Can anyone give me some idea?

I believe its approximately equivalent of 1.5Kg force applied to it.

Thank you Robin, Probably people with small hands may have a better chance to be a top shooter :) , anyway I'm not in that league either way.

Hello all, While I was surfing through the images of shooters on Issf-sports.org, I stumble upon some thing, I felt interesting that 'most of the top air pistol shooters I found there, are keeping their trigger shoes all the way to the back or so'. Is it a coincidence or are there any real scientifi...

This extra difficulty may add tension and anxiety and all sorts of involuntary muscular effort. Also, it takes longer to decide when to operate the trigger. It's true, There was some added issued with my grip. It was a large one with little extra space above my middle finger so my middil finger's t...

I am sure it is the notorious picture angle.

Its a different match but you may have a look at 1.46 if you wanna see the same pistol.

It is difficult to criticize from just a photograph." May be David is right, She is among the Top 5 Air Pistol shooters in world, She won more than 14 Medals including including 8 world cup golds and one Olympic gold medal, what i've found she was using this pistol on most of the time and I ca...

and your point of posting this photo is? I thought I've cleared my point of posting this photo on my first post, I had my palm shelf extended back but not this high, even though I've asked to cut it off up to my palm or below the joint of wrist, otherwise it will be illegal and will get disqualifie...

Hello all, I'm posting this out of confusion and curiosity, Can we have a palm shelf extending this much? I had a 'L' grip and I was forced to grind off the extended length of it's palm shelf as advised by some senior shooters it may lead to a disqualification, but in fact it was not this high on my...

Try hosting somewhere else, like photobucket, picassa, image shack, etc... and then hotlinking via the "IMG" button, it'd look something like this: No Brian, I don't think changing the image host will make a target look like that ;) it may require little more of that so called 'trigger co...

Some where around 155 cm seems to be works for me.

You need to know your own height (or the height of the guns sights on aim at 10m) because you are trying to replicate 'normal' position and aiming, and basically triangulate down to 3M. So if your sights are at 170cm then the target at 3M should be at about 160cm. Rob. Thanks Rob, My sight is at 16...

Hi, I made a 3m reduced target for 10m AP, which I thought of, use for putting on wall for dry fire practice. I used downloaded version of Scatt for print it, but I can't find the information on what hight have to put it, I know standard hight of 140cm is not going to applicable for reduced one at 3...

Huge downside of the e-models though is the grip adjustment, which is far more limited and difficult to customize than on the mechanical Steyrs. Is it true? My understanding was Unlike Morini Electronic, Steyr can have all the grip adjustments which are possible on mechanical version , at least in ...

Thank you all for help, like FredB said there are some issues with my grip I'm forcing the hold it's not my NPA, need to find an expert for fixing it. No my head is not tilting but as Mike and others advised I did some dry firing on spot with loose small finger and it seems works but still need to t...

....but this will be eating up my time.... That's why you get 105 minutes for 60 shots (plus sighters). Are you sure that your grip strength is the same for dry firing and live firing. You are right, Just now I did some dry fire tests on blank wall and also with a small spot on it, I felt my grip s...

Hello everyone, I'm following this forum for some time, it did helped me a lot. I shoot with LP10 with an average 88 to 91% but on further improving my score I stuck-up some where, let me explain, when I do dry fire on a blank wall my sight aliments are perfect and trigger pull is smooth and effortl...

Basically , one attempts to create imaginary figure of eights over the target. Why? I've seen similar exercise advised to the pistol shooters for making their hold more study and light it uses a dumbbell for Tracing a figure of '8' both vertically and horizontally, I found this under Special Exerci...

All of this disparaging posting is really too bad. The IZH 46M is an affordable, reliable, competition-grade gun. The technology my be outdated, but that's what you get for the price. There sure as hell isn't anything else even close for the money. I second sbtzc, I started with this gun, because i...
