2008 (2nd half) Pistol Competition

[Phantom Sniper]

Hi Jim, I fear co2 would be out of it, unless you have one that requires physical effort to cock it.

cheers
Graeme

p.s. nice to see familiar names and a new ones on board.

Graeme,
I only own 3 Co2 pistols (well will do when the next one arrives)
They are a CP99 and can be cocked manually by pulling the slide back.
Must admit, its accuracy is better like that
And my Crosman 375 can also be cocked manually.
My Gammo R77 (when it arives I should think is similar).
Can we enter using these?

Go on, add me, I will really try to get some shot for this, will use my Gamo Compact or my Webley Nemesis

Hi Tony
I am afraid I do not know the pistols in question. The aim of the competition was to use guns that require some degree of effort to cock so that over the course of 20 shots some muscle will have been used and hence the heart rate raised albeit slightly, (unless your arteries are as clogged as mine!) I would guess (but could be wrong) that in cocking your co2's that you need very little effort whereas the spring and pnuematics do have an amount of resistance involved.
For that reason I would have to turn down your entry. Sorry.
regards
Graeme
