http://www.ziegeleng.com/ makes a very robust aluminum BE case. The model they feature is a 4 gun version, but they can make them smaller. The company makes all sorts of customer specified cases in aluminum and titanium. & Ken Saunders is selling his boxes through Larry's - https://www.larrysgun...

Thanks rkamy - I do have my eye out or certain spare parts. It's good to know that egun lists small parts as well. And yes, mine is from ~1970. Fortunately the classic match air rifles from Walther, FWB etc.. were very well made. If you don't abuse them, they're typically easy to keep running and pe...

Does the MantisX system expose its calibration parameters? - how do you tune it for a specific pistol, or has that not been necessary?

Also is it entirely using inertial sensing, there is no camera ? - so no notion of a target and scoring against that?

excellent - thank you! - seems they're fine w/ shipping to the US & the prices are sane. Plus they have a bunch of parts that will be useful spares. I'd found another German supplier of seals, but they were sold with a kit to increase the rifle's velocity. It appears that Waffen-Center is offeri...

thank you! - missed your response 'til now. I may need to go with a substitute as LGV seals have become a rarity, as have repair techs.

ah, didn't know Scott works on the classics - I'll check-in with him. thanks

update - nope. They don't have the parts to perform a seal job on the LGV

I have a Walther LGV Spezial that ( I suspect ) needs new seals - pressure is weak and sounds a bit burpy when firing. Who is currently working on these and can turn-around a repair reliably? Alternatively - could (should?) a complete amateur replace the seals on a classic LGV if they have some mech...

Here's a thread on TFL in which one of the members describes his results from a bushing conversion on the 97B. They're pretty impressive. http://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=437142 look for the posts by schmeky e.g. One of the main reasons the 97 is so accurate out of the box is due to ...

The DU-10 is not a match pistol and was never intended to be. But it is decently accurate when tuned a bit. I can accomplish moderately sized single hole groups at 10M on a good day. Like William, I have never been bothered by the reliability issues that people complain about - I use club grade pell...

Thanks for all of the responses! I've performed a few tests which seem to confirm that the paper is the culprit. For the first series I'd rolled a fresh sheet of duct seal, and shot into this directly, w/o an intervening paper layer. All of the embedded pellets were more or less correct in their ori...

what's a typical velocity for a 747? Will I damage the action if I adjust the stroke engagement to a distance beyond the prescribed range? just to be clear, by tumbling I mean that it's evident that some pellets have rotated such that they're oriented laterally when they strike the target. Are 747's...

Hello Everyone: I hope that this question hasn't been addressed repeatedly, but my searches haven't turned-up anything. I'm very new to AP, shooting a 747, and am tearing gaping irregularly shaped holes in the target. Unfortunately I don't have a chronograph to determine their velocity, but by the f...
