OK, I get it - "No Stinkin' Thinkin'. " And I am pretty good at not thinking - just ask my ex. But if someone is trying to learn to drive and alternates sessions between a standard shift and an automatic, he may have one heck of a time getting proficient with either. And avoiding trees. I...

Most of the IPSC shooters use grease to lubricate the slide and frame rails of their pistols. Their guns see a lot of use - several hundred rounds of max load .45 or 9mm at a match is not unusual. I have also used grease on my .45 Bullseye pistol and can say that it works well. I don't think it woul...

So what are the long-term Izzy shooters out there using? Someone speak up! My IZH is five years old and the seals are in good working order. I have used Pellgun oil and I have occasionally used Beeman Ultralube. I believe the Beeman is a silicone oil. The key to lubing the IZH is to use minimal amo...

Thank you for putting the PDF document on the net. Digging a little deeper in my archives I found another document, that I'm sure comes from the Internet as well. I'm sorry not to be able to link to the owner. If someone recognizes it, please publish the rightful source. This document however descr...

Well, thank goodness that's finally been settled. Now we can move on to more important matters like whether a palm support is touching the wrist :-))

Forgot the name of the place you mentioned to get discounted prescription glasses, can you post it again?
Thanks.

I will try anything that keeps me focused, and helps me achieve my goals. Plan to be able to enter one of each every week, from results of training. I am using the Canadian site you mentioned as my guide, on the one year plan I am developing. Paulo, one comment - as you develop your plan, maintain ...

This has gotten pretty interesting. I clean the chamber, rails and magazine well but I can understand why barrels should be left as is or at the most, a patch. What about protection for corrosion? I remember reading long ago that modern rimfire ammo leaves a residue which resists corrosion(this cam...

Anyone have any recommendations for a shop to service one? I know, "do it yourself" but I've got 10 thumbs and would rather have an expert do it. I believe if you look up MAC 1 air guns you will find what you seek . He is in Calif and does up-grades to the IZH......but as the last post st...

I'm with Dr Jim - almost. I clean my pistols just before they stop functioning. With experience you will know whether this is 500 rounds or 1000 rounds. Seriously, all you need for a 22 is Weed Wacker cord, patches, a nylon brush to clean the breech face and extractor, and a 25 cal brush bent to 90 ...

Just to add my 2 pennies - I have used both shooting glasses (Varga, MEC) and conventional glasses with a prescription for shooting. I have found little difference, except for the much higher cost of the shooting glasses. In addition to the cost of good quality shooting frames, the cost of a good 37...

Thanks David. I stop my raise in the white, perhaps several inches over the bull. The change in vertical alignment between this point and my aiming area is minimal, at least to my eye :-)

Starting from the bench. At the start of the lift the top of the front sight will be lower than the top of the rear sight. I lift above the black, when the top of the front sight is above the top of the rear sight, before dropping down to my aiming area when the tops of the front and rear sights ar...

Harvard has an active shooting club again - see viewtopic.php?p=141844&highlight=#141844

Long Island is one of the few places in the U.S. where the high schools have shooting programs (at least that was what I was told a few years ago).
But don't be afraid, I'm sure they are only shooting .22 or air rifle.

Mine wouldn't feed anything either until I broke an extractor and after someone replaced it. I suspect this is an issue with my Smith 41. I bought used so don't have history on the machine. It is very sensitive, sometimes doesn't eject or extract properly. Do you know what type of ejector he used t...

Judith, I agree with David's comments. If you have a local company that carries grips for your P44, I suggest you go there and try different sizes until you find one that fits best. Here in the U.S. obtaining a grip that fits properly is not easy - we have few custom fitters. After gaining some expe...

I thought the CM84E required your finger to be on the trigger before the circuit could be closed for the trigger to release. Maybe there is a fault with your trigger circuit. I think it only requires the finger to be near the blade, not specifically on it - isn't it an opto electronic sensor, in wh...
