I removed A LOT of steel from the grip mount, and plan to do a bit more boring on the grip mount, there is plenty to take out, just afraid of vibration in the future, so I am going step by step.
Some people just cut it off and do a top release lever, don't want to do that yet.

Like your weight idea. The reason I had to reduce weight was to make it about the same as my air pistol. My arm was hurting by the 40th shot, in free pistol, and quality of shooting went down at that point, I tried aerobic and the funny ball but the gun was still too heavy for my comfort. That might...

Clean with strong jet of air, clean with some type of oil, I used Break Free, then wipe excess.
Or do the mentioned above, get the mechanism apart and polish.
The trigger can be very smooth, mine was.

The only thing you should have to pay for is to change o-ring part 35, and that is if it ever a leak develops, never heard of one such case. Getting the compression cylinder out is not for beginners, you need some torque applied to get that cylinder moving out of place, everything else is very easy ...

Don't you need eye protection at all times when shooting.
I second the idea of cheap frames with specific prescription, believe it is called the mid range prescription, in case you use glasses at all.

You need to find the size of that catch rail on the Baikal, the TEC-HRO are the ones that best account for a variable catch, but make sure they fit, because the catch looks bulky

Also like the heart bit and trigger finger monitors idea of the scatt? That is for the second phase. Is the Z axis of importance at all? Can it be incorporated, or it would need infrared for distance to target registry? This is certainly third phase. The botom of this page http://www.scatt.com/softw...

NateG, I find the data analyzes idea of great value, to creat a model of your own perfect shot, and not so perfect. Would audible cues tuned to your analyzed shooting data be a good thing to have implemented, or just a distraction. The element of stopping a shot has been my biggest hurdle to surpass...

Make replay playable in slow motion, and with a pause option. The use of different colors during a shot used by RIKA is very useful for visualization of the different phases of a shot. Folders for saving multiple users, as mentioned, will make it appealing to clubs. How would you attach the laser to...

It is all relative

I don't know if numbers are available from NRA, but it is easy to understand that in competition shooting there is a distribution curve of skill level that can be identified by results in competition and corresponding class. If you compare the results of your trainees, to these distribution results ...

It does move, but mine also got striped before it budged.
You need the exact size screw driver.
