    FWB Info.

    Hi Dave,

    Just get on to the feinwerkbau.de site, click the Union Jack to see a "proper" language and you can click on the boxes above to find what you want and down load it.

    Every air gun Feinwerkbau have ever made has an owners handbook, exploded drawings and parts list.

    Hover over the box marked "service" and several menu's will open for you to choose from, and from this you should be able to find anything you want to see.

    Prices for the C25 are now a problem. Previous to the alert about the paint pots a dealer could get up to £400 for a really nice clean example with weights, tools, cylinder spanner and original handbook etc, and a private seller may offer one for £300 or so depending on condition etc.

    You have read about the prices to replace the cylinders with new ones, so I guess it is now up to the buyer to decide!

    Hi zooma,thanks again for the info, took the plunge and bought the C25. Very nice condition with 3 weights, spare clylinder,manual and tools, and the RFD gave me a large CO2 cylinder. Paid £400 so a good estimate. I have taken off 2 weights the 1 seems to do the trick. I really like this pistol, the build quality is phenominal. Rgds Dave.

    Nice One

    Nice one Dave!

    I hope you enjoy using it.

    I certainly enjoy my Feinwerkbau CO2 pistols, and know they can all outshoot the shooter!

    Stay in touch!

    I came accross an interesting write up on a German site, Babel fish translation:- .. the C25 contrary to the C20 however a special value within the CO2 10m pistols gives is it vertically under the run of attached CO2 tank. This is favourable, since the liquid carbon dioxide always is when shooting at the ground of the receiver and the gaseous collects itself over it. With a horizontal attached cartouche the liquid CO2 can perhaps arrive when shooting up to the valve, which can impair the accuracy of the weapon. Besides so also the gas consumption sinks

    My ex?

    Ah - with 3 barrel weights - mine also had 3 weights - I think they were optional, with only one supplied with the pistol when new.

    Good pistol - no problems - I am sure you will enjoy it, and Bob is good to deal with and can fix any problems if you should ever have any (doubtful).

    Nice to have an FWB expert locally - even if we hardly ever have any need to use him as FWB pistols rarely fail or go wrong!
