Not anywhere as good with a pistol as i was, 2 handed i'm still not bad, but a left master shoulder injury has taken its toll on single handed shooting i'm afraid, good news is Mrs RTD wants to have a try, if she likes it i will pay her subs as well.
Don't want to encourage her leaving the kitchen to often though.....
My pistol shooting is pretty hopeless these days too (similar reasons with damaged neck/shoulder/back etc) but I may still have a go this season - just to get some use our of my old pistols.
If you put the pellet trap in the kitchen you could get Mrs RTD to shoot her targets in there !

Targets arrived yesterday, sadly though, i have damaged my left front deltoid, so can't hold a rifle at the moment, so no shooting for me !
Many thanks, yep self employed so no work no money
Hi,
Not good i'm afraid, i was hoping that after a month i would be at least 50% better but sadly not, shooting hurts, holding the rifle hurts, tried to work, but that cripples me with pain,
The joys of working for yourself !
Picked up a used 177 99 while iv'e been off, which i'd hoped to mod the same as my other one ie Williams sight etc, so i could shoot it at 10m, with the first one being zero'd in it 6yds. Iv'e reduced the spring & its running at 8ftlb at the moment, i just need to shoot it in to see where it settles at, but can't manage more that 5 shots.

We have some more recent interest from BBS members who would like to enter the MPL postal competition for the first time and have asked to see some more details about the competition and how to enter, so I am elevating this thread to help explain everything as it also shows how to enter.

tcas146 - welcome to the MPL pistol competition Paul
Any excuse to shoot classic airguns is a good idea, and the MPL competition is probably one of the better ones.
Like you, I have have recently had a Model 6 re-sealed with new springs fitted, so I will also be shooting a Model 6 in this competition but mine is one of the previous types with the moulded plastic grip - an early grey coloured example that came with the early type rear sights too!
Good luck with your Model 6M !

Good shooting !
