    Noooo, my eyes! You were doing so well!


    (is that the Phil that used to get up LV for IPAS by any chance?)
    Not at LV.
    Most of my shooting was at EBSC.
    Don't go there often now.
    Spent many, many years shooting centre fire pistol there. 😊

    Good thread this has become. Your answer made me think back to my centrefire pistol days. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE all airguns to death, HOWEVER, that said I do miss shooting my centre fire pistols.

    I too think that Haenel had something when they came up with the Luger lookalike, their model 28. Here is mine in its period case

    Ah, had you mixed up with someone else, beg your pardon.
    I used to go down EBSC for IPAS and PP on tuesdays, but had to stop a few years ago due to time and work constraints.
    Good deals with these members

    If it had ever made it into production, the Webley Whiting would certainly have been a contender in this category.

    From the Collins English Dictionary:- 'Something that is graceful is attractive because it has a pleasing shape or style'

    I think some of you are 'stretching' the definition somewhat

    This thread certainly proves the old adage "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

    Good job we all like different things-women, pistols, music etc etc
    Never go off half cocked....

    All lies matter
