Pardini owners

[thirdwheel]

Having shot the P10 And K58 and my main competition pistol is the K12, here is what I think but it is only words and cannot properly describe the feeling, also I've worked on the P10, K58 and K12 so all the triggers have been adjusted to my preference.
P10 trigger just a little mushy but a smooth release, trigger mech old fashioned, K58 trigger better and the start of the cascade lever mechanism, trigger blade not changeable or movable, release sharp and a reasonable two stage setup can be achieved. K12 superb highly customisable trigger setup it will perform as you want it, super release with lightness and no mechanical clunking, when you remove the grip it is completely clear to anyone how the system works so this allows you to tune it to perfection for whatever suits you. Be aware temperature changes mechanical triggers and today I had to re adjust the sear on mine just before a competition and recheck the lift weight as suddenly the sear would not engage, and yes I do have my sears fine. Try a K12 and see if it talks to you.

Thank you, i think there are two versions of the K58's, i believe mine is a more recent version, there is adjustment of the trigger blade, it is a similar / same design as the modern Pardini rimfire trigger blade.

You are correct, interesting to see it is the same as the K12, it is a cunning trigger blade and I like it a lot as it allows you to place your finger where you like without trying to constrain it. The same reason why I like the Putter trigger.
The next change they made was to get rid of the lever for compressing and just put a PCP cylinder on the thing, if you have the instruction book you may find it shows this version. If only there was better tech cover here we would see more K12's on the firing line at competitions.

Any chance you could show a photo of the K58 without the grip on? I am curious as to whether a Rink grip for the K58 could be modified to fit a P10, which Rink do not make a grip for.

I spoke with Thomas last week, my grip is an older model, it will fit only the K10 and K58, the latest version will fit more models.
I ordered a replacement grip and apparently it will fit my K58 and also K12, K10, K2, K2s, K60

My original Rink grip is made from two pieces of wood so it looks like the rout was made and then joined together.



Hope these help, if you need anything else just ask

So i finally managed to get a K12 and first impressions are that it was worth the wait.
The standard grip is nicer looking than my Rink and actually not a bad fit at all but i had the Rink set up for me on my K58 so i swapped it over.
The trigger is everything i hoped it would be and more, my old Steyr always felt a little "vague", the K12 is more positive and gives me more feedback.
The adjustment is great, its all very intuitive to set up and a really nice touch is the trigger post has three positions so you have a stack of adjustment fore and aft.
Anyway im posting a few photographs simply because there isn't a lot of info about these online.

Lovely looking,I understand its a bigger gun than an LP10 Steyr,2.5 ounces heavier , and the grip is non adjustable but when I picked one up it pointed well
