Anschütz stands behind their products

Three weeks ago I damaged the thread on one of the butt plate length adjusting columns of my Anschütz 9003. I called every Anschütz dealer in USA searching for the part and the fastest any could get it was 90 days. Couple of weeks ago I emailed Anschütz in Germany explaining my problem and asking th...

This may be a dumb question but what did you guys mean with a "batch" or "lot" of pellets?
A 500 thin?
A ten 500 thin package?
What does it means?
Whatever amount is your pellets consumption during a shooting season.

I ordered a Styer LG110 , thats on account of my relationship with the dealer . At that level there aren't any bad shooters . Dealer support is probably the most important issue . Second to that is how the ergonomics work for you , what you are comfortable with and what you are confident in . Chris...

Why on earth would you want to use sub optimal pellets to train with ? The only reason I can think of is to save yourself a tiny amount of money. I think it is more to save some valuable time that is needed for training. Selecting "match lots" pellets requires to fix the gun's action to a...

Well, just a question for all of you who recomended the FWB 603 over a PCP:

mjfa: is the cocking effort in this rifle that hard? At 19 lbs cocking effort it is not that hard for a few shots, but when you realize it would takes over 60 shots in an hour and 45 minutes, then it makes quite a difference against the coking effort of a PCP which is meausred in ounces. I had a FW...

If there's no other choice, only then I would go with an SSP. A 60+ shots air rifle match will take its toll on energy, concentration and accuracy from the cocking effort required with an SSP airrifle like the FWB 603, through the course of the competition. If theres no SCUBA aircharging facility in...

I think all top level 10m air rifles are high quality great shooters. Most important factors on deciding which one to buy are: 1. Individual fit to the shooter 2. Availability and after sale service 3. Personal taste I shoot an Anschütz 9003 Premium and like it a lot. This is my third match air rifl...

the 9003 is really nice, but I don't think it's worth anything close to what it costs. Joseph, I do respect your opinion, but at the actual $$$$ vs €€€€ exchange rate, really don't see much price difference between the FWB 700 and the Anschütz 9003, at least here in the USA. I have shot both for aw...

Wood Has "Soul"
Highest score wins match, not soul. I don't think it's a matter of which material is the stock made of, but how it fits you.

All top end air rifles are excellent, and what mostly set them apart is the shooter/owner, who should choose the one that is more apealing to himself/herself, fits better their body shape, shooting posture and budget. My vote goes for the Anschutz 9003, because it nicely fits this criteria for me. h...

I use a pull through from the breech end with MP5 on a cleaning patch, followed by another cleaning patch with MP5 and several dry patches until they come out dry and clean. Clean the bore on a new airgun and after every 2000-3000 rounds.
