On first test shot, the pellet did not leave the barrel. So here it is, a guide based on my very recent experience with a virtually new It was clear the rifle had had very little use. A little time ago someone asked on the BBS for advice on stripping one of these sought after classics. The removed length was mm a new spring may measure c. Since they never really took off there aren't that many around.With thanks to Ian for the first set of pics and Rod for the trigger strip down on the yellow forum. The question is the extra cost worth it over an HW or AA? They still aren't cheap but have come down in price quite a bit. I still think they are a very fine rifle.


It just couldn't live up to the hype and the crazy high price tag. Mortar bomb imagesĪt the end of the day all the hype was a let down. For the most part people who spent the big bucks didn't say much. Then the rifle came out and it was crickets. Unfourtunately there was so much hype, not from FWB but from the public, anticipating the greatest spring rifle ever made. You mention your club? Would that be field target by chance? Does it seem to have a consistent and predictable POI or does it like to shift with temperature and air density changes like some springers do? Did you have it tuned, do it yourself, or just shooting it as received? That is exactly the kind of information I am looking for. Beautifully built but needs to be de-tuned to say, a power-level. There was a brief buzz about them when they first came out and a few reviews with mixed results. Looking forward to getting the HW.ĪOA has a good deal on them now. Just bought a HW30 which I think would be similar. I've researched a little but about all I can find is Gaylord's 8 part review and a guy on the GTA forum that bought one when they were first released about four? I had one years ago like 20 nice gun. The newer version of the FWB Sport has caught my eye I guess the older also went by the "sport" designation.
