I know the model 90 has the electronic trigger but what is the difference between the model 65 and the model 80.
I have the K58 and was wondering if the model 80 is just as good even though it is a springer.

The only difference in performance will be the smell of sauerkraut versus the aroma of garlic when fired.

The model 80 has a trigger mechanism that allows the user to adjust the trigger reach. You can see the differences in trigger mechanisms in the 10P Files maintained by our host, or to the factory manual for the 65/80 at the Feinwerkbau site:

thanks
I must be nuts but I just bought one in mint shape.
It looked beautiful.
Wonder what the FPS is-my K58 is around 470 fps.

The performance should be pretty close, depending on the state of the individual gun.

I found the RWS Hobby pellets to work exceptionally well in both, giving high end velocity with excellent accuracy.

Guess what
the guy that sold me the fwb 80 wanted to trade even - my K58 for his mint like new Fwb 80.
I said ok.
I think they are both worth around the same.
