You've heard the old saying: Bullseye matches are won in the long line, and lost in the short line. If I recreate the short line groups below from last NC Service Pistol Championship, then by God's grace I shall and I will deliver excellence.



PSM, that thing is an absolute tack driver. I shot it first 4 years ago and just couldn't put it down. Just don't let the rubber o-ring gets too dry out. Gasoline soak or air rifle lube will do the trick IIRC. A few that went pfffft at Camp Perry Gary Anderson competition center had that problem. Otherwise, that's a shooter that your children's children will use! Also not surprised your wife does so well. Ladies make better marksmanship student. You tell xyz fundamentals and they do exactly that....versus boys/guys who run it first through "wait, that's not how James Bond/Jason Bourne/Chuck Norris/SEALS in the movies do it"

The only negatives as far as skill transferrability to center fire pistol are the different grip angle and position of trigger finger (you use tip of the finger with that hair trigger, right?). Otherwise, it's a solid solid platform to build position, follow through, and most of all, the mental skills.

Good Info

Thanks for posting all of this. I forgot how useful this can be in certain environments and something I'll consider for my wife and boys.

Soon after I relocated from Europe back to CONUS, I had a roommate that shot an air pistol religiously. It was an M9 replica and he basically taught himself how to shoot in the basement. After a year, he was one of the best pistol shots I had met, when it came to accuracy.

Now to search for a reasonable pistol for the family.
