The UK's Finest Independent Forum for Shooters and Gun Owners. Est 2010.

In Slovenia a couple of weeks back and was lucky enough to shoot a new Sig Sauer 226 clone with improved features the Arex Rex Zero 1. Not an expert as started shooting after the pistol ban but have shot a few different pistols over the years.

All l can say is what a great gun to shoot very accurate even in my amateur hands. Shot a mixture of static and practical type shooting. Normally shoot a Glock in neighbouring Austria from time to time but would much rather shoot the Arex.

Have a look at the Military Arms Channel on youtube. They do a couple of excellent reviews and torture tests. As good as a real Sig for half the cost. Pretty acedemic to most of us in the U.K. now.

But then with some of the stuff coming out of Eastern Europe and Turkey now, there's really not that many handguns out there that are real rubbish. But, striker fired, polymer framed is certainly the fashion.

Sod the pistol - tell us more how you found shooting in Slovenia !!!
Dying to go there

Plus one or two actually aren't their gun laws different to Czech in a bad way ?

If you are interested I will check with the guys over there if they can do for you as mine was a cheeky "ask" via an email that came up trumps. The range was not far from the capital Ljubljana and I got to shoot a very short barreled AK (read flame thrower), short barrel VZ58, VZ61 Skorpion in a pistol caliber but not 9mm may haven been 32ACP (?), AR15 and of course the REX Zero 1 (all the above in semi-auto). Like I say an afternoon spent shooting half static and then practical including in low light with mounted flashlight. All very safe as these guys have a good reputation and they became confident with me as they saw me shoot (they were impressed with my stood unsupported accuracy, thank god for gallery rifle so I didn't embarrass us Brits).
