High Standard, Norinco & Stoeger Pistols

Post by oldironsights » Sat Jan 23, 2010 2:23 pm

Another purrfect day in the south! :bigsmile:
Solid blue Sk.Y. 75F degrees(a bit warm), & I am off on Friday nights! :mrgreen:
So, without any sleep, I headed to the range to shoot some pistols & rifles.
Just across the road from our private range is a truck stop with the best Friday buffet that will ever grace an array of taste buds.
Great catfish, turnip greens, cornbread, Red beans & Rice, potato salad, fried okra, corn on the cob, hush puppies, all washed down with sweet, iced tea! :loco:
I left no room for desert.
Then, back to the range!

Looks like I ate so much, I couldn't shoot straight! :oops:

Hey sweet! always eyed those Stoeger Lugers.

If it's anything like a Walther P38/P1 you may have to fool with loads and your sight to hit right,my P1 shoots a bit low with 115gr shells,about dead on with 124gr
Don't ask what happens with 147gr,it's a joke :loco:

Well, that gives me hope. I have a P1 that shoots 115 fmj about 6 to 8 inches low at 10 yards. I noticed the front sight blade was numbered so I tried to see if other height blades were available. No luck at Numrich's online catalogue, and the Walther website was no help either. I just hate having to take a file to that front sight.
There is nothing so exhilarating as to be shot at without result.
