Re: Pilkguns Responsiveness?
They are likely out of the shop. My experience with them on the phone has been great. I spoke with them on land line, they had me text a picture, identified the issue immediately and sent me the (tiny spring) part with free shipping.

Re: Women's Air Pistol at the Olympics
Have seen multiple articles and pics of her and not a single one about her gold medal winning teammate that happens to weigh I'm guessing 35lbs more than her? I don't think it's good for any sport; you don't have to be the best you just have to be prettier. Have also seen and been forwarded items fr...

Re: Why is Pardini K12 unpopular
Any AP in 2024 that lacks 4 simple screws to help adjust L, R, U, D so it will point where I want/need before making any modifications to the grip has, not a fatal flaw, but one that is so easily remedied that it seems foolish not to "fix".

Re: Pistol Pellets: 7.0 gr vs. 8.2 grain ?
Why does it seem that nobody considers the possibility that a pellet that is half a millimeter less precise than pellet X, is just as likely to put that .5mm deviation L, R, H, or L into a higher ring?

Re: Refreshing or resetting eyes between shots
For whatever it might be worth, I carry a little bottle of artificial tears in my range bag. A drop or two does seem to make a subtle difference in "comfort" felt mostly when you blink. Costs 2 or 3 bucks a year, definitely doesn't do anything negative when I remember to use. I have seen a...

Re: Krueger Targets From Atlanta, GA
If you bought multiple packs instead of just one I think you'd see the average shipping cost level out. I don't remember the details but the more targets you buy, discounts kick in in the paper that offset the cost of shipping. Shipping costs are up all across the board.

Re: You wanna buy WHAT?
"the idea is that if I can shoot well with a worse trigger, I'll shoot better with a better one" I don't think this tactic works (in multiple fields) in the way one would hope. Practicing something mechanical that is different (harder) than the actual task you hope to perform just makes yo...

Iron sights/ rulebook query

Re: Where are You Aiming Nowadays?
Funny I was just a few hours ago thinking about how strange it is that our $2000.00 pistols are set up (below what we want to hit) for "precision" hits on a very specific printed target, but if you wanted to hit almost any other random " target" like a specific nut or leaf on a t...

Re: Vuity Eye drops
Not to hijack into a different topic but; I sometimes use a drop or two of artificial tears before shooting. I does somehow feel better, slippery, easier to blink. Not a huge night/day difference but for the couple bucks it costs I think worth the (minimal) effort.
