I like the ball joint adjustability of the Walther LP 440 and 500. I have owned Steyr and FWB P8x and found grip adjustment last century compared to current model Walther.

I have found the option suggested by GWhite has worked well for me over the years.
In fact you can buy an Evo 10 with one long and one compact cylinder.

Thank you David. Do you have any suggestions where to look within Australia ?
Privately importing one from Germany looks like it will be seized at customs.

Thank you Doug. I will follow this up

Many thanks Dave. I may investigate further as I am not having any luck finding a SP20 extractor in order to rejuvenate my latest paperweight.

Does anyone know if the extractor from a GSP500 in .32 can be interchanged and/or used in a Hammerli SP20 .32 ?

I have a .32 MR73 match and some years back I owned both the .38 special and .32 at the same time.
For me the.32 is a much sweeter and equally accurate pistol to own. From a clamped rest it consistently shot a 1" group at 25 m.

No confusion.
If you watch the video posted by Arcturus you will see that the firearm explosion was caused by using O2 ( pure oxygen ) from a hospital.
As well the post by Arcturus mentions never to use pure O2 to which I agree with completely.

O2 definitely but I don’t think the same danger exists with CO2.

Many thanks Gwelo . However while watching the installation video they mentioned that the kit is only for single shot Steyr CO2 pistols and a 5 shot Steyr must be returned to the factory in Austria for fitment.

Definitely the safer and most sensible approach is to buy the conversion kit, however my original query was to ask if it was possible without the added expense.
I certainly appreciate the input by all involved.

Thanks porkchop. I will have to investigate the price, but at the moment it may not be worth the expense.

Thanks PJ and Doug.

My Steyr CO2 cylinders have 250 bar ( 3626 psi ) stamped on them and that is why I don’t have pressure concerns using the 200 bar ( 2900 psi ) O2.

I have a Steyr LP5 that I bought new in 1996 and have been wondering if it would run on O2 without any modifications other than an adapter. It seems that the pressure between CO2 and O2 are within the same ballpark and the seals that last with CO2 should not be detrimentally affected by compressed a...

Silicone grease only as lube.

Considering that you already have a Morini CM 22 M I would not consider buying a RF version of either brand unless you are planning on replacing the CM22. The performance difference between the standard and RF is an insignificant advantage for most shooters. I would save the money.....my personal op...

I couldn't agree more Doug.

I have a DES 2000 and the magazine enters from the bottom. Mags look identical.

I recently found out that the Matchgun factory is in financial difficulty and the factory has closed.
They are still able to ship parts but no pistols are being produced.

Great video tutorial Doug. These videos would have made my life much easier back in 2006 when I purchased my first MG2
