Light vs Heavy Pistol - Help Plse
Hi all.
Got back into 10M shooting for about a year & am making steady but slow progress with the rifle,
Just been getting nowhere with the pistol though.
I cant blame the kit (Steyr LP10).
I'm not overly fit at present (due to series of chest problems meaning its a struggle to get out running as I used to) and I'm having to get used to having what some people may call "a low centre of gravity".
I still class myself as reasonably strong, however.
The problem I'm having is once I've fired half a dozen shots (usually reasonably proficiently) I'm shaking like mad & into the 6, 5 & 4 rings.
I've tried numerous changes to the grip & angle, stance, relaxed grip, exercising (even!) etc - but nothing seems to have helped.
I've been close to giving up, but almost in a fit of desperation tonight, I tried a couple of the club guns, an LP2 & an an LP2 compact.
The LP2 was better - but the compact was like a breath of fresh air - I can hold it relatively still!
I obviously want to make sure this isn't a fluke but am wondering if anyone else has had any similar experiences, or if I'm alone in being a 14 stone weakling & needing a lighter gun?
Cheers,
Drew
