I've just heard that, unsurprisingly in light of the German rules, they are checking cylinders.David Levene wrote:Yes it is this week, but as it is not an ISSF supervised meeting and being held under the auspices of the DSB I don't think we will learn much about what the ISSF intention was.RobStubbs wrote:Is Dortmund this coming week ?

I can't answer that Fred but I would doubt it. Most people shooting at that match will have heard of the failures at Munich in January.Fred Mannis wrote:It would be interesting to find out if any cylinders failed inspection.
To my knowledge, this is not true. DSB is honoring Morini's 20 year certification.David Levene wrote:[The fact that he has a Morini, who are still sticking by their 20 years, would not have exempted him from the German rules.

It doesn't (now that Scott has clarified the DSB position in Germany).jak10x1 wrote:Mine also have 20 year max, but how does the 10 year life relate to them?
