My brother in law has/had one and it gave shotgun size groups. He compared it to my FWB 124 and was sick.

Nothing, it has been thunder and light rain all day. I was hoping it would be clear so we might have a chance of seeing the northern lights here in E. Texas, but no, last two nights also overcast. My sister over in western Mississippi sent some pictures she took at her hours and they looked good

In my opinion his work is above reproach. He has rebuilt at least 4 for me over the last few years. Not exactly cheap, but they came back working perfectly.

HW 75 is not a spring air but a single stroke pneumatic , Might go for a HW 45 though. My personal favorites are some old restored Feinwerkbau 65 and 80 models.

If you can find a good one, an older Feinwerkbau 65 or 80.

About 48 years ago, using a Feinwerkbau 124d with a receiver sight, a crow about 60 yards out in a tree over my father in law's garden.

What did I shoot today, nothing. The wind is gusting so strongly that If I go out and stand up to shoot like I prefer I will be weaving back and forth.

Yes, and they get better as the model numbers go up. I have a couple of 65's with the more sport type grips, and then a couple of 80's wit target gripps like those. The 65 is great and the 80 another world. I understand the 90 has a electronic trigger, I started to get one but learned that...

Personallly I prefer the HW 77 to the 97 because it mounts iron sights. I do have both and other than that they shoot about the same. I did get a AA Tx200 with walnut stock and hit the wood lottery with that one, and liking pretty wood it's a keeper. I really cannot discern any significant...

Nothing today, I went up to the VA for my annual eye exam and had them dilated so it's too bright outside, and things are a little blurry. Yesterday I finally made it to the range for my powder burners. I tried out a few new guns most important a CZ 457 Lux in .22 Mag. I 3 scopes set up in...

I have a IZH 46m, a HW 75, and several of the Daisy 747 and 777's

If you like the FWB65, then you will absolutely love the 80. I have a pair of each, so my son and I can shoot against each other when he is here. One of the features I like on the 80 is the ability to adjust the length of trigger pull. I shot my HW35e a bit this afternoon, rather casual...

Took my FWB Sport for a short spin this afternoon. I did not set anything up for shooting, just a hanging rimfire chicken swinger at about 15-20 yards and me sitting in a patio chair, no rest other than my arms.

Mine is 12400627

I have never seen a modern shotgun slug barrel like that. I have an early 70's Remington slug barrel that is simply a cylinder bore, ie smoothbore with rifle sights added, and a later aftermarket barrel that is rifled just like a normal rifle barrel.
