Is this maybe the FWB 75? Guy wants to sell it but I don't remember who made it. A springer of great precision? I asked for data and a photo so maybe I can come up with the identification. If you have any insight please share. Thanks and Be Well, Bandito.

If a 10 meter rifle? ....... DIANA 75 with the RWS a marketing brand for the USA market.
This my personal RWS / DIANA 75 HV model ... all the 75's mechanically are the same, stocks and sights differ tho.

Yep Diana 75 target rifle.
Do make sure to test it and make sure it's producing normal velocity. 75's are hard to get rebuild parts for.

Air rifle headquarters has the SEALS and replacement SPRINGS if required. unless someone fubared a rebuild attempt, not a lot else really wears out on these excellent recoiless match rifles.

parts hard to fine not really if you know where to look but there not here in the states
and if you use any seals that are not factory and are oversized good luck, 75's don't have normal piston that can be chucked up and spun
and there are more parts that are needed to repair them, then the springs and seals sometimes and all of those are in the rear cap area and you don't know what you need till you get together, so extras are needed
but that another story

the guys at Waffencenter Gotha will do a great job for you but the first time ordering will confuse the hell out of you but you can send Enrico an email or message me and I can walk you through it if you or anyone has questions
the seals aren't hard to do on a 75, it's the trigger assembly that needs to be remove that's the hard part

Biggest issues I've seen are the pistons. They do wear and an they can chip teeth. Pistons are like hens teeth.IME
Many moving parts in the design with many small c clips. Timing is critical with many other set ups in the mechanical design.
A gun not for beginners. Very fine guns. But as MH has mentioned parts are not easily found and it is so easy to damage what you have if you do not know what you are doing.
I have as MH, rebuilt many and owned many. Here is one Joe R sent me! This was a rebuilder's nightmare. Oddly all
parts and pieces were there
This was a Condor version . Same gun as the D75.They were all not branded DIANA. IN those days there were several importers as in the FWB 300/300s.
This gun was for real torn completely down to the bone. Try one sent to you like this if you want a challege.lol

New to the forum so if this has been answered, please bear with me. I have an RWS 75 that I have had for years. It needs new seals as there is very little pressure left. And who knows what else? My local Phoenix dealer told me they can’t get parts but recommended this site as a possible information on people who are specialists in 75s and have parts. If anyone knows of someone, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you.

Air Rifle Headquarters ...... They have SEAL SETS, BREECH SEAL, SPRING SETS on there site. Unless suffering from some larger mechanical issue ? that is generally all required parts wise. Next becomes a competent airgunsmith willing to work on them.
