Thanks for the information. I can't believe my luck but yesterday after talking with some other folks and reading more information i thought i would check the buy/sell/trade board. I was able to find exactly what my daughter was looking for with some nice added bonuses!

Unfortunately we live on a small island in Alaska that isolates us from most things. I have no doubt about the quality of the FWB 700. And am glad to hear that your daughter shoots the same rifle. We will be making our final decision on Tuesday and then will place our order. Thanks for the reply Chi...

FWB 700 Alum for a big junior shooter?
My 13 yo daughter has been shooting NRA 3p junior rifle sporter class for two seasons now. She is one sign off away from advancing to distinguished expert and is interested in shooting 3p precision air rifle. My daughter is only 13 but she is already 5' 11", 120 pounds and really appears to be ...

A hand pump will work out fine for you
I have been using a hand pump for the last 8 years. The process of pumping does require some effort, but it is nothing to be afraid of. The small cylinders of the LP10 require a lot less effort than the larger tanks found on rifles. In theory you will only be required to fill the tanks from empty on...

Some suggestions
I really miss being able to log onto pilkguns and see the used guns section. I find it very hard to locate used guns posted by our host. Maybe add a sticky that can be used exclusively for used guns posted by pilkguns. I love the forum and have not found another forum that caters exclusively to prec...

Price and suppliers?
I was wondering on the US price and any suppliers that are carrying this pistol? Also any review yet? On a different note, when are Steyr and Morini going to WOW us with something new? In the next couple of months i'm going to be purchasing my first precision pistol. I've always had precision rifles...

I beleive a program like that existed at one time!
I recall reading a post from Pilkington himself where he talked about such a program, but i believe he was burned from a prospective buyer. The particular buyer flamed Scott and said that he was selling used pistols as new pistols. The post was from a couple of years ago. Don't know if that situatio...

Good Question, but i think i have a fix
Very good question about the different grip sizes in relation to size of hands. My oldest daughter is 8 and has been shooting .22 since she was 3. We started out with her sitting on my lap and i supported the "chipmunk" rifle for her. This allowed her to focus on the sights and trigger squ...

Benelli Kite...
I was looking into the Kite after i saw them on Larrys Guns, but the price has gone up since he first put them on his site and now there isn't a real difference betweent he kite and steyr. I believe the new price is right around $1200 or so. I can't remember for sure, but it's significantly more tha...

Just as i figured! :)
I figured the price was too good to be true. I have been floundering between the Steyr LP-10 and the Anschutz LP@ for some time. Then just by chance i saw an ad for the Aeron pistols. They looked like they had some promise with adjustable grips like the LP-10. But i kinda figured that half the price...

Quality of Aeron ACZ-101?
I have recently set up a single lane home 10M range in my basement so that my family can shoot during the cold and windy winter months in Alaska. I have been looking @ various air pistols for quite some time now. The Steyr LP10, Anschutz LP@, Morini 162 EI, and most recently i have been looking at t...
