I sent an email to the Pardini factory, and to my surprise I have got an answer. Thumbs up Pardini!
It was produced in 1995! This was offered to me as a brand new at full price.
So, no deal. At what serial number did they start with the latest version?

Pardini SP1 New

Is a Pardini with serial number BE0249 manufactured 2013 or is the pistol "old" alredy? This has been offered to me but it this pistol might have been on the shelf for years... It is a low number, I think.
It is a elektronik version.
Can anyone give a hint here?

The adaptor is a bit short even for a 232 bar.
I used a fiber washer to narrow the gap.

I had a chat with Skanåker last week. He intend to quit shooting some 7-8 years from now. No thinking of retire yet!
I remember asking once if he had done a100 with free pistol in competition and he sad that he had done that only once. In Seul, South Korea of all places.

I was given an advice once that has stayed in my mind;
"It is not about the 3 seconds it is about what you are doing during the 7 seconds that determines the outcome." (We are talking centre fire here)

And time to travel to the range? Put up targets? Patching targets? Talk to mates? Going home again?
I think dry fire is very useful and will do a lot more than before. Now when winter starts it is easy to make it 100 to 1. :-)

OP is here... Thank you all for responding. I spent some time to ponder on the subject :-) To "Russ" I do not think that it is a question of spending money on a magic course. I already shoot 560+. You do not need to be a dazzling pedagogue to make anyone go from 500 to 540. There are a lot...

I have seen that part. The question is; can I count air pistol training and SCATT training as a sort of dry fire? I use a sub 6 hold, a sort of aiming at a white area that can be like a white wall if I relax a lot :-) I hope that it is about HOW I shoot and not if small pellet leaves the gun as long...

"Dry fire"

I read somewhere that one should do 100 dry fires to 1 on the range. It may be going a bit too far but I do agree with the idea to some extent. Does shooting with an air gun be considered as "dry fire"? There is no recoil involved! And using a SCATT, will it not be the same as dry fire? Or...

You can think the other way around. No matter how ISSF change the rules the olympic style shooting will not gain any more followers because you have a lot of other diciplins to choose from.
My example was from 600 000 inhabitants, small town in US?

One of the previous posters opined that 98% of U.S. shooters don't care about the Olympics. I'd say the number is more like 99.999%. During the run-up to the Olympics and during the events, I tried making a number of posts to other forums where plenty of gun owners gather and, frankly, couldn't con...

Do we need "the actual projectile"??? The "bang" I can do without and what is then left if a laser can do the math? If you ask the man on the street if weapons should be allowed in private hands you will find that a waste majority wotes no. This is the reality political of any pa...

Now when you are a proud owner of a FP10 it might be a good idea to see if you can remove the muzzle break assembly. It should have been greased with copper paste before mounting in order to facilitate future removing and cleaning. Use a tube and press the insert forward after the screw under the fr...

Use the screw on top to back of the second stage then make the first stage go off at 700 - 800 grams. Next step is to use the screw on top and as soon as it interfer and make the trigger go off at 1060 grams you are done. The screw at the back for the second stage is only used for "fine tuning&...

Yes, this is a free pistol I like. I have had two but sold them both times. There is a limit of how many guns you can have here in Sweden. (10) Nice gun, one of few Hammerli that I liked. I have a MG5 now and it has a better trigger. Some samples of FP10 have had trigger problems. The rods on a FP10...

I will not argue about the subject anymore. I have had a Hammerli 152 and two Hammerli FP10, two Morini 84E one FP60, a TOZ35 and today a MG5 and a MU55-1. They may have changed the FP60, the one I had was the early version. IF I can get access to the nut I will take measurement and photo. If I am c...
