The model 6 and 10's have the GISS system Joe. If you look the the top tube just in front of the rear sight you will see a round button type structure sticking out - this is part of the GISS mechanism. If it doesnt have this it is a recoiling model
The spring target rifles have it too - models 60/65/75 etc
Wouldnt mind one of these myself....

I have a Model 5, which is identical to Ian's first Model 6 picture, but not a GISS, so always look for the button.
Basically, you have two pistons, one travelling in each direction, but one being a dummy.
This is how it counters the recoil.

Re: model 6
well after a lot of searching I have done just that and here it iszunmik wrote:Superb pistols i still shoot them a lot if you go for the '6' try to get one with the wood grips & adjustable palm shelf, M. :)
just involved a trip to Manchester to make sure it was as described
[
This one was resealed and serviced a couple of weeks ago by Dave Mercer and a quick check over the chrono was showing 420-430 fps but its still dieseling at the moment
It even makes a rubbish shot like me look like half good
that was 15 shots. I should have given up after 10 because 2 of the wide one were in the last 5 when my hand started to shake with the pressure of trying to keep them in the black
Just need to tweak the sights now when I get time

Re: Giss original models
Very good indeed.
You fps is about right, and any dieseling will stop after a tin of so.
Trigger is hard to adjust, being one adjuster inside another.
This is the perfect pistol for the MPL.

Re: Giss original models
We do allow catch up to take into consideration late joiners, holidays, etc.
A Round can be done in under 20 mins, so it doesn't take too long really.

Re: Giss original models
Good to have you aboard.
It is a good experience to shoot a competition with "official targets", and is surprising how much your scores drop from a practice target to an official one!
