Questions about grip on my new benelli kite
Posted: Fri Sep 09, 2005 9:23 pm
I just got it today. I ordered a small grip, it seems to fit well, fingers are slightly longer then the stippled area though.
The problem is, the gun has a lot of rake. My coach mentioned it has a "european grip" where the wrist is "broken" due to the rake.
His fwb 90, 65, and izh 46m all have straighter grips so that you dont have to "break wrist" to line up the sights.
In my natural wrist alignment, the front sight appears to be about 1 cm higher then the rear. To level them, I need to point the pistol down.
I've noticed that in some airpistol pictures, some people also shoot with a "broken wrist"
Here is an example http://www.targetshooting.ca/graphics/P ... pistol.jpg
Is this how most modern airpistols are? Shooting with a bent wrist seems strange at first, but Nothing you cant get used to.
