Dear Hiep, Did you have this problem before you took the gun apart and replaced the seal and piston damper? If not, then first make sure that the breech seal is about flat with the action and not portruded, if it is portruded then maybe it is not installed properly and needs to go in a little more o...

Dear Phil, I understand your problem as I was in the same situation some time ago...in my case the sleeves were too short, jacket too loose, overalll lenght too short, etc. I was very frustrated and decided to start from scratch by using the Gehmann measuring chart, I then ordered their jacket...the...

Dear Kevin, Air guns in .22 caliber are not used in Olympic competitions... About your .22 RF rifles...Get any of the Anschutz models with a 54 action...the model will depend on your preference and in what you intend to use it for…they are all extremely reliable and very accurate... The 54 has a ver...

You’re very welcome Pauln… I forgot to mention that FWB also told me that they are working on a variation of the trigger for the AW 93 http://www.feinwerkbau.de/ceasy/modules/cms/main.php5?cPageId=132 so it can be used successfully in Rapid Fire competition… I suppose that they will make the trigger...

My Mistake Twice!

Yes, I was replying to Rob and he was indeed talking about the scaled down TARGETS and not the MECHANISMS...

Rob is right; these targets are available commercially...

Two in one!... I guess this was not my day...please accept my apologies.

Dear Guest, The CHEEKPIECE is as someone mentioned above, is IDENTICAL on both sides... The TWO ADJUSTING KNOBS do not really interfere with anything (chest or jacket) so if having them on the inside of the stock doesn't bother you, you will be fine.... THE COCKING LEVER is very easily switched to t...

Yes Phil...I was referring to the plastic housing but at the same time I was concerned about the "fragile" appearance of the rest of the rear sight. When you compare it to a Gehmann which is made of 100% CNC machined metal, the FWB looks pretty finicky. I did the same you did, I replaced t...

Dear Methosb, You ask: “Most rifle shooters shoot with the lens just behind the rear sight, quite a distance from the eye. What is the reason for this? " With the lens close to the rear sight you can pretty much use the lens as if it were "fixed" to the rear sight which is not allowed...

Dear David, Absolutely…the machine complies with this rule… The ctc of 300 mm is the same for the falling plates and turning targets when shot with air pistols...this machine is adjusted for shooting with air pistols but can easily be transformed for .22 RF if you ever wanted to do this (it takes ab...
