Interesting that it appears to be a right handed grip on the pistol, but the glasses are for someone left eye dominant.
That's a much easier compensation with a pistol than with a rifle.

I consider the Walther LP3M to be the finest production Co2 pistol ever; be 'finest' measured in quality, performance, or aesthetics. Nevertheless, true to my well-documented pathological compulsion to soup-up any projectile-launcher employing compressed air or gas as propellent, upon diving into the gorgeous thing I found it just as beautifully SIMPLE to install a stiffer hammer-spring and lighter trigger springs to increase power to almost 6 foot pounds and reduce trigger let-off to my ideal 2 ounce first stage followed by a 4 ounce (total) trigger-break. Five shots at 25 yards measured 1/2" center-to-center-
Purchased pre-owned from the Netherlands some years ago, I painstakingly removed all body-putty from the grip and refinished it to expose the lovely walnut beneath. It came to me in this custom locking case (more lovely wood)-

My Steyr LP50 HP is a tack driver at up to 25 yards and respectable groups can be had at 50 yards.

Took another look and you're right. I mistook the smooth area for the trigger finger as a thumb shelf.
Still a gorgeous piece of kit!

I have gathered a few 10m target pistols over the years, and these are the two I use when I'm serious about accuracy and collecting points.
Feinwerkabu P8X and Steyr EVO 10E.
And these are the two I use when I'm not that serious about accuracy and have less time to collect the points.
Feinwerkbau P58 Compact and Steyr LP50 Compact.

Wow, some sweet ones here. But only 21 replies? But I do covet a few of these. ... OK, all of them are coveted except the Diana 6M or 10. Be Well my Pistoleros, 'dito.

Ya want more? Heck, we got more, ha.
Two more examples of the uber-classic FWB 65. Left: short-barrel Junior with sport grips. Right: full-length version with match grips and barrel sleeve weight. Note minor differences in the grip tang and both sights; the shorty is several years newer.

I can't say there's a favorite. However, the red dot & new grip did greatly improve the Baikal.
