ahg-Anschütz also offers a solution like that - in fact I think they were the first to publish it. But ahg only shows it on their german website, not in the english version: http://ahg.anschuetz-sport.com/index.php5?menu=48&sprache=0&seite=83&produktID=1028 These solutions have been acce...

Even if both rifles (FWB 600/601/02/03 seen as one) need approx. the same push/power for compressing the air (we tested that against a scale many years ago), the difference is the direction of the lever action. Most shooters preferred the FWB-system (or Anschütz 2001/2) because the push goes against...

Conradin, this is no town- or club championship, it's a world cup. Could you imagine, that a soccer player (or the referee) arrives late and joins the game 15 minutes after the start? Unfortunately most of the TV clips of finals show only the competition shots. But in most of the ISSF finals they ha...

It was of course Munkhys fault, no doubt about that. That she would have been german champion without the 2 point-penalty was also a good reminder for her for the future to be at preparation area in time, she told me.

Yeah, Frank, the Geco seems to be a "hot candidate" (even though the logo can be clearly seen on the box).

Hm, I'm working "auf Bergheim", but in my heart I will always be a "Dortmunder" and Westphalian, not a Sauerländer (das sind doch Würstchen, oder? :) )

Obviously. You had to be in the preparation area for the German Championships at least 20 minutes before the final begins, in ISSF competitions it is 30 minutes earlier: http://www.issf-sports.org/documents/rules/2013/ISSFRuleBook2013-1st-ENG.pdf see here page 271, Rule 6.17.1.3 Athletes must report...

Yes, "Munkhy" has again switched back to Walther, both air pistol (LP 400 Aluminum) and SSP. With the SSP she became german champion in 2013, with air pistol 4th (due to minus 2 points for arriving 2 min too late in the final preperation area, difference to the 1st place was 1.8 points). A...

That was no contradiction. I think that anybody who has no own experienced Coach will Benefiz from from books like this one.

So, the main difference to other shooting books is, also according to your thesis, Rob (which is right of course), that Reinkemeiers books don't tell you "the one way how it has to be done" - but you see in many, many pictures and drawings, how the actual top shooters of the world do it. T...

Gwhite, please use the link that I and also j-team mentioned:

http://shop.mec-shot.com/en/book---pist ... 1/item/208

Before that perhaps change the language of the online-shop to english (Top right corner). No. 411 is really the english book, just look at the cover.

Re: 2014 WCF The ending of Toz-35

The "all star" event saw almost everyone uses a Morini. Only two Toz-35 made it and Zlatic came in last. "Zlatic came in last..." of the eight finalists, which makes a difference: He will be officially ranked as place 8 in the WCF, that's a lot. And he started the final with thr...

Nothing new, like german Karl Wenk explained, when he shot the first 600 out of 600 points in smallbore-prone some decades ago: "You shoot a ten, and then you simply repeat that procedure 59 times"!
