I'm really pleased.

Many thanks to PaulT, I contacted Condor Cases, and they do indeed offer a bespoke case for the Morini, with cutouts for the free pistol (Morini, SAM or Pardini), and Air pistol. They're making it for me now and I'll feedback when it arrives. Costs £196.00 + 10.00 postage. No reference numbers for t...

Morini CM84E - UK spec case / bag available ?

I've just handed over a chunk of cash for a Morini CM84E "longarm" (UK Version). I was (more than) a bit disppointed to find that it didn't come with a case or a bag (despite what the instructions say!). I am therefore assuming that this is a common problem for all Morini Longarm shooters ...

I'm no expert but it looks like paint to me, and that would certainly be consistant with FWB manufacturing process, as per previous products.
I have noticed no deterioration of the silver finish on the cylinders as yet.

Those "scratches" also appear on my P44. Whilst the long term durability of the pistol has yet to be proven, I can't say I'm overly concerned.

CM 84E ammunition

I'm about to buy a Morini CM84E, any comments on which is the "best" ammunition to use ? i.e. does it "like" (generally speaking) one brand or another ?
Also, does everyone use the same ammunition in training as in matches ?

All comments gratefully received.

Have you tried LPM 1 instead of LMP 1 ?. LPM is correct.
It's a great gun, as long as it's been looked after.

Replacement grips should bolt straight on, and will completely change the feel of the gun. With a proper grip the hold will feel more secure and comfortable, and this can have a real effect on your shooting.

Michael, I used to own a FWB 100, and I loved it, great pistol and should give your years of good service as long as you look after it. As long as the pistol looks well treated (looks aren't everything, but there are some scrappy examples out there, and the more scratched and dented it is, the less ...

I agree with you Rob, I use them to account for differences in range and lighting, typically firing 10-15. If I'm "happy" after 4-5 then it's straight on into the match.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm trying to decide if I should even bother filling in the FAC forms, or spend the money on a backup air pistol.

I suppose not bothering would be a victory for the sensationalists, but I don't have enough spare cash to but a pistol just to find I have to surrender it later.

Longarms to be banned in UK ?

Sorry that this question only relates to the UK, but I see a lot of posts from UK residents and I have a question.

Does anyone have any information with regard to a potential ban on the Longarm pistol in the UK ? I'm hearing rumors that it might happen.

Any info gratefully received.

Feinwerkbau P40 (If you can get one new) and the new P44 both have the "groove" for loading also.

I got a new P44 on Friday, haven't had much of a chance to shoot much as yet, but so far the trigger and feel are great and once sighted in properly, I'm feeling confident that the scores will climb (I'm always confident that scores will climb !). The pistol is very light, nicely balanced, and a wor...

The LP10 and the P44 are both good guns, I have just gone from an LP10 to a P44 and loving it so far. It's all about the feel and the trigger.
