Cylinder date 2014-23. That is the original grip.

For sale Pardini Kid air pistol with unmodified stock ambidextrous adjustable grip. I bought it new in 2014 and it has been lightly used. Everything is in good order. This is a good, lightweight pistol that is adjustable up to adult hand sizes. Included are case, filling, and emptying adaptors along...

I had Roddy Toyota drill and tap my Hammerli for a .22 tip-off rail. Worked great for an Ultradot, fixed to the barrel it was very consistent. Cost was lower much than the Larry’s mount as well.

At one point I bought six tungsten rods on eBay, I think 3/8” - 1.5”. They were slightly too large diameter so @sakurama turned them down for me on his lathe. Machining tungsten is no picnic and the surface didn’t come out great (feed & speed wasn’t right I guess.) Anyway it mostly made the barr...

The OP ended up with a Ruger and shot his first match last weekend.

Yep, anyone with any 3D printer can use that file.

If you can’t find a 3D printer between friends, your library, etc there are also inexpensive online services like Shapeways. You just upload your file, specify what you’d like it made of and get it mailed. Many on target talk have printers too, I’m sure if you posted asking someone would help you ou...

I recently put a Rink grip on an LP10- it did come with the mounting bolt.

I’ve used various Ultradots over the years and still have a 1” on a backup gun.I had an Ultradot die during a match on me - not the battery, something fell apart inside. It was weird, just mounted on a .22 so it must’ve been a bad unit. Ultradot West fixed it but it was a bummer anyway. I’ll say the...

I 3D printed a similar bracket for my Scatt Mx-02 but found that it wouldn’t reliably pick up the shot when dry-firing. Is that working for you?

I ended up just using the stock aluminum bracket with a long strap or the barrel insert mount.

I just bought SPBE. They told me not to leave the chamber dry fire plug in the pistol or it will shorten the spring. If You take it out you will either have to leave it cocked or snap the trigger. Will it hurt it to snap the trigger after dry fire practice. I’ve kept mine with the dry fire plug in ...

There is a Willamette Valley Pistol League that has winter matches generally from November to April. Corvallis has a team (I’m captain of the Portland team.) Portland Rifle & Pistol Club has indoor 50’ .22 2700 matches During the winter, generally once a month from October or so to April. PRPC a...

We have an active team of 12-ish shooters, probably average age 35 at my club in Portland. Winters we have a competition league of 8 clubs spread over 100 miles up & down the Willamette valley with similar membership.

I had surgery for instability of my left shoulder two months ago. I had torn labrum and a bony Bankart lesion (fracture of scapula.) When moving my shoulder in certain ways it would dislocate and I had pain when extending the arm as if to shoot (though I shoot with my arm pretty flat to my shoulders...

At my club we solved that problem by ditching the American targets & buying Kruger. Backers didn't help much and the Krugers are excellent quality & weren't more expensive.

As I understand it the whole point is that you can run 0, 2, 4, or 6 weights. Just pull some out.

Here's the match bulletin.

Sabrina isn’t the contact for that match- Chris Alto is running the air, free, and standard pistol matches. I’ll mention this tread to him so he can reply.

Here’s a sketch looking at the bottom of the slide & a section through the slide & plug. Plug is orange. The back of the recess in the slide is milled differently on old vs. new model 41’s, just make it match yours. The step in the bottom of the plug is what cocks the hammer, I don’t recall ...

When I had a model 41 I got sick of messing with snap caps & drywall anchors. Looking online I found ideas for several other solutions, the best was a block that fits in the recess in the bottom of the slide. I don’t have one anymore, but I made several when I figured it out & handed them ou...
