Hi all i just got a Steyr lg110 2nd hand but did not come with the barrel weights. Iam just starting out so dont know if these are neccesary or not,although i can say that i do find it very hard to stabalise the gun while aiming?
If anyone could give me some advise it would be greatly appreciated?

Hi
I have an LG-110 and with no muzzle weights fitted it is still slightly muzzle heavy. A little muzzle heaviness is good but will vary in how much from one shooter to another. Its what suits you.
You must also decide what over all weight suits you, i like 5KG but you
may not. Arriving at your preferred weight and then balance takes a bit of
trial and error.
I like to have the gun balance about 3-5 CM in front of the support hand position, so check this out before you buy spare weights.
A more useful weight is the horse shoe shaped weight that can be slid along the rear section of the Steyr's barrel. This is very good for fine tuning the balance point.
Check out your Steyr dealer for spares and accessories.
