Re: Krale

I agree, I have also purchased several air pistols from Krale, shipped to the United States, which were shipped quickly, I highly recommend Krale assuming their price is more advantageous.

Re: Got my Walther LP500 - but there's a catch

I wonder if there were some issues with the carbon fiber air cylinders?

Re: Who makes a nice pellet shaker box?

Another problem I've always had with all shaker boxes is I spent way to much time individually putting pellets into the holes because the close the lid and shake never really worked for me, I'd say only got 70% of the pellets into the holes. Anyone have a technique that works better?

Re: Who makes a nice pellet shaker box?

I own several different pellet shaker boxes, seems like they are all put together the same way and look identical or very similar. The problem I run into is eventually part of the platform stops rising to the proper level when the box is opened which makes it hard to get the pellets out. Seems like ...

Re: Pistol shooting shoes...do they work?

I looked online at the Corami shooting shoes, they look very good. If I didn't own a good pair of Sauer shoes, I'd definitely consider the Corami. BTW if anyone reading this forum is interested, I have a pair of (Men's US 11) Champion's Choice Victory Model in as new condition along with the origina...

Re: Pistol shooting shoes...do they work?

I believe the pistol shooting shoes sold by Champions Choice and Creedmoor look very similar but one is blue and the other is red. They look to be the same quality but many sizes are out of stock. I know they are comfortable but need an insole added for arch support as I mentioned in a post on page ...

Re: Pistol shooting shoes...do they work?

I will add this to my above post, the Champions Choice shooting shoes and the Sauer Easy Top feel extremely flat to my feet and I had to add a 3/4 arch support: Protalus ET75.

Re: Pistol shooting shoes...do they work?

I own a pair of shooting shoes that I purchased from "Champions Choice" and I like them, they are more affordable and I feel that in my pistol stance I feel more stable than other types of flat shoes made for other purposes. With that said I also own a pair of the current Sauer Easy Top sh...

Re: Feinwerkbau P8X review: how to improve it?

I currently own A FWB model 2, P 8X, and a Morini CM 200EI. I sold my Steyr EVO 10 and Walther LP500. They all are highly accurate, it's a matter of personal choice. One feature I really like about my P 8X is the ease of adjusting the rear sight with the turn of a dial..no tools required. I don't re...

Re: Is 10 Year Old Scuba Air Ok For Pistol?

I'm sure the compressed air is fine to use to refill your air pistol but of course I would not use it for scuba diving.
When the compressed air is used up you will have to have the tank hydro tested if you want to refill it.

Re: Assistance Needed FWB P 8X air pistol

Now I'm experiencing too much travel on the trigger before my shot breaks. I've read the instruction manual and have tried to make small changes one by one. Feeling no difference I put the adjustment back to where it was so as not to cause any additional issues. Please enlighten me if you know how I...

Re: Assistance Needed FWB P 8X air pistol

I took the grip off and looked at the back of the pistol. The absorber and position looked good. I examined the opening below the absorber (I’m not sure exactly what it's called) perhaps where the sear engages? Looked a bit dirty so I wiped it with a clean cotton swab, btw the last page of the manua...

Re: Assistance Needed FWB P 8X air pistol

Thanks for the suggestions so far. I will take the grip off and make an inspection based upon the suggestions and report back. The problem seemed to occur as I was attempting to lighten the trigger pull and in an attempt to correct the problem I ended up adjusting F1, F2, S1, the trigger stop screw,...

Re: Need advice on filling my Morini 162ei

I just want to reiterate to turn the scuba tank on very slowly and as soon as you hear the hiss of air watch the dial gauge on the cylinder being filled and turn the valve off when the dial indicates full. Do not overfill. The object is to fill slowly so the cylinder does not heat up and/or get warm...
