A recent pickup - I’m a fan of Feinwerkbau Airguns and vintage match gear in general.
This one was an Olympic grade pistol in its day, with FWB’s famed quality and accuracy with bulk fill Co2 in nice blued steel tanks. It’s a double up I have but this one has its polystyrene box with all the correct pieces including weights which screw into the end of the tank for balance. Interestingly this came with a manual for FWB 65/80 spring pistols which were the predecessor of this co2 pistol, which I assumed was just there because it was the same brand but seems it was included from the factory as the serial number matches! |

They are a simple pistol, but effective... They predate the PCP pistols so innovative for their time - moving on from spring pistols and SSP. Crisp trigger, good sights, accurate barrel, loud co2 pop - good fun

Thats the manual, has some great diagrams of the 65/80 spring pistols and yes on the front is the test / proof target before it leaves the factory - assume the action goes in a vise and fires a could of shots

Is it early enough maybe, that it came off the factory line and they didn't have the co2 Manuel's printed up yet?
Been looking at it online,it's a really nice pistol. |
