About the Hammerli FP60

The Hammerli FP60 is a single-shot .22 Long Rifle free pistol built for the ISSF 50-metre Pistol (Free Pistol) event. Successor to the popular FP10, it uses a falling-block breech and an internal hammer released by an ultra-light adjustable set trigger with an integrated dry-fire mechanism. The aluminium frame keeps weight down relative to the steel-framed Model 160 while retaining the same proven action, breech unit and orthopedic walnut match grip. A long barrel and generous sight radius, together with fully adjustable target sights, make it an exceptionally precise slow-fire competition pistol.

Hämmerli of Lenzburg, Switzerland built some of the most revered 50-metre free pistols ever made, from the Models 100 through 160; the FP10 and FP60 were the last chapter of that lineage before the classic Free Pistol discipline faded from Olympic competition.

Dry fire mechanism

The FP60 shares most internal components (trigger unit, hammer, breech and firing pin) and its grip with the steel-framed Hämmerli Model 160; the aluminium frame makes it lighter but less durable. Announced weight is about 1090 g, rising to roughly 1135 g with the muzzle compensator fitted.
