Standard 160 with case, tools, etc.

To all you Hammerli experts, what is the average price for a Hammerli 160 in "like new" condition?

Thanks

It seems to me that the .75m +/-.50m must be a typo that has never been corrected. At .25m, the bottom of your target is below ground level. How can that be! I guess it is possible if you are shooting on a downhill range, but not on a flat range.

The info on the LP400 grip sizes is hidden in their website. Go to: Carl Walther Sporting Arms website/Sport Shooter Portal/Air Pistol/LP400/Downloads/Walther News 2010/02 /sheets 4 & 5 You will see the recommended grip sizes based on your hand's width. Hope you enjoy your new pistol. A lot of o...

You are definitely not a Medium. Go to their website, open the pistol site, and under downloads, you will see the recommended grip sizes.

To those guys out there shooting factory shells in the U.S., is there a big difference between the cheaper Rio international loads and the more expensive Winchester and Remington loads. Which ones have the softer recoil, and can you really notice the difference in recoil and pattern performance. Tha...

$1,500 for a NIB Pardini FPM is a great deal. I think their list price was $2,250 last time I checked. I have own mine for about 4 months. Very nice trigger. It has a lot of rake on the grip, just like the Morini CM-84E. Be careful with the grip size. Their small size is really a small/medium and th...

Swoffer, the 2012 Walther catalog list the medium grip as 85 mm and the large as 93 mm. If you go to the Carl Walther Sporting Arms website and look for the 2010/2012 catalog, you will find pictures of all the recommended grip sizes. Looks like their grips run a bit smaller than normal.

Try Kruger-USA. They are the official NRA target provider and they also sell ISSF targets. I think the dealer is located in Oregon. I have ordered several times from them. Their prices are reasonable and the targets are very good.
Our host Pilkington also sells good quality targets.

Currently in production,

For mechanical triggers:
Pardini FPM, Hammerli FP60 & Matchguns MG5

For electronic triggers:
Morini CM84E, Pardini FPE & Matchguns MG5E

You can get a Stanley at Home Depot or Office Depot. Mine works great. I would stay away from plastic stapler. Metal ones are more durable.

Sorry for the late notice, but I just found out that we will also be shooting Standard Pistol at our next week's PTO. Come and join us.

The International Sport Pistol event is for ladies and juniors only. Men shoot Center Fire instead, which is shot with a .32 or larger caliber gun. We will not be shooting Center Fire at this event. Match program is listed on "califpistolmatches.com" .

Thanks

To clear any confusion out there, this match is open to everybody. Membership to USA Shooting is not required to shoot this event. Those who want to register their targets with USAS will need to be members or become members at the match. Bullseye shooters willing to give Free Pistol a try are welcom...

The Bridge Jr. Club is having a Free and Sport Pistol PTO at Prado Shooting Park on Saturday October 27th. Their Air Pistol PTO will be held the next Saturday November 3rd at their La Puente range. Match info will soon be posted on califpistolmatches.com .

Thanks

Have anybody tried the new CM84E factory compensators? I bought my gun 2 years ago and it came with the old factory compensator. Do the new compensators really reduce muzzle flip? I wonder if somebody here had the old one, put a new one, and saw or felt a difference after installing the new one. Tha...

There are several online retailers that sell Lapua. Are you allowed to import ammo to Puerto Rico? If not, you may want to talk to a gun store owner and maybe he/she can order it for you. Good luck!

"Fwiw, according to Larry Carter the 160 is the best 50-meter pistol Hammerli ever built."

What a terrible thing to say. Now I am going to have to buy one! As if I don't have enough free pistols already!

I have the same problem at my indoor range. Whenever possible, I go when the range just opens. They are never packed early, but they do get busy in the afternoon. The other thing I do is try to get the end lanes. With these lanes you are only bothered by one shooter. I know is hard to concentrate wh...
