Re: Is this beavertail legal?
By as much as I can see from the one picture and your description I would check that it would fit in the 420mm x 200mm x 50mm equipment control box and assure that there is no downward sweep moving backward from the web of the hand. See page 383. https://backoffice.issf-sports.org/getfile.aspx?mod=d...

Re: What is SASP?
Post Covid, due to reduced budget and staff in the NRA Competitions Division, the NRA's sponsorship of collegiate championships in international style pistol (standard, sport and air) was discontinued. The NRA collegiate pistol shoulder-to-shoulder national championships had been conducted since 198...

IZH CM-2 rifle problem
During a youth team practice the bolt came out of a CM-2 rifle. Somehow the parts are now in an orientation that is not correct and the bolt cannot be reinserted. It appears to be in a cocked orientation but we cannot reinstall the front part of the bolt. Looking for any suggestions from someone tha...

Re: Cheating at ISSF Olympic Qualification Championship 2024
Do gloves have to meet the stiffness standard of 7.5.2.2? If so, how is it measured? Gloves are mentioned as clothing under 7.5.1.1 and it states that the material must be flexible so I assume that it must meet the stiffness test. I doubt the plastic like material most shooters have on the back of t...

Hammerli 104 free pistol sighting-in problem
I have an old free pistol question. I have a Hammerli 104 that is shooting about a foot high at 50 yards with the rear sight as low as it will go. Has anyone had a similar problem and how did they fix it? Anyone have suggestions on how to (best?, easiest?) increase the front sight height? Any help w...

It's not the weight, it's the stiffness.

FWB 300S (sort of) problem
I have a Chinese knock-off of a FWB 300S. The last time I used it, which was a number of years ago, it worked pretty well. Recently I had it out and wanted to look at the condition of the breech seals so I pulled the cocking arm all the way back. Now it is solidly locked in the open position. No mat...

Re: Club/youth smallbore rifle options
Remington 540XR and 540XRJR are sort of like a CM-2. I prefer them. To improve the gun you can switch out the Williams rear with a Redfield. I even have changed out the Lyman front with an old 18mm Anschutz with the appropriate height base to give a wider range of available front apertures. Of cours...

Anschutz 1907/1912 trigger adjustment
I have several 1907/1912 rifles used by my college team. Yesterday, I had a shooter that was able to shoot one shot and then the sear would not engage. I tried to adjust the screw that the manual says controls the engagement, but to no avail. Now, no matter what I try, I cannot get it to work. Any s...

FWB Models 2, C5, C10, C55, & C60 cylinder availability
Is there a source of new CO2 cylinders for FWB Models 2, C5, C10, C55 and/or C60?
None of mine have failed. Have replaced the seals on a few.
Most are still working fine, some after almost 30 years.
Just trying to find some that are legal for USAS, CMP and SASP competitions.

Old shooting jackets and pants
Looking for a recommendation on what to do with pretty old shooting jackets and pants. Would these be of any use to anyone or should I just trash them? I have black leather outside with canvas inside ISU style 10X and Hawkeye brand jackets from the 1970's and 1980's. (used) Also, some heavy 10X coat...

Re: BG international pistol?? And Britarms pistol questions
Only experience with model 2000 is that I bought one at auction in 2004. It has been sitting in my safe since then. Got it out recently just to test fire it. The only thing I can say is that the top feeding design is terrible when you need to clear a misfire or a jam. Seems to me that the gun is pre...
