I am looking to purchase a FWB P30 or P34. Can anyone tell me a little bit more about this gun? User reviews? I have not found any negative reviews about it.

Thank you all,
John

I used a P34 for a few years. It is, like most Feinwerkbau Pistols, well made. The Absorber was interesting. I had the first variation, and the stock grip was typical of FWB fare at the time; lackluster, at best. The trigger was decent. I didn't like the balance, so I removed the barrel shroud and added a rod and weights to the trigger guard. 18 Months later, Feinwerkbau did the same thing, and called it a P-40. I got rid of it, as I just didn't seem to shoot it as well as my C-25. And honestly, one of my favorite and best shooting guns in the safe is my old Model 65. They are nice, if you can get one for a steal. I wouldn't pay more than $600 for one myself.

Thank you very much for the reply. I have heard some great things about the fwb p34 and p30 especially for the price. Do you know how long ago they were made? Is it a fairly new model of air pistol?

Off of the top of the ol' noggin, I want to say P-34 was around from about 1997 to about 2000. The P30 was a few years before that. I think they still were producing the C-25 and C-55 at the time. Not new at all. Parts are still available and sight elements from the Model 65 work on the subsequent models through P-34. They show up used for between $600 to $1000.

thank you everyone who replied. You really helped me out. I would like to try one out. Now when it comes down to it should I get the P30 or P34?

I have seen the P30 sell for 650 and the P34 for around 800.

Thank you
