    Thanks for checking Graeme, that is close, but not quite close enough!

    I got all excited for a moment when I saw your post. Mine has evidence of stickers on the butt too so was obviously used competitively.

    I think that anyone that can shoot an original HW70 competitively has been practicing a lot - and probably has a lot of determination.

    My best efforts with this slippery little front heavy air pistol can be seen in the January 2022 6yd MPL Air Pistol results!

    Mine has a superb trigger and shoots beautifully, but I would not rate it as an ideal choice for myself to use as a competitive target pistol.
