Can some tell me about this pistol? Would a new Anshuts be a better choice as far as new technology? How well do they shoot? When did they first come out? Is it pretty close to the LP-10? What are the differences between the LP1 and 10?

AJ, I think my reply will reflect most readers thoughts.

Do a search using LP1, LP10 and LP@ (or whatever else interests you).
This will give you plenty to mull over.
You can even search the archives for older info.

Then, if you still have questions, be sure to ask them here.

The LP1 was/is a world class AP , some would say better than the LP10 . Dont let CO2 scare you off , it's available anywhere there is a fire extinguisher shop . If you can get a sharp deal on an LP1 , take it . Th Anchutz is basically a different interpretation of the LP10 theme , cant really go wrong either way .

IIRC, it was good enough to win the gold medal at the last Olympics.

I am very happy with my LP1, which I bought used a few years ago. As noted by others, the CO2 version is an excellent choice. I converted mine to CA since I was already set up with a SCUBA tank, valves, etc. Pilkington sells the conversion kits.

You cannot go wrong with the LP1. The Anschutz might be a great pistol but you do not see it on the line. You would be able to sell your Steyr quite easily. I have a Lp1 and it came from Pilkington.

You don't see it on the line where? :) I shoot an LP10P myself, but in our AP league out here in WA, there were several shooters with LP@ guns. To me, it looked like the differences were mostly minor, almost cosmetic, like the difference between a Ford and a Mercury.
