    I can see this is going to cost me.

    What have you got for sale?

    That's what I like to hear - positive thinking - let's keep those negative thought waves at bay.

    I did like the co2 I tried only thing that puts me off is the filling it up, I'm all set for pcp with a tank & I like my springer's. Not sure I need another system to mess with but will definitely give the comp a go with a loaner

    Good point TC2. I hadn't thought of that.
    What CO2 target pistols run off those silly little cartridges?

    Still on with the theme of Classic Pistols like those used in the 'MPL' and the proposed 'Carbon Classic' - couldn't we have a 'Webley Classic' section? Scoring would be easy. First to hit the black would be the winner!!!!!

    I remember telling Bob earlier in the year that I had no interest in Pistols, I have now got four. I won't be getting a co2 one.

    Try telling 'Mr Wilson' that
    He will have you fixed up with one of his old rejects within months (plus postage ) and you could have a hamster dangling from the fore end in hours.

    Thats the style - spoken like a true devotee - confirm you won't be getting a CO2 "one" and go for four of them straight off!

    There are some very good Classic single shot match pistols that run on those "silly little cartridges" including the Hammerli Master, TAU 7, Alfa Prod.

    As a mater of interest, I bought a new CO2 bottle in 2011 and although I have used it a hell of a lot it still has some gas in it and it is still on it's original fill.

    A large CO2 cylinder really does last for ages, but the dissapointing thing is that I have been told it will cost me £3 to have it refilled !

    A bulk fill CO2 bottle could easilly be shared amongst a small group of shooters making a cheap solution to re-filling - get one with a "diptube" and it will not need to be inverted to fill the pistol.

    If that route was chosen, there are some superb CO2 match pistols out there that includes the Feinwerkbau Model 2, C10 and C20, Walther CP1, CP2, CP3, CPM1, CPM, CP200, CP201.

    I will leave it to other's to seek-out more good examples of CO2 match pistols but those shown already give a good choice of models that are available on the s/h market at very realistic prices.
