Re: 10m Pistol League Interest

What I did to generate interest was to buy several air pistols, lots of pellets, and let people use them for free. Also there are lots of older folks that used to shoot air pistols that still have them. I spent time asking them to come out and shoot to get others interested, I also bugged local TV, ...

Re: Shops in USA

It has been said before, but everything breaks or needs repair/tuneup at some point and will need parts. If everyone buys outside of the country they live in there will be no one around when you have a question or do need help.
And no, I do not own a business, but I do have common sense.

Re: 10m Pistol League Interest

I hold air pistol matches, use NetCompetitor and CMP Aces.

What I have been doing is shooting air pistol at my club. I bring extra air pistols and always offer them to others. Slow process but now we have a few people shooting air pistol...convert one at a time.

One of the best prices I have seen!
This is what I use. Great price. It fits inside a bullseye pistol box.

Also, do not forget about Winter Air Gun. You might be shooting next to an Olympic athlete!

Big Thank You To Brent McPherson And Olympic Shooting Center

I had emailed Brent about advice for getting younger kids involved in 10 meter air pistol. I stopped by the Olympic Shooting Center Tuesday and Brent spent hours giving me advice and letting me talk with our Olympic/Paralympic air rifle and air pistol shooters. They are a great group, and I see at l...

Re: New Morini Air Pistol - CM200 EI

I have one as well. Chris is right. Functions much better as a Christmas tree light. And I have moved from a Steyr Evo 10e to the Morini CM200ei because I shoot better with the Morini.

Re: New Morini Air Pistol - CM200 EI

I have an empty cylinder that I use to dry fire my Cm200ei. As stated above, the included "training cable" is useless. I may add it to my Christmas tree lights:-)

Re: New Morini Air Pistol - CM200 EI

I wonder if it is because Morini has not been able to build them very fast? I had mine on order for several months. If you cannot get one to try it is hard to talk about it....just my thought.

Re: New Morini Air Pistol - CM200 EI

CM200ei report after 1,000 pellets. I was shooting my Steyr Evo 10e so comparison will be between them. Both pistols have Rink grips. Fit and finish goes to Steyr. Steyr, in automotive terms, is put together like a Mercedes. Everything is solid and it feels solid. I know others have mentioned the pl...

Re: For those in or around Belgium interested in 10m air pis

Yes. We ran three air pistol matches this year. Cannot seem to generate interest in other areas around the State. We have people coming from 200 miles away.

Re: For those in or around Belgium interested in 10m air pis

Looking at your calendar, I am jealous with all the matches you can pick from. Someday I would like be able to have that many matches to choose from in Wisconsin and Minnesota.

Re: New Morini Air Pistol - CM200 EI

Just received my CM200ei and it sure is lighter compared to my Evo10. Only shot 60 pellets so I cannot give full report. The good news is shooters at our next Bloomer Air can now try a Pardini K12 or a Morini CM200ei

Re: Rink or Nill grips

The fit. Almost every shooter grinds or adds putty to get a grip that fits them perfect. Some find a particular brand of grip that fits them best and they put that grip on various pistols they shoot. Totally an individual preference.
