its great to see on returning to this thread after a week out ,that so many mems have made a large number of positive and constructive replys about this special mark.my affair with this rifle are legendry on the bbs as with others ;it still a bit difficult to deduce what places this fwb in such a unique place ,ive got an idea its somewhere between its undoudted quality of performance and a percentage of nostalgia ,one backing up the other.
