Re: New to 10m (and AP in general)

Hi, I am a former archer, but an injury a couple of years ago has made it impossible for me to continue to shoot with a compound bow. But I miss target practice, and since I always had a fascination for pistol shooting, 10m AP seems like a good match. I have set up an 10m indoor range and tried to ...

additional weights to pistol?

Some russian coaches, while discussing MP 651 as "entry level airpistol" , say that it has too heavy trigger (about 1000 gramm) and if it can be lessen to 500 gramm, the results will be improved greatly. Normally with 1000 gramm trigger pull teenagers can stay in "8" zone, but wi...

Re: Airguns for beginners

The pistols you mention have GREAT triggers. One of our local club members offered to loan us a IZH46 when one of my athletes was struggling with equipment issues. Several athletes commented on the amazing trigger qualities . . . Why not Izh46? The main reason is the weight. 2.86 pounds is much hea...

Re: Airguns for beginners

Why not Izh46 or MP46M? They both are obviously better than FAS6004 and can get you even to 585!
