Re: Scuba tank

I was diver and am now an AP shooter. I NEVER heard of anything like that, and am now shooting a recently inspected steel tank.

Shot my TOZ this a.m. with CCI Standard, CCI Quiet, Eley, and cheap-ass Federal.

Federal worked easiest.

Re: Morini Air Cylinder Gauge

Good advice above.

In my personal use, I consider them pretty useless since I would always fill before a match or practice. Since the gauges are just another place for the cylinder to leak from, I just would forget it. I grant that this would cause agony to the anal.

Re: Wider rear sight for Walther GSP

Fix it yourself. Take the smallest blade (most useless) and open it with a Swiss file. You really can't screw up. MY preferred method would be to take a 3/16" chainsaw file (very cheap at the hardware store) and file a half-moon notch. It's REALLY hard to screw it up. The Russians were very suc...

Re: .22 Ammo For Free Pistols That Won't Stick in Chamber?

I've had the same problem with my TOZ. Like you, I used something to poke it into the chamber and closed the breech to fully chamber.

It depends entirely upon which company gives free or heavily discounted guns to the top shooters.

Please don't be naive enough to tell me "it ain't so."

Re: shooing high/right even after I spot my shots.

Move the 3 o'clock answer to 2 o'clock and you've got it.
