In recent years all of us have become used to see modular systems applied to various kind of firearms, allowing different calibers to be used on one same basic platform.

The World known Italian manufacturer Pardini Armi, very popular among all those shooters practicing Olympic shooting disciplines, has adapted his basic pistol platform to meet this same modular concept.

The advantages of the new SP-HP system are numerous: same grip, same trigger settings, interchangeability of the parts, versatility of the events that can be shot, compact carry size, lower cost for system optimization and economy. Most of the older Pardini generation barrels and bolts in .22 LR are also compatible and can be used on the new frame.

This change allows the user to purchase only one Pardini pistol and - if he or she wants to compete in all disciplines - two conversions at a cost that is significantly lower than that of three pistols purchase. New engravings on both side of the frame actualize the pistol design to contemporary aesthetic standards.

The conversion kits are sold individually in a special case and include a bolt, barrel-counterweight assembly, recoil spring with guiding rod, and 2 magazines for the caliber of choice. The conversion is a very simple operation that requires only one screw to be released. It can be done by the athlete at the firing line for less than 60 seconds.

The following kits are available:

• SP Rimfire (useable for Standard and Sport Pistol)
• SP Rapid Fire (Men Rapid Fire Pistol)
• HP Center Fire (Center Fire piostol, available in .32 S&W)

For the USA market two additional kits are available:

• SP Bullseye - Caliber .22 LR
• HP Bullseye - Caliber .32 ACP
