Adjusting the Pardini SP trigger

I have just purchased a used SP, and I really like the gun. However, I would like to add some roll to the trigger. Right now I have a moderate-length first stage and then a really crisp second stage, which I'd like to add some roll to. Can anyone tell me which of the screws on the SP trigger module ...

Pleased with SP New

Well, I ended up getting an SP New that I found on GunBroker. I love the trigger on the New. In fact I really like the gun, especially since yesterday I shot the best target of my life - a clean B-8 with 8 Xs. It is so much easier to shoot the SP than the Buckmarks, Rugers, and M41s that I've shot b...

Pardini SPE

Thanks for the info. I found out that the SPE is indeed a predecessor to the SP and actually does have a mechanical trigger. The other thing I found out is the SPE without the barrel weights gave some people fits with the barrel flip it had while doing rapid fire. It does seem like there was a signi...

Pardini SPE

What is a Pardini SPE in good condition worth? Is it an OK entry-level gun? I know they lack the recoil reduction system of the SP and have heard that the .32 cal version had some frame cracking issues, but not so much with the .22. Is there anything I should look out for with the SPE? I had been ho...

Konus Handy 18

Has anyone tried one of the Konus Handy-18 spotting scopes? They seem to be both small and inexpensive. They are only 18 power but for 50 yards, that should be OK.

Here is a link:

Pardini SP and SP New

People don't seem too excited to sell either their older or their newer guns. The SP really seems to be a keeper for most people. That is great, unless you are trying to find one used. . . . . . .

Buckmark grips

You do have to be careful which Buckmark you purchase if you want to get aftermarket grips for it. Generally the standard models like the field, target, and hunter are the ones with aftermarket grips. Many of the new models do not.

Pardini SP vs SP New

I want to purchase a Pardini SP. I have been looking on auction sites and find that there are a number of SPs available. Is there any significant reason to not purchase one of the older SPs? I know there is an issue with the new magazines working in the older models, but also understand the issue ca...
