Rear sight 0.8-1.8

Hi, I've got a brand new rear iris sight for my FWB 800. MEC twin 0.8/1.8. I'm always used the original but now, with the new one, I've the impression that nothing has really changed. I mean that by varying the iris aperture I do not perceive a real improvement on the target (10 mt). It almost seems...

Re: FWB weird noises

waiting for the original FWB grease, I've spotted two scratches on the asborber tube (see pic).
Do you think is toughness related?

Re: FWB weird noises

Yes, I agree but which parts?
I've lubricated all lever rods with no success and It's not easy 'to follow' the noise...
Maybe something inside, but I've no experience disassembling an air rifle...

FWB weird noises

Hi, in these days I'm getting a feel with my brand ne Alu 800, reason why I prefer questioning my concerns. After approximately 100 shots I've started to detect a toughness reloading the gun. This happens only after shoting a pellet, not after dry fires. I've shot a short video (https://80.17.193.51...

Re: FWB absorbing device screw

thank you for your reply.
I confirm, slotted screws were used previously. Currently, screws with hexagon socket for adjusting the absorber are installed.

FWB absorbing device screw

Hi, I'm just checking my brand new FWB 800 and I found out that there's no absorbing device screw!! (see photo) In these days I've shot about 100 pellets with no issue except for a light toughness with cocking lever. That's why I checked the absorbing device. May I have damaged the rifle? And now, s...

Re: adjustable front sight

thanks for your replies.
the distance from front sight to rear sight is 77cm and I'm not using any magnifier. I've planned to buy an iris aperture (0,8-1,8) but not now.
I'm evaluating the MEC sight, but I'm uncertain between 2.8/4.8 or 3.8/5.8 range
have you some suggestions?

Re: FWB 800 Alu rear sight adjustment

thanx for your reply Tim, but I've not understood.

- OK, 20 click per rotation. But this is the maximum rotation?

- If the diopter has not zeroed for my FWB, how can do that now?

Thank you.
