Re: Weight for Second Stage
I did this since I wanted to bring my AP closer to the FP which has very light second (and first) stages. Appreciate any comments. Thanks! I have never tried a 480/20 AP trigger, but it seems to me that it would be very different from a 20 gm single stage FP trigger. So I see no benefit to having a...

Actually Fred, we'd still be done for carelessness even then. We're meant to lock our firearms in the boot of the car (er, the trunk for you guys???) We're fortunate here because when/where we have stupid gun laws, they are usually on a state or local level rather than national. There are some stat...

Leave it in full view in the back of a car and you're in violation of that and the idea is you're breaching your duty of care to the public. Sparks, don't be jumping to conclusions.

A friend and I each made a falling plate set-up when they came out with the provisional rules back in 2000 (I think). Cost us some time and less than $100.00. It's reset with a string, and we use a TargetTimer buzzer. The range officer uses his judgment as far as late shots go. Works quite well. We...

Something to think about: when you make the iris smaller it will make the bull and sights sharper. Not necessarily a good thing. It will also change the apparent size of the bull, changing your vertical zero when using a sub six hold if you change the iris hole.It doesn't matter if using a center h...

Re: Equipment
[quote Am I missing something, other then getting a multi shot air pistol, what are the equipment challenges? If I read the rules you can probably run the whole match with a stop watch if you don't have turning targets or lights. "five (5) Falling Targets" Sounds like equipment to me. At ...

I'll make the agonizing decision of which gun to keep, then, being the engineer, will tinker with finding the pellet which shoots best. Somewhere in there I need to practice. Shooting freehand vs bench rested vs vice-held really bears this out Having established that all three pistols are mechanica...

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. I've been doing some research about the pistols you guys mentioned and am not sure about which one to get. They both cost a fair amount.

Pyramid Air lists the Aeron ACZ101 as discontinued. Is this a new model you are referring to?

Re: When is recoil felt?
There is a write up at; http://www.shootingwiki.org/index.php?title=Understanding_Recoil Interesting writeup. I was not aware that there is a .357mag autoloader on the market. Who makes the pistol shown in the illustration? The 'good news' is that your body cannot react to the recoil by the time th...

I shot a 46 for nearly 8 years, probably 20,000 pellets and never wore out a bolt seal. When done shooting, close the action but don't latch it - breechblock lightly resting on frame. The seals aren't compressed and should last nearly forever. The man I sold it to in 2001 still has it, stores it th...

Pyramid Air sells just the bolt seals for $5.99/pr, but I expect shipping might be as much. http://www.pyramydair.com/cgi-bin/accessory.pl?accessory_id=2090 I would check with Pilkguns for just the bolt seals; if they have them I'm sure they would just put them in an envelope for a minimal shipping ...
