Re: Cost and Disadvantages of a PCP Rifle

The LGR is very hard to cock. The 300s is extremely easy to cock in comparison. I don't know how the 600 series compare.

Re: Walther LGR Cocking

Yes, the LGR is a beast to cock. It requires the most effort at the point where the effort is hardest to give. As Jim remarked, the effort to cock the FWB springer is negligible in comparison. It can be easily cocked while sitting on bags. Interestingly, the perceived recoil from the 300s is less th...

Yes, there are a lot of variables, with Steyr being slightly less forthcoming in their specs than in their fine video tutorials. Luckily because of its modular design it is easy to change configuration. Speaking of which, here Steyr details the exterior power adjuster mod. https://www.youtube.com/wa...

Thanks for your reply. I'm hoping the lg110 HP I'm expecting next week is set at 85 bar. The gun is used, and the seller has given me mixed signals on how its set up. He describes it as a 7.5 Joule gun but says its shooting at 12 fpe. I plan on shooting down the pressure and see where it goes off re...

Sirius:
I am still confused on the pressure settings . What is the setting for the 7.5 joule model and what is the setting for 16 joule. What should be the setting for above 16 joule? Thanks for your help.

Re: How difficult is it to increase a Steyr LG110 match to F

power? I have read some posts indicating that it is not that difficult and that, likewise, it can be converted back to match velocity. Thanks Although I do not yet have a LG100 I have been reading a lot of posts and this is what I've learned: You must have a black transfer port or drill out a silve...

The trigger carrier goes right in without complication. Just pull the pin and slip the part in. You may need to unlatch the cocking lever to override the automatic trigger interlock. Piece of cake.

Help with broken fwb 300s tigger?

Hello, I recently received an fwb 300s in the mail and the "trigger carrier" had been damaged. The trigger carrier is a plastic block with a steel lever cast in to it to which the trigger blade is mounted. I have located a trigger block spare, but I am wondering if I should attempt the swa...
