i fire a few cleaning pellets through it after every session. since the air pistol produces no powder fouling, you only need to worry about a small amount of lead fouling. once in a great while ( i say about every 4 tins) i will take a patch and soak it in hoppes and run ith through. i never use a b...

ajustable iris question
I just got a Gehmann clip on iris thingy. I was wondering what the proper setting for the iris size would be? Is it a matter of personal preference or should I be setting to for a specific sighting picture against the target?

dry fire practice helps so much. i do it as often as possible. it is really amazing to see what your front sight is doing when you pull back on the trigger. with practice, you can get it to the point of near zero movment. one thing i like to do when shooting is dry firing the empty chamber after 5 r...

The fact that not all guns have loads of adjustments suggests that while they are nice gimmicks they are o...

......... but i cannot seem to find a repalcement that would enhance a walther gsp (or anyher target pistol) I know that some people will disagree but if changing away from the standard sights was really an enhancement for ISSF shooting then everyone would be selling replacements. probably so. but ...

Walther LP300 balance weights
I just picked up a used Watlther LP300 (Thanks Frank! =) ) and I have a question on the balance weights attached to the trigger guard. The question is, what do I do with them? They cant weigh more than a few grams each and sliding them around does not seem to make any difference in how the pistol fe...
