Notes: This is a single shot match, target and hunting pistol made to exacting standards. The Hammerli 150 features Martini action, a set trigger, adjustable primary trigger and sights, and optional electronic ignition. The Hammerli 150 normally comes in a set with a weapon, tools, cleaning supplies, and a padded carrying case. It is a highly accurate weapon.

Notes: The Hammerli 160 is the replacement for the older Hammerli 150, introduced in 1992. The weapon has an entirely free barrel, and at no point except the chamber does it touch the rest of the pistol. The trigger is adjustable in just about any way you could think of, i.e., pull, angle, distance from the frame, etc. The Hammerli 160, has an unusual anatomical grip with an adjustable hand stop, and a high tailpiece that carries the micrometer adjustable sight. This allows for a long sight radius. Underneath the barrel is a hollow pawl that holds compartments for weights.

A variant, the Hammerli 160E, uses electronic ignition for the rounds. The batteries are contained in part of the pawl mentioned above. It is otherwise the same as the identical to the Hammerli 160 for game purposes.

Notes: This is a sports pistol that is similar to many built for IPSC competition. The Model 208S has a steel frame and slide and carved anatomical wooden grips with an adjustable hand rest. It has a squared trigger guard. The front sight and rear micrometer adjustable sight can be interchanged with other compatible sights. The trigger is adjustable for pull and stop. A barrel weight of various sizes can be attached to the bottom of the barrel.

There are several other version of this pistol, most of which are identical for game purposes. The Hammerli 208 International is an older model that does not have an adjustable hand rest and has a rounded trigger guard. The Model 215 is a basically less luxurious version, using lower-grade woods and a cheaper finish (though the mechanism is identical), and is has a round trigger guard. The Hammerli 215S is the same weapon with a square trigger guard, no adjustable hand rest, and a flared grip.

Notes: This is another sort of match pistol, designed for a different competition. The magazine is in front of the trigger, and the pistol’s frame and grip are made of synthetics (though the grip looks like wood. The Hammerli 280 comes in .22 Long Rifle and .32 Smith & Wesson Long versions, with a conversion kit available to convert between the two calibers. The barrel comes with weights to adjust the balance, and the trigger is adjustable for pull. The Hammerli 280 was introduced in 1987, but in 1992, changes were made in the design to make the weapon easier to disassemble.

Notes: This match pistol, introduced in 1998 to replace the Hammerli 280, is available in a variety of finishes, from simple blueing to stainless steel to a variety of colors and weird patterns in different colors. The grip, due to its synthetic nature, can be ordered in sizes ranging from Narrow to XXL. The SP20 has an adjustable recoil buffer version that allows the user to adjust the recoil to suit his needs. The SP20 has a bolt housing so that the rear sight does not move during the slide stroke. The rear sight is an adjustable micrometer sight, and both the front sight and rear sight may be replaced with other designs (though they are not prepared for telescopic sights). The trigger is adjustable for pull.

Twilight 2000 Notes: This weapon does not exist.

Notes: This pistol was designed for one purpose: making perfect little holes in static targets. It is a competition pistol based on SiG’s P-210, reworked for the levels of accuracy demanded by European target competitions. The Model 240 is not intended for plinking (beneath its station), varminting (ditto), or combat shooting (not rugged enough). Part of the secret of its accuracy is that the Model 240 is tweaked to fire only one specific sort of ammunition: the .38 Special Wadcutter round. You can fire other sorts of .38 Special ammunition from it, but you will eventually turn it into just another ordinary-accuracy pistol, and a rather fragile one at that.
