Gamo 10m Pistol Competition

[dunn220]

Hi guys,
I'm glad to see that the guide on adjusting the Compact trigger on my 'Postcardfromspain' website is of use to you

Even doing the 1st stage of trigger adjustment, deepening the hole, works very well right up to the point where you almost have a hair trigger

To compensate for muzzle flip, blue-tacking melted down pellets into the front recess hole works quite well.

Just a note; Although the Compact is advertised as having an adjustable trigger, it's bull. The only adjustment you can really make is turning the blade to the left or the right........That screw in the plastic does absolutely nothing unless the hole is deepened which allows the screw to actually make contact

The Gamo AF10 is a kids Co2 plinker which shoots lead balls........ok for tin cans at 5 yards

cheers Nige,

ive just completed stage 1 of operation "must get a reasonable score",

ive just widened the front hole(ooer) and it works

trigger seems alot better now, i would even say it seems lighter too perhaps the increased angle helps to trip the sear...

also as an added bonus i still have all my fingers and the gun is still working and immaculate....


many thanks for that site

I will use this reply to update scores as they come in



N.B..I HAVE MOVED THIS UPDATE TO THE SECOND REPLY OF THIS THREAD TO MAKE IT EASIER TO FIND.



Rockphoon, If you are able to sort some sort of winners medal, I for one would be willing to chip in.
Cheers

Hi Graeme

Wait for it:-

27; 27; 27; 28 (Total 109)

Room for improvement I believe!

There is no palm shelf on my Compact so obviously at a massive disadvantage!

HI Roger
welcome on board, certainly consistent!
Improvement is what its all about, hopefully competing will spur us all on a bit, and of course the palm shelf should help.
No doubt see you next week at the club.
cheers

I will shoot my last two cards at Sutton Coldfield this PM. Thanks to all who are taking part.

My last two scores for September: 34x50 and 42x50. Slight improvement with the last card! My score for September is 152x200. To encourage entries, I will put the names of everyone who enters (except me) in my hat and will pick someone out at random. The name chosen will get a special Gamo Pistol Competition prize sent to them. It will have to be a UK resident as it might cost too much to post abroad.

Cheers Rockphoon, kind of you to add some extra interest to the competition.
a nice 42 in your cards as well, don't know about you but I get quite a buzz just breaking the 40 point barrier.

Cheers

i have left my girlfriend with instructions to purchase a gamo compact.
she is left handed, and i am right handed, this could be interesting!
what targets do we need?
do we send you the cards?
we should be submitting scores soon.

I'm up for this, not fired my Compact for ages so it'll be good to get it out

Can I clarify some rules please?

I assume it's one handed shooting, as 10m?
Is there a specific height for the target above the floor in the 10m rules?
Had you thought about scans of the targets as an alterntive to photos?

Now to start modding the trigger and adding lead to the front

Cheers

John
