Interesting thread.
I didn't realise there were FWB clones.
That said, I am surprised there haven't been more.
Kind regards,
Phil

Chinese FWB copies
For a time,in the 1980's Auckland was awash with these dungers.Made from soft imperfectly machined metal,these pistols seized up during the cocking manoevere,had sloppy recoil mechanisms,horrible rough orange grips and were generally unpleasant to shoot(or try to).Their piston heads came adrift rendering them utterly inoperable.I recall seeing a crate of them go for sixty bucks at a local gun shop.Personally I never paid more than $27 for one!(and regretted it!)Definitely NOT a classic.
