Thank you.

Anyone know which air pistol Leonid Ekimov used in the WC? Aeron?

In this discussion on free pistols no one has mentioned the new Pardini Electronic Free Pistol. Has anyone used, or seen one? Doesn't Larry Carter service Pardinis?

Fair warning.

The Boston Globe is owned by The New York Times. They are equally ultra-left-wing liberal, anti-gun newspapers.

both the nra and usas list air pistol matches on their websites

My year-old LP10 has an average velocity of 405 f.p.s. (123 m/s) and its accuracy is excellent. I also have a year-old Morini 162EI and its average velocity is 468 f.p.s. (143 m/s) and, like the LP10, its accuracy is excellent. My 18-month-old Pardini K2s's velocity is 514 f.p.s. (157 m/s) and its a...

Read the two articles: "The Vital Problems of Pistol Shooting by Anatoliy Piddubnyy" (Parts 1 & 2) in the Pilkguns Pistol Coaching Index.

They're all you need to know about air and free pistol shooting.

"...I whizz my target back and forth after every shot..."

What effect do you think all that whizzing has on the people shooting around you?

"If you want to see each shot when firing more than one shot per target, why not wind the target back to the firing line (or half way, as many do)?" How convenient. Why not just use a scope. They are quite harmless. They don't bother or distract anyone - unlike reeling in targets half-way ...

If you were shooting one-shot-per-paper-target or you were using an electronic target system with TV monitors it would make sense that a scope would not be allowed. But it makes no sense to be denied the use of a scope if you are shooting more than one shot on a paper target. Even with just two-shot...

What a sad state of affairs. We older, non-Olympics-contending “club” shooters are seen as and treated simply as donors by USAS. And USAS seems to be letting us down at all levels. A few months ago the man who runs a monthly USAS air pistol PTO asked the people in each relay to vote on whether he sh...

Lapua "Midas" and "Pistol King" ammunition is 1066 fps

Pistol King is 952 fps.

Yes. The question was what is the Top standard pistol on market? In my opinion, it is the Walther GSP Expert.

Walther GSP Expert

Is the P44 sold in the US?

Ted,

I can read it just fine.

Many thanks,

Does anyone have a match schedule for the USAS Nationals?

"When you get your Morini you'll see what I mean. The weight adjustments you mention go from very very light to super light."

Actually the CM84E trigger is adjustable to 900 grams, almost twice that of an air pistol.

I have used the tiny NG 20x33 spotting scopes, offered by our hosts, for two years. They have excellent resolution from 10M to 50M and all Ms in between. They weight next to nothing and they fit easily in any pistol box. To mount them on my pistol boxes, I drill a hole in a block of wood and screw t...

Goof Off.
