    FWB Found a gem.

    Just before Easter weekend I bought this FWB 300 Junior. The seller asked if he could send after Easter, which was fine with me. Two weeks before this, from the same seller, I got another FWB and had to pay $55. shipping, delivered to my door. Which was fine with me. Today I had to go to...

    The range

    Thanks. I wanted an excavator ever since I was knee-high to a grasshopper. Drove my wife crazy for 40 years. She said over her dead body. Finally, for my 60th birthday, she said I could buy an excavator. She now says that was by far the best investment we ever made. I used for 3 years and sold...

    The range

    I finally finished the 47 yd. frame. Lots of open space. Behind the targets is a big Hemlock tree. I placed 3 cedar trees in front to protect it. Need to rearrange. Kinda threw targets on. Crow

    What springer did you shoot today?

    Are you talking the top head needs to be spun 180 deg? If so, I found the handle got in the way. A I don’t pivot the rest as much I do the table. The 48 yd. range I’m working on now is 25 yds. to the left of main range. I have to pivot the table, which is an auto body function now. ‘My cover is...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    I’m so amazed the union of the metal to the wood survived. Love the looks of your rifle. BSA is such a cool name. ‘Never forget back in the 60’s everyone had Honda 70’s and 90’s. My buddy Neil, only child got a BSA 250. Man was he king. Neil had the only Crosman 2240 .22 cal. pumper as well. Crow
