Hello mates !
I've been following this thread and read with pleasure you like both CP1 and Lov 21.
I think we share the same ideas.
Cp1 is definitely a bargain for it's price.
it is powerfull enough even for 20 yards (better take the .22 model to see the holes in the target)
the trigger is decent but not quite as good as the lov's.
Lov 21 has a wonderful trigger that people are not use to until they buy a real match target pistol at ten times its price. It is weighted as low as 18 Oz, which is match grade, one stage, crisp and direct : its travel until it fires is as low as 2.3 milimeters ! Beginers should be advised that once the pistol is cocked, they'd better think twice before touching it if it is not yet pointed at the black of the target.
Just like a match pistol.
the CO2 capsule takes its place in the handle, and as you screw lock the cap, it empties completely inside the
tank. It is a good thing: CO2 becomes then gas and not liquid like If it stayed in the capsule : no cold effect, the shot are far better regulated.
I love it's sovietic plain design.... Yes it is full polymer and minimalistic but If you like shooting with dark open iron sights, single handed, It is a really good Target school pistol.
Old Shool...
I did not find any competitor in its price range.
It is a bit loud though, I mesured It at :
Lov21 : 101.8 dB
Crosman 1377 at 2 pumps : 95 dB (I shoot in my Montmartre's flat at 7 yards)
crosman 2300T: 100.2 dB
Stoeger XP4 (HW40 clone) : 100.5 dB
CP2 pistol configuration with it's provided moderator : 93.5 dB.
this was my opinion about Lov21 pistol.
The best sport single shooter in its price range to me.
I wish you a good week end.
It is raining and a bit cold in Paris today, so it's a perfect day for indoor shooting.
à bientôt !
Merci les amis !
