It's been a while since I went through this ordeal. In essence, the two tiny springs fit in the two pinholes on the receiver, and then the tiny ball bearings. When you install these, you will basically be pushing them down with the front corners of the rear sight. If unleashed, they will fly 14 feet...

FYI - Novus Plastic Polish #2 (no ammonia) is an ultrafine polish that is designed for cleaning haze from plexiglas. A little of this with light finger pressure took the buildup right off. It's very similar to auto clay, just more of a liquid. It's also excellent for buffing plexiglas watch crystals...

Feinwerkbau, fingerprints, and Flexopol Mittel

Does anyone have access to Flexopol Mittel, which is the polishing compound that FWB recommends to clean skin oil discoloration from the nickel finish on its guns? Flexopol looks a block of some kind of mild ammonia-free polish in a rubber binder, like a little bar of soap. To ship to the U.S., the ...

Been there, done that this week. My advice to anyone who attempts this is to be very careful, grease the little springs and bearings with lith grease, drop the rear sight elevation all the way down, be gentle, and put a plastic bag over the top of the AW93 while you are working (to catch any fliers)...

Re: Ranges

Do you live in the Detroit area? If so there is a very active Bullseye league in the winter months. I agree with you I have visited area public indoor ranges and will no longer, to many "Rambos" and un safe shooters.I shoot with the Oakland County Sportsmans Club. Jack Jack - Yeah, unfort...

Civilized indoor ranges around Detroit/Windsor Ontario?

Ok... I have major excitement. AW93 Light arrived today (it was not supposed to be a light but turned out to be just right). Trigger is insanely smooth and light. Still waiting on the iron sights - it's almost magic time. But... and this is a big but. Last week I was shooting my ancient Gold Cup at ...

If they made an FWB blue gun, it would probably cost $1,000.

How to fit adjustable International-style grips?

Ok... I have a set of AW93 M/L grips out. My hand measures 90mm across the wide part, but I have very narrow wrists. By the numbers, the M/L grip should be the right size... but: If I bring the palm rest all the way up to the top at the back and lowest possible point in the front, it just contacts m...

Brenzovich AW93 grips?

Does anyone know anything about the fixed custom grips Brenzovich is supplying for AW93s? Are they Vitarbos?

Of the other brands, do people have better luck with Nills or Rinks?

Thanks!
