    Steel cased ammo question.....

    Steel case is OK. Just beware when it is cheaply polymer coated.. Lacquer coated is OK, I shoot that for 30 years.

    Looking to buy my 1st Polymer 9MM handgun

    Have a look to the Caracal, looks like the latest batch delivered to US distributor is reliable. Curious to know wich rotating barrel pistols you had since there were not a lot, the French made MAB P15 and the old Roth Steyr. The Steyr TMP can not really be considered a pistol.

    How fast are your repeat hits?

    My best time ever recorded was in IPSC, 2.99 seconds from the draw with 6 hits, all"A" between 6 (start plate) and 45 yards (stop plate). I had been slow in drawing, around one second before first hit, 0.20 between hits and a slower time for hits at 25 and 45 yards. Double action with my S&W...

    Caracal pistols. BEWARE!

    on 1911 type pistols, it is fairly easy to send the brass exactly where you want it. Buy an oversized ejector and tune it by filing it, you can get the angle of ejection you wish. I used my experience on 1911 to partially solve the problem on the Caracal pistol I tuned. Plus some work on the...

    Caracal pistols. BEWARE!

    This glass is a Rodenstock specially tempered glass. Costs an arm and a leg (300 $ + each) but they are really light and resistant, scratch proof and have received a special treatment that makes spending time on screens very comfortable. I had lost the habit to receive brass on the forehead..

    Caracal pistols. BEWARE!

    You better use eye protection. I heard this morning of a shooter who had a case flying straight to the eye like it happened to me. He was fortunately wearing protective goggles. That came after I have had two calls from people who have tested the pistols they just received and experienced the...

    Caracal pistol

    I have done more testing with a F and Geco, Sellier & Bellot and reloaded ammunition, 115, 124 and 147 grains. The trigger is way better than it was right out of the box. I only had one failure to lock slide with empty magazine. I still have the cases hitting me in the head 5 times for 300...

    Caracal pistol. From the hot sands of Middle East

    Not exactly. Caracal bought Merkel and Heckler und Koch hunting firearms division. Merkel and Steyr were imported and distributed in USA by GSI, Trussville, AL, AFAIK.

    Caracal demonstration in Paris/Rome

    Some persistant recent rumours say it may be produced in Europe as well, soon. Just rumours but the insufficient production capacity may need a solution quickly if US (and or Eurpean) market absorbs a lot of these pistols. "Caracal aus den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten tritt hier übrigens...
