New Pistols In Use

Since the formation of the Nelson Pistol Club members have had to use the Crossman-type pistol, a variation of the air pistol, as a target weapon. Recently, however, the club was given a permit to buy the proper target pistols and these are now being used on an open-air range. These pistols, of 22 calibre, are far more accurate.
