    Just tried a club mate's antique finish Schofield and it balances very well. Not too much obtrusive white markings either. My first shot dropped a 20 yard skittle, as did my third. I also managed to ring a 40 mm bell at 10 yards twice out of 3 shots, so I'm well impressed! Very nice crisp trigger release too.

    Hi John. So how long will it be before you join us in the Schofield Owners Club, then (lol)?

    Don't even go there Gareth!

    I think there there were a few prospective new members at the club this morning as that pistol proved very popular with all who tried it.

    Kind regards,

    John

    I took my deactivated Schofield to Protek Supplies to compare with the Co2 model. It is a pretty good copy; the main differance is that the grip is much bigger than the orginal as it has to contain a 12g Co2 cartridge.

    As far as the business of pellet shells not fitting the BB cylinders goes, I am somewhat surprised.

    It would hardly be cost effective for the manufacturer to produce two different cylinders and then sell them at the same price.

    Maybe it's just down to individual guns whether the shells bind or not.

    That's interesting BJ - did both pistols weigh and balance the same? My preconception of the CO2 Schofield was it would weigh more than it actually did.

    Kind regards,
