I have a Very nice 603 listed for sale, i have been out of the market for several years, i have seen FWB rifles/pistols get bid to very high prices on ebay....i do not care to list on ebay currently. Anyone care to share some current 603 market trends? I have a very late model 603 with the upgraded ...

I recently picked up a Daisy 722, years ago I shot some decent scores with a Daisy 747. I was wondering if anyone had done pellet testing with there 722? I am trying to wring out max accuracy, and like clean cut holes. I did a search and in .22 cal found RWS hobby, Meisterkugeln, and JSP match all i...

Sorry!…... double post

Ok!...thank you!....I am just sure my brown handled 717 was brass inside the Piston tube, but that was more than 25 years ago, I could be forgetful on my blood pressure meds. I guess it does not matter, brass would be corrosion resistant but a little more easy to damage so I am not sure what materia...

I read a Review online where the reviewer compared a 777 to a 747, the 777 was a heavier pistol. This makes perfect sense with the solid wood grips and steel rear sight however said reviewer thought that after Daisy dropped the 777 they also changed the Piston tube from brass to steel on the remaini...

Thanks!, I will check MSU out. -Ben

Hello, I am Not a competitive match shooter, however I have owned some Feinwerkbau match air rifles and Really like the clear front sight insert. I am a machinist and make my own on a lathe with different size holes to allow experiments with amount of white I see around the black...as these are so e...

I would like to shoot in a league or club, my prefered type shooting would be 10 meter air pistol also 10 meter air rifle. Bench Rest air rifle would also be of interest as well as metallic silouette. If anyone knows of clubs hopefully less than 1.5 hours drive from Grand Rapids Michigan, please con...

Jim, I am a Tool maker/hobbyist gunsmith. I was thinking of ordering the parts for a 603 dampener system and trying to fit them to a 601.
I have since found a Mint 603 so I am abandon this idea, thank you for replying to my thread. -Ben

So, I have a question, it seems the early models have a safety in the grip....if that is not present, did the safety move to the trigger guard? Or other location, or get removed all together?.... It's not totally out of question for a Target pistol not to have a safety....

Well... there you have it, this thread is useful all ready. Many thanks to those who have contributed! I hope there is more to come. My brother and I are Toolmakers of long standing, there is nearly nothing we could not make or replicate in metal. Take for instance, the aluminum trigger could be mac...

Would it be better to move this post to Olympic pistol? Since making the post I did a search for Hammerli 280 here and got 60 some hits....over there around 220 hits...is Olympic pistol just a more active area? -Ben

Thanks Joel, I am not ready to purchase yet until I feel reasonably well educated about the pistols. - Ben

Hello, I have admired the Hammerli 280 for years, I have recently seriously considering purchasing one. I have always admired accurate 22 rimefire, my useage for the pistol would be honing my pistol skills, and Small game hunting! So with that being said, they don't come at low cost, I find little o...

Hello, I am searching for a RH Feinwerkbau 603 full size, lots of 600 to 601 have turned up at value price, which leads me to wonder the cost and difficulty to ad the system to an older model. I am a Tool and Die maker so self machining is readily available, but I would just like to get a feel for h...

I went back and looked at the eBay ad, the pictures showed this target, if they indeed cut as clean a hole as picture shows I'm in! I added 3 packs to my cart before shipping showed less than cost of targets....grrrr I will give them a go, and report back here with my results. PS: I did love the ide...

Ray...that chart you sent answers 100% of my questions! Thanks so much! The pistol to get a new grip is a minty Feinwerkbau 103

Hello, I want to order my first set of aftermarket grips, as I do not currently belong to a shooting club yet I do not have the benefit of trying other shooters grips for size and fit. Rink grips offers 7 sizes from XXS to XXL, my hand measures 4.133 inches or 105mm wide across the knuckles, my fing...

Wow...those are some super nice clean cut holes!...I have been away from organized match shooting for 20 years, a recent purchase of beautiful Fienwerkbau match pistol has me looking for local matches to join, but want to practice a bit in my tiny apartment. I got some paper targets from Walmart but...
