Hi Johnathon, I'm less knowlegeable than you, therefore I don't know either. But I do want to let you k...

Dear John, The electronic trigger will fail first because the twin holding it will hit his brother over the head, damaging head and trigger alike....

Hi Mochi, Good luck with your visit to Prado. The last I checked, the airgun hall
was closed to air gun shooters. They now use it for parking their vehicles and
hosting scheduled parties. That is why we are looking for a place to have
10 meter air pistol matches.

?? I guess you mean trigger weight?? adjust trigger to lift a 500 gram
weight with out releasing the sear, plus some extra ounces for security.
Sorry, but I don't understand your fps contingency.

Hi bzzzz, just a loose bunch of shooters scattered around so cal. Someday
we just might set up a ten meter AP range at Whittier Narrows. I believe
Greg Knutsen and others are working on it. Meanwhile, practice where and
when you can; hallway, garage, backyard, bedroom, closet, etc...

Hi Phil, Yes you can dry fire...sorta... just lift the upper section partially, until you hear a light click, which is a cocking of the trigger. the Compact will release the sear but no air is expelled because it seems none was sucked into the cylinder; so dry fire away, if you wish. If you really a...

Hi Jonathon, I'll be there. I haven't talk to my son Raphael lately, but he vowed
to be there at 0800 to ensure we get the 25yd range. I've only been training
with my AP and that's been primarily dry fire.

I'm sure this question has been beaten to death time and time again, and I apologize, but I am new to air guns. I am a pistol shooter, and would like to obtain an olympic quality air pistol.

Kate , You are very lucky/unlucky. I've fired about 300 rounds of CCI Std

FEG GPM-01 Trigger Adjustment

Hello Guys, I just bought this air pistol a few weeks ago, and the trigger is set way too light..lighter than the factory set my Morini 84e! I got it from an old, experienced Silhouette shooter; they like triggers set that way I guess. I have done some homework and studied internet postings for fill...
