Hi all,
I noticed that the FWB 103 was evidently produced with different grips, one that was a two-piece design and one that was a single piece. The latter seems more modern to me, is that correct?
Also I saw 103s with different shades of blue, a very strong blue as well as a pale, almost grey color. Is this also an indicator of the production time?
Where there any other changes during production?
Robert

Re: Different versions of FWB 103 and how to tell
The earlier version of the 103 was the deep blue version with the two-piece FWB grip design, the pale blue version was the latest version with the single piece Morini grip...Funny Farmer wrote:Hi all,
