Re: Feinwerkbau 80 target air pistol
On stripping it completely it became obvious that all they had done was to change the breech seal which was a blue coloured seal, all the other seals were the original white seals. The breech seal can be replaced without stripping the pistol completely as it can be changed when the breech is open. Y...

On striping the pistol, the slides on the recoilless system were stuck so the system couldn't have worked, this had to be freed up before the pistol could be str...

Re: Feinwerkbau 80 target air pistol
Can't sell this FWB 80. I took it to the club to give it a real test, after quite a few shots the anti-bear trap stopped the cocking arm being returned to shooting position, I suspect that the sear is sticking and failing to hold the piston in the cocked position causing the anti-bear trap system to...
