Dear Major, That's fantastic. Didn't know such guns existed in our market. Can you share the brand and picture if possible and also the cost ? Seems a helpful tool. That way I can check out at Crawford Market when I visit it next. Thanks in advance. BTW, please address me as "AGN" only. :-)

hey major nice progress bhai. i too never knew of this dummy concept. life is a continuous learning.
hey tir
did the 9 ring drill today with box drill for 40 shots and as per you advice had to kick myself 6 times. but i guess i am restabilising. hope to keep improving. i am enjoying the shot calling and it is getting relatively better. some light at the end of the tunnel

Hi agn,

The dummy is not of any brand and I guess it is made by some friend of my coach at Moradabad. I got it for Rs 3200 from my coach itself. Attached with this post is a pic of that dummy.

Hi jitu,

I got this dummy only because I don't have any pistol as of now and will take another 2-3 months. But I feel, I will use it even after I get my lp 10 because as it's a bit heavy, and after on week when I lifted the pardini at my club, I felt like I was lifting a feather..so may be it could be of some help.

regards,
major

Hope you understand me. I want good news from you.
