Great News!

I received re-verification from the previous owner that (a) he purchased the pistol new several years ago and (b) shot perhaps a hundred pellets through it.

FWB 103 - New Owner, Charging Question

I was able to acquire a very lightly used FWB 103 recently, and want to put it back into service.
