Lucky you, you have truly got an extraordinary well behaving Walther SSP specimen. Mine is an extraordinary well behaving one as well. I suspect most are, it is only the ones that do not behave that you hear about. From experience at my club most of the feed problems of the SSP are caused by the hei...

How do you aim with it? Do you align the rear sight to the whole target? I area aim and put the black above the middle of the front sight just like I do with every other pistol. I have never found any need to match the sight width to the black of the target. Just curious, how do you aim at a target ...

jliston48 Might be made by CCI, but not the same. Fits into my free pistol with less effort. Projectile slightly different. Attached picture of groups shot by my Pardini SP. CCI, Hornady, Eley Match Pistol and SK Pistol. Some minor issues with lead smeared down the sides of some of the cases. Crimpe...

"I think the older SSP guns are more choosy about ammo." Not my experience, my older SSP shoots anything. It has not had a miss feed in its entire life. Two or three eject failures and half a dozen rims struck without the shot firing. My SSP is six to seven years old. SK Pistol match has b...

northpaw What do you mean the barrel to bolt clearance (" headspace") is at a minimum. As you adjust the barrel in further, it contacts the o-ring in the bolt face and compresses it. The more you compress the o-ring the greater the pressure required to shut the bolt, within reason. I assum...

Northpaw Try removing o-ring number 7 and see if the symptoms change. With my LP10, at one stage the bolt was sticking to the o-ring as it slid over it. It was impossible to set the correct barrel position while the bolt was sticking on the o-ring. Even with the barrel removed it took too much press...

ptf18 As a pistol shooter I realise that the pistol never stops moving. The best I can do is squeeze the trigger progressively when the pistol is in the correct area, not spot. The ideal result for me is to have the before and after scatt trace to be on top of each other. Pictures attached 3rd and 4...

Straight lines are usually not good at the time of release. Attached example of a poor shot release. X-ring to 7 ring and back to the ten ring in no time at all. First picture better trigger release but still trace changed direction at point of release. Both R/F pistol, 3 seconds to fire the shot.

"I think you need to have some reference to aim to." I am a ISSF pistol shooter, when I use a precision 25 metre target the black blob is just part of the overall sight picture. I suppose the black area is being referenced to by me even if it is above or behind the sights. But when I use a...

The scatt uses the noise or vibration from the firing mechanism being released to register the shot. One the Steyr LP10e it is a small solenoid. To register the solenoid it needs to be set down around 1.5 to 2. If set higher it does not register reliably. Using the mechanical Steyr the dry fire mech...

If you shoot ten sighting shots, yellow corner in the top right corner of the target, and no match shots you cannot save the group.
You need to start firing match shots before you can save the result.
This is the only thing I can think of that would stop you saving the ten shot group.

Some of the matches on the scatt automatically go the calibration screen at the start of the match and some you have to use the f2 button to bring up the calibration screen. If you do not calibrate the sensor, the point of impact can be a long way from the centre of the target. Also this screen sets...

ptf18 I occasionally get a delay between the click and the bang on the scatt, I have always assumed the computer was a bit busy at the time of shot release. The most recent posts questions, suggest you may not be familiar with the adjustment of some of the basic settings of the scatt and you may not...

Are you saying the trigger moves to the rear, and has the normal weight of the first stage and travel. Plus when you get to where the second stage should be you do not feel the second stage before it discharges. In this case screw E needs a small clockwise adjustment. Your sear engagement may have m...

Poor choice of words, "who cares". Maybe I should have said. For me it is only one aspect of a pistol. The question that was asked which pistol has the best trigger Morini electronic or Pardini K12. Not many people gave an answer to the original question, and neither did I. Just concerned ...

Who cares, it is more important you fit the pistol and can position the trigger where you need it to be. If the Morini does not fit well, it does not matter if the trigger is the better one. If you hate the weight distribution of either pistol it will not matter if it has the best trigger on the pla...

Looking at the manual, if the first stage travel screw, D has been wound in too far the trigger will not reset when the rifle is cocked. Adjusting screw E left of point will do nothing. Adjusting first stage travel screw anti clockwise will allow the trigger to reset. And the let off point can be ad...

The Scatt manual specifies even lighting at at least 1000 lux. The Ikea lamp at 88 lumens, if it had a beam angle of 60 degrees, it would need to be .3 m from the target. At a beam angle of 45 degrees .4 metres. A 5000 lumen 50 watt flood light at a 140 degree beam angle needs to be 1.1 metres from ...

Depends what question you are asking. Do I want to go to a national championships and get the score I actually shot and deserve, or do I want to leave it a bit up to chance? I shot at the Aus National in June and got into the finals because of my x-ring count. I tested my JSB pellets in my LP10. I d...

If the MG2 uses the same system as the MG4 the pin will be staked on the top face of the slide and not on the bottom. The correct direction to remove the pin is down, and inserted from the bottom. My firing pin was removed multiple times and the pin did not take much force to remove or install and d...
