Hello Everyone, I wanted to post this so it is here for reference. Our firearm pistols will typically have some form of a break in when they are new. Often it is anywhere between 200-400 rounds prior to a normalization of operation. There is a shortcut we have found to accelerate this process, in mo...

Hello Everyone, It was suggested to us by one of our clients to post a synopsis on the reasoning behind Failure to Eject, Failure to Extract, and Stove Piping. I hope that my explanation helps all of you to better understand our Pistols. The Pardini SP and HP will tend to encounter these types of ma...

Actually based on the measurements we have taken, having a scope mounted at the front brings some of the balance from the muzzle (becasue of the weights) back to around the area of the trigger.

If you remove the weights all together, then the balance will be a little further back.

Correct, for the most part if the round has not fired it will have some trouble being removed from the chamber. I would see if the hammer had dropped when putting the round into battery. For the most part, if it is not firing the round there are other problems preventing this from happening.. As sta...

Position Grip Sight Alignment & Sight Picture Trigger Control Shot Sequence/Follow Through/Recovery In all schools around the world these are the most important aspects of shooting. Each element can be worked separately and when all of them work together you execute an ideal shot. Focus is impor...

Does the slide go back all the way without a round in it? There are sometimes issues where the pins that hold the extractor/firing pin/back shock absorber in place have moved out of position and stick up preventing the bolt from going back all the way. If the ejector is a problem, it will be visibly...

Hey! Im in Tampa and we do not have any large ranges here where we can set up 25 m targets so what we do is one of the following: -10M RF airpistol targets from Kruger set at 10M from the firing line. We have two different target setups for this distance: One with lights and one without the light se...

What they have told me at the Olympic Training Center when I was there for a camp is that the ideal way to lose weight while maintaining muscle growth and function is to follow the following rule: During a 7 day period you will have 5 regular diet days, and 2 refeeding days. During the regular diet ...

Definitely have a grip for the leftie so you can shoot it as you normally would.

Have you tried putting your thumb on top of the safety too? Also, I recommend letting your hand rest between series. It is impractical to hold the pistol squeezed for so long. If you have a consistent grip, taking on and off of the gun should not be a problem at all. Yes, my thumb is on top of the ...

The Pardini GT 45 has taken me to Master and allowed me to win several Regional Championships. I've come close to cleaning slowfire with it (98) and have more short line cleans than I care to keep up with, so the gun is bullseye accurate. I use the custom short trigger and the factory panel grips w...

Do some holding drills, except when you are doing them focus on the front sight and make yourself hold the front sight steady. I know it sounds a bit strange but you can train yourself to extend this period of steadiness.

I test pellets everytime I am in competition in Germany so about 1-2 times per year. Now, I know I am an extreme since I am on the pistol team, but I find that the more you start testing pellets the more you give yourself an "out" for the problems. I personally only test to find a match l...

Kifsif, It does in fact help. Though training it to the full extent as you are mentioning will be a waste of time. For my training, for every 5 lifts I do, I do one with the left hand. There is definitely a benefit in terms of coordination. Beyond that I would not recommend going too much in to it. ...

I cant comment on this Though what I can say is that making a 1911 is not something we would do..The design of a 1911 removes alot of the advantages you see in the GT series...though as a shooter I do like the idea of the single stack... I dont have large hands in the first place so what I did for m...

We make custom Grips at Pardini..we make it not for comfort though, our main goal is to align the gun for you so you can shoot even with closed eyes (NOT RECOMMENDED only DRY FIRE) xD Then if you want a piece made from wood it can be done as well. What exactly are you looking for from the grip? If y...

Yes I know, pellet testing for pistol is a waste of time... But since I've given in and done it, here's my results for you to comment. These are all ten shots groups, from my Steyr LP10 clamped in a vice. First to establish a base line, I shot the RWS R10 Pistol, 7gr 4.49 RWS R10.JPG Needless to sa...

The difference is I'm seeing the movement before the shot break. Granted, I should be cancelling the shot at that point, but I'm not perfect in that regard. For trigger break, I'm very happy at this point, it's one of the stronger parts of my game right now. But on target I'll get a before-break mov...

I'd like to shoot some bigger matches Define "bigger matches". For the matches supervised by the ISSF, World Cups, Continental Games/Championships, World Championships and Olympic Games, Entries (up to maximum team sizes) are accepted from Governing Bodies who are members of the ISSF. The...

Realistically speaking Free Pistol is gone. No matter what argument is made, it is the least popular event to the public. If we do not maintain the publics interest, since shooting does not get much air time, then it will eventually fail to be in the Olympics. I understand personally where everyone ...
