Hi guys!
I have experienced the same problems. I solved it by delubricate each single case. It´s hard work - done in cold winter evenings ;-) But it´s worth the effort.

I fully agree, too. I got used to fumble in the pellet within a few days of shooting. I´ve also had a Morini which is quite different and, I confess also easier to load. But I doubled the loading very often, mostly during a competition. And this incident never ever happened to me when using the Stey...

I´ve shot the FPM. And to be honest I couldn`t stand it. The trigger was something strange for me. I never shot a good result with the Pardini. And finally I switched to Morini CM84E. And that´s THE FP for me. But I do like Pardinis, too. In the discipline "sport pistol" I shoot a Pardini ...

A couple of months ago I´ve (twice) placed a question (via email) related to the "battery problem" to Morini. And that´s the only negative experience I´ve made with Morini: Up to now I didn`t get any answer from them. It seems to me that they are absolutely not willing or able to answer. ...

Claim to be a 590+ shooter and they will fall over each other to talk to you, and send some flowers together with the answer to your question. As John Doe, you're nobody. They are not even interested in your money - else they would try to sell some of their new stuff. One of my (few) problems with ...

And besides I hope that for the CM84E (my FP) Morini will change the kind of batteries, too. Because until now you have to buy the very rare and expensive 15V batteries for the 84E. Max I seem to remember that they need the extra "oomph" from the 15V battery to run the "light beam&qu...

Yeah, but some people ARE actually using the EI / EA as a designator - when Thomas Rink brought out his first custom grips for the 162, the "EI" were for the 15V battery and the "EA" for the 2 x 1.5V batteries e-units. So check first and buy cautiously ;-) And besides I hope tha...

I thought:- It doesn't matter, as I said earlier, "same gun, different name, different language". Yep, that´s true. Different languages often cause problems due to misunderstanding or misinterpretation ;-) EA is the German interpretation (translation) of EI. Strange but true. But anyway i...

To put this clear: EA and EI are the SAME pistols. When the EI (stands for Elettronica Innesco - electronic trigger) was introduced in Germany in the early 1990s the German importer of the guns suggested to Morini to find a different designation for the gun due to the fact that in the German languag...

I fire some cleaning pellets through the barrel after each shooting. And from time to time I "rally" clean the barrel with the same cleaning stuff I use for cleaning my .22 pistols. But when I am too lazy for cleaning the difference on the target is not noticeable. So for me cleaning of th...

I own the pistol for a few weeks and have experienced the same problems with each ammo I use. So I think the reason is the single ejector which gets filthy quite quickly. I cleaned the ejector during the match but that´s disturbing my concentration. So I pull out each single case and it became part ...

Re: Checking the hits

I asked the range-officer whether this doing is approved or not. He said "no" but another one said that the shooter can do whatever he wants (concerning the in-and-out procedure). This is strange! I am a range-officer during 50m FP-matches. If i say NO it is NO, even if a shooter is stand...

Well, every 5 shots would be ok (at local competitions we change the targets every 10 shots) - but he brought the target back every shot. Is that according to the rules?

Checking the hits

Hi! Last week I´ve made the following experience: I shot a competition 50m pistol. The targets were mounted on (sorry I don´t know the english word) wires to bring them in and out. This was done electronically. Now my question: The shooter next to me brought in the target after each shot. He didn´t ...

Hi Nev!
Thanks for the link. I´ve had it already to work with the figures. What I meant was kind of a "sketched" procedure of the further dismounting of the gun. But I think the description is that clear so that even I should be able to get it right ;-)
Best regards
