I'm a pistol shooter, so my responses are a bit off topic to the OP's first post. However, I've been shooting since 1982, but does that qualify me as old if I don't have gray strands in my long locks? I enjoy seeing juniors -- or any new competitors - at my local matches. I have no problems with any...

I have ordered parts for my 602 from factory, but AFAIK they no longer have magazine in stock. The last time I've seen 602 magazine for sale on the internet is from Larrys Gun web site @$100 each! You can try Westlake Engineering in UK, I think they still manufacturing UK legal versins of Britarm p...

My last contact was with carlascarabello@libero.it
or maybe info@dominoguns.com
Thanks much for the info. I'll look into this also.

Neal Stepp in FT. Worth is the man you need to talk to. http://www.iss-internationalshootersservice.com/ I just bought parts for my Domino 602 from him. Great service. Thanks... I had forgotten about him. I've been away from the sport for a while and am just getting back into the swing of things. A...

Thanks, I tried his site already. Larry offers grips and other accessories, but not specifically the magazines. The LGI website does not show all that Larry Carter has in his "private inventory" which is considerably more than the website shows., you should contact them and ask for Deanna...

FAS 602

Is there a US distributor for FAS pistol accessories, specifically magazines? I've seen the question posted a few times, but didn't happen to catch the answer. The Internet has proven to be pretty useless in helping me. The FAS I currently own was originally purchased from Don Nygord. That shows you...

Two things that have helped me:

1. Check if you have a proper grip each time
2. Don't over hold
3. Practice, practice, practice

Some days will be good and some days will be bad. In the end, you're going to try to minimize your boo-boos and bring it all together in one neat, little package.

It's interesting that you say that you get razzed for stretching. One of my former friends was the National Free Pistol Champ some years ago, and he asked why I didn't stretch before practicing. I didn't want to have to tell him that I was very relaxed shooting in my robe and slippers. Guess he coul...

My thanks again to everyone for his/her helpful tips. I have an appointment in two weeks to meet with the local ammo shop that will be supplying the .38 special ammo. The guy who handles their Bullseye ammo agrees with you about the 148 gr HBWC. It'll be fun to take it out to the range afterwards. N...

I would like to always look on the bright side of things and not get wrapped up in doom and gloom. We're shooters because we enjoy the competition and a good fight. I look at the general state of our country in the same way. The people before us gave their lives; they didn't give up. I have hope bec...

You have a series of good advice from the other posters. I have two dogs and two guinea pigs who qualify as my audience when I'm practicing a full match in my laundry room. I have the SteyrLP10. I've also owned a FWB and LP1. I have to say that most air pistols sound loud indoors to me just because....

I ran into David G. at the Coyote Brunch, and he mentioned your club getting the new equipment in. I'm very excited for all of you -- congrats!

Congrats on the new toy!

How do you like the Ultra Dot? I have one on my Hammerli 215. For the last couple of years, that gun's been hibernating in the safe.

I'm still running around with my FAS 602 with iron sights and am not sure I have the patience to return to optics.

Best of luck to you!

Just a PS

After digging around on the Internet (how did we survive before its invention??), I finally figured out why I was so confused, which is pretty typical - lol The base of the magazine is also stamped ".38 Special." Luckily, Clark sells the magazines, so I'll have fun at the range. Being para...
