Hammerli Master

[zooma]

I showed the Hammerli Master Match to Phil at the club last night - he even picked it up and dry fired it - I could tell he was impressed.

I put a new CO2 cylinder in it so Phil could have a go later in the evening, but we had some match cards to get shot last night down in the 10 metre range and Phil was upstairs on the 6 yard range, so we kind of missed the opportunity.

I had a quick go with it - but at a time when I had a dose of the shakes - later when I had settled down we had some match cards to shoot and I had already elected to work with my LP10E as I am still trying to make this excellent pistol work for me - but when I shot the Master on Tuesday it was very very impressive!

Is the Match a different model to the Master, or is that its full name?

I have 2 of the Masters at the moment, and really ought to move one on, but I can't decide which one to keep as they are both in very good condition and both shoot extremely well.
One is destined to be kept for ever - I just can't make up my mind

The "Match" version of the Master only identifies it as having the full anatomical grip.

I did savour the moment of handling one for the first time, and sorry to have missed the opportunity to have a go; though I am sure there will be other opportunities in the future.

I am pleased to say that it loved up to my expectations. The grip was very comfortable, and the pistol balanced nicely. The trigger was also surprisingly good, with a nice first stage.

My top spot for number one best air pistol of all time is still tied between this and the Original Model 10.

The Target grips certainly make a difference to the lines of the gun.

Will done to Bob for obtaining such guns and allowing other shooters the experience of handling and firing them.

Kind regards,



Phil

Aaah.

I've been shooting these 2 Masters all afternoon and I cannot decide which one I prefer. One has a slightly lighter trigger than the other, but both perform pretty much the same once I get used to the trigger difference.

Perhaps I shall just have to keep both

I have decided to remind Bob to bring this gun back down to the club so I can have a go. CO2 chrecteristics are totally different to air and I am trying to work out if there really is any difference between PCP and CO2. I don't think there is in all practicality, I think it is just a perception thing.
