imschur Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 I decided to spend Friday lunch hour plinking with my old pellet pistol. It's a very fine pistol ans competitively accurate. I took a 20oz coke bottle and threw is far as I could in to the woods. It went suprisingly far and managed to roll down a slight grade for a few extra feet. I loaded the gun took the first shot and nailed the bottle. I was pleasantly surprised having not shot a handgun since last fall and having not shot the RWS in over 15 years. Repeated the process a few more times hitting the bottle every time. I decided to move the bottle back another 10 feet and stick the neck in a hole in a dead tree. I walked back and proceded to shoot again. First shot I miss and hear the pellet smack a tree in the woods. I shoot again and miss, and again, and again, and again wtf. Then it occurs to me im not hearing the pellet hit anything. Sure enough a pellet never made it out of the barrel and a managed to stack a few more behind it. :-[ So now i need to address that. The gun NEVER did anything like this before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imschur Posted May 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 well if thats the case Im not taking it apart. Lats time I adjusted the trigger it had to go back to RWS. I wonder if these guys are still in the business.BTW the damn seal swore he could be trusted not to talk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhouse Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 My father-in-law gave me an old Heinle (sp?) And we had a pellet get stuck in the barrel. We tore it down and it was a bitch to dislodge but we got it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted May 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 My concern is the cause as Microgunner pointed out. I just checked RWS is now Umarex. Theres nothing even closely resembling my pistol on the site. Mine is also the "Match" model. Theres not a picture on the web. They must have sold two of them ;D It's the 6G Match, Left Handed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
