Here's my "2 cents" on this subject. The mental aspect of shooting is one of the most important, and should not be forgotten. I recommend reading the book "With Winning in Mind" by Lanny Bassham. One must be confident on the line. One must truly believe that he can shoot a perfec...

First of all I mentioned I am a newbie. The K10 I purchased was used and came with a "L" size grip. Today I went to my usual gunsmith ( The official Pardini Portuguese distribuitor) and tried a "M" size grip. Well let's just say that my fornt sight drop problem seemed to go away....

After trying to figure out my Natural Point of Aim, it seems to produce a low front sight. As a result I'm forcing my wrist to elevate the front sight. Since I've already modifiyed my grip I don't have that much wood on the back, between the thumb and the index finger (actually it has ruptured havin...

It generally tends to drop downwards during the hold. I have to do some effort to lock the wrist and most of the times to rise the front sight through movement of the wrist, or hips. While aiming, most of the time I have to fight this tendency to drop the front sight, introducing parasitic movements...

Pistol grips and balance

Hi, I'm a novice in air pistol having started with a Pardini K10 in july 2012. I was able, with some hints from other shooters, to reach 540 occasionally, being my average of 524. I've had some ups and downs, and I belive that mostly my problems lie in lack of confidance and concentration. Obviously...

One final thing... When you test pellets in larger numbers be aware that the pistol may not remain clamped in the exact same position. When you load the pistol be EXTREMELY gentle, otherwise your groups will start to deviate in height. rmca, It does help to have a stable stucture to suport the vice...

:) Actually I didn't fiddle with it. The trigger weight is good for now. I'm not experienced enough to change it yet. I'm still used to the 500g of the Air pistol, so the trigger seems light enough. Should have 200g or less... But I did found out that buying a used gun has its challenges. I was havi...

I've found the manual under the foam in the pistol case.
It is in fact diferent from the one avaliable from the Pardini website.
I has a diferent trigger assembly, with corresponding pictures.

If Pilkguns wants to put it in the 10P Files please notify me.

Thank You.

It seems to be a K10 with a silver air cylinder.

I have a K10 with a blue cylinder, but there were silver and black cylinders avaliable.
