24" and less, a place to discuss all things handgun related, section 7.3. Long barrelled revolvers, long barrelled pistols and section 5. Overseas contributions are more than welcome.
I've just bought a GSG in mint s/h condition for a cracking price. Just contemplating what mods to do with the money I've saved . The Performance Enhancement System for £50 ish from AW seems a bargain plus the stainless rod thingy. Then hopefully a red dot on the slide, probably a Shield or are there any chinky-cheapo's worth buying I wonder.
My other purchase on this pistol theme is a Westlake Alfa .357. Now if you really want to talk about shooting pistols in 'the old way' forget your filthy black powder/pyrodex malarky. With two extra cylinders I can get off 18 rounds of slick double action accuracy in under half a minute and no hours of cleaning black grunge to look forward to. Joy.

The PES and guide rod are very beneficial, can recommend their addition. As to sights, avoid EvilBay chinky copies like the plague. You get what you pay for. Buy a Shield and you'll only have to buy once..! They're used by all the top UK Practical Pistol shooters for a reason.

Daryll.
Great I just bought one of these today along with my other purchases I'm broke. Just looked at that website and there's loads of stuff I didn't know about that I now need.

Sounds like you'd do better with an adjustable rearsight... one of the first things i did with mine was added a novak adjustable rear sight.
Didn't improve accuracy, but at least the spead pattern was central
