I just picked up a tired FWB Model 2 (the original gas gun). The trigger goes click-bang, a screw is missing from the grip, and the trigger blade is cracked and wobbly. The sights aren't optimum and the grip doesn't fit very well, either.
The good part is I didn't pay much for it and the test target is the classic "can't drop a pellet thru".
The annoying part is that I'm shooting tighter groups with it than with my well tweaked LP1.
Go figure!
Damned annoying, I say

Funny Thing Rover....
With all my pistols my FWB Model 2 Mini is still one of my favorite guns to shoot. Good solid build, everything about it feels nice.
Enjoy,
Joe

FWB 2
I have been shooting my Model 2 since I got back into competition last year. I can get C02 at the local welding store. My 10 pound cylinder lasts for months and only costs about $17 to fill it.
It shoots as well as those new $2,000 guns now available.
There are still parts available for it and custom grips too.
