I am with you, but to be in good shape is one thing and to hold a gun with muscle building strength is another, that is my point.
To be as fit as possible is what is really needed.

I'm also still learning the techniques involve behind air rifle shooting, but I can swear that you don't need any strength to practive this sport.
To my understanding the less strength involved the better.
To be calmed and relaxed is a lot better.

Having said that I find that the color combinations of some coats make them good candidates for clown clothing. I'm agree with you 100%. The Gehmann set have some very dark and serious colors no "bling bling look at me", I don't think you can change the colors on this model, but I'm not s...

I really don't understand your question, but I own the Gehman 404 set (trouser and coat), if it's that what you are talking about it is white/blue/black.

Hope that helps.

I have a FWB 700 UNIVERSAL, it's also my first match grade rifle, and I am very happy with it. Like some said before you can't shoot better than those rifles, so it just comes to personal preference. I chose these model because i don't like the "space age" look of the aluminum stocks. You ...

and a coach? Yeah, I finally found a coach.......!!!. BTW for all of those who don't have access to a coach, don't quit the sport, you'll waist more time learning........but you'll learn. Some posts on this forum is like no coach.......quit the shooting......huh!!! Be careful using Ski/scating boot...

Finally I just received my set of Gehmann trouser and coat, this is my first set so I can't make comparisons, it looks of very high quality. Haven't shoot with it yet, but I hope it will help me on some way. I think I got all the equipment to learn AR shooting the right way, rifle, glove, stand, coa...

Thanks for all the great comments/info. Pat McCoy: they are not sighters they are for settling, what I call warming up. Secondarily is to settle your postition, but this can be better accomplshed by dry firing during the prep period (and if needed during the early minutes of the match). Dry firing i...

How many shots is normal for "warming up"? I'm still learning and right now my groups are all inside the 7 ring (air rifle target)....yes I know not a big hold but I'm still learning. Anyway when I'm warming up I have to make like 30-40 shots to really begin to reduce my groups (yes inside...

Now it will be more accurate.

Thanks and same to you.
Wishing all this forum members the best wishes.

I think that is a good idea, since not everybody interested on this sport have access to a coach or reputable shooters to ask questions and/or advice.

Something like "STICKY: Beginners read here first", as on some other forum I have read.

Welcome and enjoy.

From a happy owner of a FWB 700 UNIVERSAL I will say go for it, but you really can't go wrong with either.
I think the difference on this level of guns is some sort of "personal preference".

My 2 cents.

I thinkn that you can't go wrong with any of the big names.

If you like it, go for it, and enjoy it.

I shoot more comfortable with contacts.
Some lubricating eye drops will do the job.
BTW, in Ways of the Rifle they recommend the use of contacts, but it's all personal preference.

My 2 cents.

I'll choose the Feinwerkbau, that coming from a FWB 700 UNIVERSAL owner.
There is something on the "star wars look" aluminum stocks that I don't like.
You can't go wrong with any of your choices.

when: years ago around 1982, started plinking around with a Daisy 840 bb rifle where: first on the backyard, then I move up to large field camp with other kids and had a great time with our "marksman" skills why: loved the challenge of hitting to what I aim at, now aiming at that pinpoint ...
