Post by Ed-WI »

What is a good air or CO2 pellet pistol for kids to use in rapid fire competitions?

I didn't know you could shoot rapid fire using air/CO2.

There are two ISSF 5-shot matches at 10m:
- 10 m Air Pistol Five Target Event, and
- 10 m Air Pistol Standard Event

Rules at 8.20 in the 2009 rules

Indeed, and you can also shoot all the 25M events with 5-shot air pistols, as we in the UK do. Best option has to be the Steyr LP50, or a 2nd hand LP5. There are other, cheaper models around, but I can't comment on how good or reliable they are.
