mark williams 7,558 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Lovely sunny day for a classic photo I think. "The deadly FWB Sisters" TO the rear is the 1978 FWB Sport 127 (.22) mk1, topped with a period Tasco 4x40 w/a. She is running at a very consistent 11.6 ft/lbs and stunningly accurate with Falcon Accuracy Plus. To the front is the 1979 FWB Sport 124 ( .177) mk 1, topped with Tom B`s old Bushmaster 4x38 w/a. She is running at a very consistent 11.4 ft/lbs, also stunningly accurate with the JSB Exact Express. atb Mark. 4 1 Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,587 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Never before or since I have ever seen a beautiful pair of this legendary Feinwerkbau Sport air rifle before. It's either a .22 or .177 that crops up, that someone has. But never the two side by side. Fabulous. You should be really proud of these two fantastic German beauties Mark. 1 1 Quote Link to post
Rimfireboy! 1,463 Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 I always wanted one back in the late seventies and in the early eighties I very nearly bought one from Chris Draper, but Chris actually talked me out of it, saying “well they’re good, but they’re nothing new are they?” I think he was hoping to swing me towards one of those new fangled pre charged thingies that were starting to appear. I wasn’t going for that though, what with a divers bottle being needed as well. Seemed like too much hassle at the time to me. 1 Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Feinwerkbau have always made extraordinary rifles and still do, some of their range today are quite incredible. Quote Link to post

mole trapper 1,693 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Beautiful rifles, I have three, all in 177, just can't seem to find a .22 Quote Link to post
LuckOrJudgement 437 Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 I had a look at the feinwerkbau.de website. The current Sport Model is a very striking looking gun. It's listed as coming in 7.5 and 18 joules format which puts it just above UK legal limit. Has anyone here had a go of one? Quote Link to post
