Re: TSA locks and shipping

Just to add a little bit more. When you check your bag you have to declare that you have a firearm(s) show that it is unloaded and include the declaration card (signed by you and the ticket agent) in the case. Lock it back up with Non-TSA locks. You keep have the keys to it. You need a lock for ever...

Re: air pistol for timed, rapid fire practice?

Can the magazine advance mechanism be disabled? seems like that's a bit jarring? If you have both LP10 and LP50... I would love to see a picture with the grips off side by side... i want to see if the LP10 can use the 1911 grip that Pilk sells. I don't know if the advance mechanism can be defeated....

Re: air pistol for timed, rapid fire practice?

Chuckiep "I'm not sure the LP50 is ISSF legal??" Yes the LP50 is legal for ISSF competition, I have shot mine in numerous matches and even shot it in the 2012 Olympic team try outs. I have seen other LP50's on the line as well. You can only load 1 pellet at a time, the single shot magazin...

Re: LP50 for timed and rapid training

Just to emphasize what Neil said, I too found the 1911 grip adapter to be counter productive. With the long barrel and balance point being more forward than with an actual 1911, not to mention the completely different operating characteristics of the trigger, it just felt wrong. Tha's what I experi...

Re: LP50 for timed and rapid training

I use the LP50 for timed and rapid fire training in my basement also. I previously posted some info on http://targettalk.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=50933 Because there is no recoil I found that I was done shooting rapid fire early, I only practice rapid fire with mine and not timed fire. To compen...

Re: Make Shooting Great Again!

Shaky Hands, you are right a new shooter needs to have something he can have confidence in. The link you posted has a very valid point, but it assumes you are already a bullseye shooter to begin with. My point is to show the new prospective shooter that he can try the sport with whatever he has avai...

Re: Non pro shooter looking for first pro quality .22 pistol

BSD After reading the reply's to your request my suggestion is to go with your own gut feeling about what pistol you think you should get. * For every recommendation for a certain model there will be at least 3 comments telling you they had problems with it and it is a piece of junk. * For every rec...

Re: Make Shooting Great Again!

It's always colorful to read these reply's. I was talking to a potential new shooter this summer and was trying to talk him into coming down and shooting in our league. I let him try my AW 93 and my Les Baer 1911, his reply was I would love to shoot but I can't afford guns like that to shoot. He was...

Yes, Check to make sure the grip is not adjusted to high not allowing the sight to be lowered.

Re: Shipping an Air Gun

Air guns are not considered firearms in Michigan anymore. We finally got that changed in 2015.

Re: air pistol for timed, rapid fire practice?

For me the LP 50 was a great investment for bullseye shooting I use an it for timed and rapid fire practice and it is a great tool to improve your scores and technique. 1. Yes they are expensive to purchase – if you are practice, it will pay for itself in a very short time. An example: A 1 hour prac...
