    If you can load a pellet singly, (and do so), if it fits the box, and lifts the 500gm weight, and the grip is legal (rules on palm shelf limits), and a standard grip is legal, then it will pass EC, its legal and you could use it.

    That said, as a 10 mt single shot match pistol, its not over competitive compared to a modern PCP, or even a true single shot match pistol of any age, but they are great fun. We had one as a club pistol for five shot, the trigger is a a bit agricultural, and from my recollection of our old club one is it would lift the weight easily, its was quite heavy, if you tried to get the trigger even close to 500 gms, as soon as you touched the trigger it would go fully auto!

    Brrrrrrrp! All gone! Great fun but a bit disconcerting for those not aware or expecting it!

    Have Fun

    I started comps with an Steyr LP5 then went to an LP10 more refined trigger
    Rink grips tended to be undersize,their medium was most peoples' small

    I would ponder the wisdom of spending much money on the grips. If you can buy or make appropriate grips for under £50, then it is a cheapish experiment. Otherwise suggest watching for a good second hand target pistol that is more suited to what you want.

    No problems there for me.
    I have a nice ambidextrous FAS 6004 which goes well.
    I can't see the problem with making something work better for you if you really like it.
    Not every decision in life has to be about practicalities

    I'm not too aux fax with many of the rules, but for sure; the palm shelf has to be flat, my OR 10 failed due to sculpting on it. The box is still used as is the 500g weight for trigger pull. I think you would have to have a single shot mag or be able to load manually. There are a lot of regs about grips. I think the best first off is to check out the rules using the link provided to be sure.
