I cannot for the life of me think why anyone would want cantable sights on a pistol,or why a manufacturer would think it was needed

Gamo Compact - Responsible for putting too many young people off of pistol shooting. David, can you tell me why young people are put off by using the Gamo Compact? I have one that has over 10.000 shots, it's a love and hate relationship. It can be a good pistol once the trigger is tweaked and lubed...

Isakov is using that pistol for one of two reasons,he likes it,or he gets sponsorship for using it,and his will be selected from the best of the best in the factory,he didn't get it off the shelf

They certainly do Neale. Email Ronny, from memory it's info@ (shown on the web site). He speaks very good English.

Thanks very much David,I'll get in contact with him

I am using one of these triggers, with an added small notch to assist in weighing the trigger, from Ronny Nilsson at Interprodukter in Sweden . It was very strange. I fitted it and from the first shot it felt so natural that I forgot about it. 162EI Trigger.jpg David,do you know if they make a left...

There are definitely 2 schools of thought on this,personally for Air,I don't think I've ever cleaned my LP50 barrel,and might have fired 1 or 2 cleaning felts through my Morini in the past 3 years. For .22rf,I usually pull a boresnake though it after shooting just to get rid of the crud from the las...

As Europe is a single market economy there will be no problem at all

If your problem is keeping sharp focus on the foresight,then regular dry fire training will be far more beneficial than drawing a line on it

I wonder what Pilkguns opinion of the Morini short is,as the sight base is the same as the long version,I expect they refuse to sell them at all!

I believe HPS in the UK make one,you buy one stock and different insert block to fit your different actions

It's a magnifying lens,either 0.3 or 0.5 magnification,it fits on the front of your foresight,and basically makes your target look bigger

Thanks for the reply, Tufty. I'm based in North London.

I've made an appointment to visit Iqbal Uhbi, so I'll see how I get on with that!

Iqbal's a top bloke,I'm sure he'll sort your grip out for you

I would be tempted to start by trying a short cylinder with your long barrel,I know a couple of people who shoot with that set up with great success. Can't really understand Pilkguns thinking .....if they refused to sell me a pistol because I couldn't shoot 550 with it I would tell them where to sti...

Whereabouts are you based in the UK?

Could they have made the sight line any shorter????

Or you can fire a pellet loaded the wrong way round,some believe that has a cleaning effect

Dry firing with a cylinder is exactly the same as dry firing without one,turning the switch on only activates the trigger

Must watch this final...I've never seen a pistol shoot itself

Would have loved to go to this,but it clashes with the Scottish Open,which I had already booked,and the North Wales Open

Having done some grip work on my Morini,the only other thing I'd like to try is extending the back of the palm shelf as it's now about 1cm short of my wrist joint....how close can I go and stay legal under ISSF Rules?
