    Starting Pistol

    Any one know where I can get a 6mm /22 blank firing starting pistol for dog training . The ones that use the paper caps are no good as the cap factory blew up and none will be available for a while .
    Get as close as you can then six feet closer

    Starting Pistol

    How did it blow up druid???

    No wait, i can imagine if my workers have taught me anything.

    Its smoko, one has a hammer and some caps in his pocket, the other two bet him he cant pop 1000 in 60 seconds, they sweep a few piles together, watches out, hammer raised and GO

    I think Drahthaar on here had a couple for sale a while back? Otherwise, I have just bought mine on TradeMe second hand. They do come up from time to time, so just have to watch for them. $75-$100 generally.

    I used the twelve with primers only
    Real guns start with the number 3 or bigger and make two holes, one in and one out

    The 6mm blanks aren't a problem as Target products have them . I have a 22 adaptor (rifled) for my 12 ga but I need a pistol for training in sight of a road and on a river bank ,where waving a gun about may cause one to be "Glocked" by the boys in black
    A mate just got one off TM , it has a part on the mag ,that holds the mag in missing but it still works , I'd rather get an EMGE or some such that one can get spare mags for it

    I got mine from GunCity, wasn;t expensive. Love it for just the reasons you say Druid... Can carry in non firearm friendly environs and use it and have it back in the pocket before anyone gets upset.... like here on a public walkway (lousy with pheasants) at Athenree...
