This item isn't there anymore (or not available in the US). Do you have the STL for it?

Thanks!

Re: RF Pistol Weights - Schumann and EVO-4

Thank you for the info. I am also curious on the internals. I thought there would be something fancy lurking inside for the price.

Re: TOZ35 Rear Sight - Worn Out?

A replacement spring sounds like a good solution. I'll get some measurements and see if I can find a suitable replacement. Thanks everyone for the advice. If anyone has already found a suitable replacement for the spring or the tips, let me know!

TOZ35 Rear Sight - Worn Out?

The windage and elevation adjustments on my TOZ 35 are not as solid as they used to be. Sometimes it is hard to feel the clicks or they skip.

Any remedies?

TIA,

Front Sight / Grip Inconsistency

I am seeing some front sight inconsistency (in terms of lining up between the rear blades) as I shoot for longer periods. Not sure what I am doing but I assume I am changing pressures as my hand losing some feeling. Does anyone have a suggestion? I thought about adding a little notch or two to refer...

RF Pistol Weights - Schumann and EVO-4

Pardini SP - Front Plate Screws

Does anyone know the measurements and thread of the Pardini SP front plate screws? This is the plate that holds the springs and weights around the barrel.

Refreshing or resetting eyes between shots

My eyes are a bit sensitive and I notice that they seem to fatigue after shooting a little. If I take a break I can get them to "reset" but getting 10 clear shots in a row is a bit of challenge. My prescription is good and a grey color lens seems to help. I've heard of looking at something...

Pardini SP Weight Clamp

Watching the Junior World Champs recently and saw some weight clamps for the Pardini SP that go over the magazine well. You can see them at the 17:27 mark in this video: https://www.youtube.com/live/hRLCzMAiLI4?feature=share&t=1047 Who sells these or what is the official name of them? My researc...

Free Pistol Shorter Front Sight

For those of that don't or can't drop the wrist as far for the Free Pistol, like a TOZ. Do you just cut the front sight height to where it naturally sits went you grip? The grip fits well and it seems easier to modify the front sight.

Weight Added to the Palm Rest

I have seen a few competitors with weight added to the palm rest for air pistol and .22. Looks like it was drilled and lead or some other material added. I assume to get some more control over the balance of the pistol.

Has anyone done this and found a benefit or it is another rabbit hole?

Hand Swelling in AP

My grips feel a little different from practice to practice and match to match. I would assume swelling or similar things to blame.

Is there a way to keep this more consistent? I dry-fire to get the feel for the day but curious if there are other ideas.

TIA
