Re: Air rifle sweaty hands NRA rules question?

Use something as simple as a towel on the offhand stand. No fuss and no worries about getting nailed for rule infraction.

Re: Shooting Lens prescription

Red,
My optician simply asked the measurement from eye to front sight to get the correct focal plane for my monocle (rifle). If you deal with a business that does shooting glasses, they should know the best corrections to her regular prescription that will be most affective for her.

Re: NRA Smallbore Survey

Mr, Rocketo,
Soooo, this survey went out to an exclusive group??

I see exclusive, but read " a small group that is only a small percentage of smallbore shooters that compete in hundreds of NRA matchs each year"?

Am I just looking into this wrong?

Re: CMP Smallbore at Camp Perry 2018?

ASSA does not limit itself to the "New England" states shooting community, so lets get that idea out of the way now. ASSA was created to basically show the NRA how dipleased many shooters are with the way they have handled the sport for several years. The NRA didn't listen to their competi...

Re: CMP Smallbore at Camp Perry 2018?

Who cares if NRA is involved. They made their bed. Just bring Smallbore Nationals to Camp Perry, whoever sanctions it. Maybe Nra can add smallbore to their real desire, and make it 4 gun, they could then hang their hat on that till it's not profitable. ASSA 3P event was nice with a lot of jrs and ev...

Re: Blinder for non-aimaing eye for scope shooting

10.9 has clip on blinders made for headbands. If used on hat brim, it is a little futher from eye (about 1/2 way down brim). I like it at end of brim, so I actually cut the end of the blinder clip off, and epoxy it back on at other end of clip. This gives more distance between eye and blinder to bet...

Re: McKenna Shooting Sports

Ordered stuff in june of last year. Never recieved, yet card was charged. One piece was shipped which was manufactured wrong and clearly put on rifle at one point. Filed a claim with my credit card for reimbursment. Not a good person to deal with.

The sleeves are interchangable. I cracked my daughter's 19 series amd just replaced it with my 16 series till a new one came. I think it was around $20 from Breznovich??

Re: Advice on Smallbore rifle

I looked the Turbos over from muzzle to buttplate, and that is indeed a great rifle. They do have different barrel configurations for different shooters. The guys at the table really showed enthusiasm over the rifles and I am sure they would help you in any way possible to get the best rifle in your...

Re: Anschutz 9015 Club VS Junior Air Cylinder

I feel that the shot count is not going to be a problem as much as the rifle adjustability will be. Are you filling from scuba tanks? If so, how many shooters and how many tanks do you have and how are you filling the scuba tanks. The adjustability is always a concern when dealing with various body ...

Re: Announcement New American Smallbore Shooting Associatio

I think its a great idea. I know Benyo and Gestl, and think they would have their ducks in a row when it comes to starting such an endevor. My daughter and I plan on joining and attending for sure.

If you are looking for light weight, check out http://www.shootingequipment.de . They engineer and actually produce their own equipment. Their stands are a great deal more economical and you will have a much better experience with this company.

Re: Is this illegal for air rifle?

I think your son is fine (at this point). The new rule can be viewed in various ways. What "I" think they are trying to avoid are wieghts "taped" onto the rifle. Even stick on one's that you have should be good, but then again, I am not a rules judge.
