Overview

The Morini CM 84E is a single-shot .22 LR free pistol built for the 50-metre ISSF precision event. It uses a Martini-style falling-block action and a fully electronic trigger mounted on micro-roller bearings, with pull weight adjustable from a few grams upward. Paired with a Lothar Walther match barrel, an anatomically adjustable orthopedic grip and a micrometer rear sight, it is regarded as one of the benchmark precision handguns in Olympic-style free pistol shooting.
